The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never
Chapter 1787

“There are steps ahead.

Take it slow,” Bryson reminded her.

“Okay,” Hannah responded softly.

As they descended the steps, Hannah broke the silence.

“What’s the situation with the police?”

Guiding her carefully, Bryson replied, “The attackers were hired thugs, all with criminal records.

On my way here, Officer Stevenson called.

He mentioned they were merely hired hands, unaware of their employer’s identity.

”

Hannah’s response was composed.

“I suspected as much.

We may never uncover who hired them.

”

“But I have other avenues to explore,” Bryson said.

If Hannah could see, she’d notice the determination gleaming in his eyes.

“For now, you’ll stay at the mansion.

I’ll handle any matters that arise.

You must inform me beforehand if you plan to leave.

”

Walking steadily with Bryson’s assistance, Hannah appeared to outsiders as though her blindness were inconsequential.

Sensing the gentler tone in Bryson’s voice, Hannah couldn’t help but smile.

“Mr.

Mitchell, I’m not a child.

Do I really need to report every outing?”

“Yes, given your current condition, you must entirely rely on me for assistance.

”

Despite his authoritative words, Bryson’s tone remained gentle, and Hannah didn’t take offense.

“Understood,” she replied casually.

“I’ll lean on you and Grace for now.

”

Her nonchalant demeanor belied the gravity of her situation.

Upon returning to the Mitchell family’s mansion, Bryson promptly contacted Saul.

When Saul learnt about Hannah’s condition, he was ready to drop everything and come over immediately.

Hannah quickly interjected, “My eyes aren’t an urgent matter, Saul.

Whether they get better or not, it won’t change overnight.

I just want you to evaluate my condition so I have a clearer understanding of what’s going on.

There’s no need to rush.

”

Saul’s voice crackled with frustration.

“You silly girl! If this isn’t urgent, what is? Your eyes are no trivial matter.

”

Hannah shrank back slightly, feeling chastised.

“Got it.

I’ve had a long day.

It’s late now, so come over tomorrow.

”

Saul glanced at his watch, realizing it was already past 6 p.

m.

He had already left his lab and removed his sterile gown.

“Fine, just make sure Bryson sends me the address tomorrow.

I’ll come by and check on you.

”

“Alright, I will.

”

After hanging up, Bryson helped Hannah sit on the bed.

He knelt beside her, gently tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear, his gaze filled with concern.

“What would you like for dinner? I’ll cook tonight.

”
