The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never
Chapter 1925

“Melina!” Brodie yelled, but she had already hung up, indifferent to his threats.

The abrupt end tone echoed from the phone, darkening Brodie’s expression.

“Mr.

Moreno…”

At that moment, a man in formal attire entered the room and asked with deference, “What is our next move?”

Taking a deep breath, Brodie muttered, “The financial situation is dire.

We’ll have to resort to different tactics.

”

Looking puzzled, the man asked, “What exactly do you mean, sir?”

“Order all projects to halt.

Gather funds and establish contact with the Lyons family!” Brodie instructed firmly.

The man’s eyes widened in surprise when he heard this.

“But Mr.

Moreno, we haven’t dealt with the Lyons family in years.

Why would they help us now?”

“Money will do the convincing.

They won’t turn it down if the price is right,” Brodie replied confidently.

The man hesitated for a moment before muttering, “It’s a huge risk, sir.

What if it doesn’t work?”

Brodie shot him a stern look.

“This is our last shot! If we don’t defeat Bryson, we’ll be the ones driven out of Valmere! Contact them immediately and request assistance.

”

“Understood, sir.

”

The individual who had tampered with the car in the restaurant’s parking lot was apprehended the following day.

With Bryson occupied at the company, Hannah took Dotson to the police station.

She was already quite familiar with the place, having been there so often recently.

Led by an officer, they met the young man responsible for sabotaging the vehicle.

He looked nervous under the watchful eyes of the police and Hannah.

Hannah scrutinized him closely before turning to the officer beside her.

“He intentionally damaged someone else’s car—attempted murder.

I want to press charges to the fullest extent.

”

The man, visibly shaken by her words, blurted out, “No, please! I was just following orders! I was paid-I don’t know anything else…”

“Who hired you? How much were you paid?” Hannah pressed.

Still trembling, the man quickly named the mastermind, saying, “I saw her when she paid me.

It was Ryleigh Hopkins, the daughter of the Hopkins family! I remember seeing her in a magazine! Trust me, I’m telling the truth!”

The officer nodded and said, “We’ve already checked her background.

She isn’t at her residence, and we’re tracking her down.

”

Hannah faced the officer and asked, “Do you have her identification details?”

“Yes, but we’ve checked flights and other travel methods with no leads so far,” the officer replied.

Hannah nodded slightly and said, “Let me handle it.

I’ll need access to a computer.

”
