I am going to protect her
“Mr. Donald is gonna be here soon, you should be back home before 9:30,” Brandon said and Hannah nodded before walking out of the house.
Hannah had taken the kids to school, and after then she went home straight, although she didn’t get home in time because of traffic.
She parked her car outside the compound and gave the car key to the chauffeur to park the car in the parking lot while she went inside the house.
She noticed a black Porsche parked outside, she didn’t recognize whose car it was but she was sure it was Mr. Donald’s car. He had arrived.
Immediately she walked inside the house, she met Brandon and Mr. Donald talking while they shook hands. This means only one thing, he just came not quite long.
“Oh, my wife is here! Come here honey” Brandon said and Hannah scoffed inwardly.
Honey? Unbelievable, she thought as she walked towards them with a smile on her face.
“Hi, Mr. Donald,” Hannah said and shook hands with Donald.
“you are looking so beautiful. I asked Brandon if you have a sister, I would love to marry her because I’m sure she’s as beautiful as you” Donald said and Hannah and Brandon laughed.
“Let’s go have breakfast first,” Brandon said and Donald smiled.
“No, why the rush to eat? Business first. Let’s sign the contract and make it official, then we would have all the time to eat, drink and celebrate” Mr. Donald said and both Hannah and Brandon stared at each other.
“What do you think Mrs. Colby,” Donald asked and Hannah smiled.
“Yeah, you are right. Business first” Hannah said in response and forced herself to smile.
“Common, let’s go to my study room,” Brandon said and they all walked upstairs to the study room.
Brandon sat on his chair, while he offered Mr. Donald a seat. Hannah stood beside Brandon who was sitting on his chair.
“My PA, drafted the contract already, here it is,” Mr. Donald said as his PA who had come with him brought out a file from the bag he was holding, and put it on the table.
Brandon took it and stared at it and gave it to Hannah to read.
“You know, Mr. Donald I have been wanting us to be business partners for a very long time but you refused but all of a sudden you agreed, and I wonder why,” Brandon said and Mr. Donald laughed.
“I had so many companies wanting to partner with me then and their offers were much bigger than yours, I just had to go for the bigger fish. You know this is how we run the business, we always go for the bigger fish” Mr. Donald said Brandon smiled and nodded in response and then turned to Hannah who was still reading the contract.
“Honey, what do you think about the contract and partnering with his company?” Brandon asked and Hannah wondered why he was so sweet all of a sudden. This man is good at pretending, she didn’t know why but the fact that he was calling her honey instead of her name is making her angry, she thought angrily.
He was only putting on a show to act as if he loves her, is that even necessary, it’s not like we both love each other, Hannah thought.
Mr. Donald smiled as he stared at both of them, isn’t he the CEO of the company, why ask for her opinion, Mr. Donald thought.
“There’s something off about the contract… and I think partnering with him is gonna be a bad idea,” Hannah said Donald raised his head and his eyes met with that of Hannah.
“What? But why? Everything is written in the contract? What’s wrong with it, I reviewed it myself to make sure everything is perfect” Mr. Donald said and Brandon sighed softly.
“I know what you are planning, Mr. Donald. I know you do not just want to partner with BRC. co, you are planning on using my company to your advantage” Brandon said and Mr. Donald stared at him with no expression on his face.
“What are you talking about?” Donald asked
“I know you are a mafia lord and you run a drug company in Venezuela. Your goods have been held by the FBI in El Paso, and they are trying to investigate, if they find out you own it and you are a mafia lord, they gonna hunt you and everything you worked so hard to build and you wanna use me and my company as collateral to bail yourself from all this” Brandon said and Donald opened his mouth wide in shock and Brandon smiled.
“You wonder how I knew about all of this? Well, I didn’t know at first, but my wife found out about all of this and brought it to my notice, ” Brandon said and stared at Hannah with a smile on his face.
Donald stared at Hannah who stared at him with no expression on her face.
“How the hell did she find out about all of this?” Donald said as he stared at Hannah who stared at him with an innocent look on her face. He didn’t know why, the first time he met this woman, he knew there was something about her. She’s more than anyone thinks she is.
“Don’t give me that look. Do you think you can mess with my family and get away with it? Nah!!! Never” Hannah said and Donald gritted his teeth and stood up, Brandon stood up immediately.
“I would advise you to leave immediately Mr. Donald or I will ask the security to escort you,” Brandon said and Mr. Donald gave them one last evil glare before walking out of the office and out of the house.
Immediately, he left… Brandon turned to Hannah and stared at her straight in her eyes like he was searching for something.
He had remembered Hannah coming to him in the study room at midnight and telling him he found out everything about Donald. He did some digging too and found out it was true. They then came up with a plan.
He wondered where Hannah had got all the information about Mr. Donald, he wondered who her source was.
“Would you stand there and keep staring at me or you’ll get out of my way?” Hannah said jolting Brandon out of his thought.
Brandon smiled and moved out of her way. Hannah wondered what was making him smile. She scoffed.
“Thank you for saving my company,” Brandon said and Hannah nodded before walking out of the study room.
Immediately after she walked out, Liam entered the study room.
“Has Donald left?” Brandon asked as he sat back on the chair.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yes,” Liam said in response and Brandon nodded.
“You and Mrs. Mackenzie make a good team,” Liam said and Brandon chuckled.
“I do not regret making her the COO. Now I’m thinking it’s one of the best decisions I have made in my life” Brandon said in response.
“But you know Donald is not gonna let things go like this, he’s gonna be coming for her,” Liam said
“I know, that’s why I’m going to protect her. She’s my responsibility now” Brandon said in response.
