<h4>Chapter 130: A Show of Loyalty</h4>


    "Brandon, are you free? Can youe and keep mepany?"


    "Yes, I can. Are you at home?"


    "Yes, I am," Hannah replied, her voice incredibly gentle. Despite Brandon’s soft tone, his face remained expressionless.


    "I’ll be there right away. Wait for me."


    Brandon hung up the phone, took a long look at E’s ssroom, and headed straight for the Davis household.


    Since that scandal, Hannah rarely went out, even taking a break from school, only asionally going out to do volunteer work.


    She found excuses to decline invitations to ssmates’ gatherings because they were just waiting tough at her.


    If she wasn’t doing volunteer work, she stayed at home.


    But staying at home, apart from surfing the inte, watching TV, movies, and reading novels, became tiresome after a while.


    She had thought about traveling abroad, but the country she wanted to visit was experiencing an outbreak of infectious diseases, so she dismissed the idea.


    With time on her hands, Hannah thought of Brandon.


    Although Brandon wasn’t as outstanding as Eric, he still had his meritspared to other men.


    Moreover, Hannah only considered him apanion to pass the time.


    When Brandon arrived, Brianna wasn’t home, so he headed straight to Hannah’s room.


    Hannah wasbing her soft hair, dressed in a thin nightgown. Seeing this, Brandon quickly locked the door.


    Since reconciling, they saw each other every two or three days, but had never been intimate.


    "Brandon, you’re here?" Hannah smiled softly, walking seductively towards him.


    Brandon’s eyes were full of affection as he kissed her forehead, "Sweetheart, I’m here to keep youpany..."


    His eyes flickered with desire.


    Hannah hugged him tightly, her soft body causing a physical reaction in him.


    "Kiss me!" Hannah whispered, tilting her face up to look at Brandon tenderly.


    Brandon hesitated, recalling Hannah’s scandal with Mr. Taylor.


    This woman... she’s for everyone!


    "What’s wrong? Are you holding a grudge because of that... Brandon, you’re my man. Don’t you believe me? That bastard forced me, I didn’t agree to it, and nothing happened between us..."Hannah’s voice was filled with grievance.


    Brandon quickly shook his head, "No, you’re just so beautiful, I... I was momentarily speechless."


    Heughed lightly, suddenly pressing Hannah against the door and kissing her fiercely.


    They were already familiar with each other’s bodies.


    In bed, they were the perfect pair, the mostpatible partners.


    Every time, Brandon could satisfy Hannah.


    Soon, the room was filled with the sounds of passion. Half an hourter, Hannahy weakly on the bed, holding Brandon close.


    "Darling, you’re still amazing!" Hannahughed. It had been months since theirst intimate encounter.


    Brandon chuckled, kissing her cheek, "Of course, you’re so enchanting, how could I not be moved?"


    "Do you still love E?"


    "How could I love her?" Brandon raised an eyebrow, holding her tightly, "You’re the only one I love, silly!"


    "Hmph, I thought you were like Eric, loving that slut!"


    Hannahined, surprising Brandon, "You’re saying Eric loves E?"


    "Yes, this morning Dad had Eric take her to school. I don’t see what’s so great about that slut, Mr. Nelson is actually interested in her!"


    Hannah was filled with resentment. She thought Brandon was still the same as before, never betraying her behind her back!


    Hannah was also narcissistic, believing her charm could make Brandonpletely devoted to her.


    Little did Hannah know that Brandon had different ns brewing in his mind.


    "Why are you so angry? Why bother with her? Did she offend you?" Brandon asked with a lightugh, his hands gently massaging her.


    "Of course she did! Because of her, Dad doesn’t spoil me anymore, and even my brother was driven out of the house because of her! Every time I see her, I want to peel off her skin and drink her blood!" Hannah never pretended to be someone she wasn’t in front of Brandon.


    Before their fallout, Hannah never hid her true self, and Brandon had promised to help her suppress that wretched girl.


    Brandon smiled and said gently, "Don’t be angry, it’s not good for your health."


    "Brandon, you seem so indifferent, I feel like you’ve changed!" The old Brandon would have assured her that he would stand up for her and evene up with schemes, like marrying E to get her shares and then silencing her for good.


    But now, Brandon wouldn’t even mention these things.


    "What can I do? Do you want me to kill her? Don’t you want your dad to get those shares? Once he has them, you can devise a n to transfer them to us... but now E has Eric."


    Brandon sighed deeply.


    "One day they’ll break up, and then it’s your turn to act!" Hannah, hearing his reasoning, didn’t pursue the matter further.


    They spent a good while in each other’s arms. Afterward, Brandon got up, had lunch with her, and left hurriedly after taking a phone call.


    In the car, Brandon smiled, took out his phone, and yed the recording he had just made.


    The recording started from Hannah’sints right after their intimate moment.


    Hannah had no idea that her trusted lover was betraying her.


    Brandon sent the recording to E.


    "I hope... this can help her. This recording isn’t proof of a crime, but at least it’ll show her that Hannah means her harm!"


    Brandon’s eyes were filled with tenderness.


    E received the recording and listened to it with her earphones, a cold smile spreading across her face.


    What was Brandon trying to do? Betray Hannah to gain her favor?


    Even so, she would not be grateful!


    If he could betray Hannah, he could betray her too. Besides, he was the one who hurt her the most in her previous life!


    No matter what, she would never trust Brandon, not even as an ordinary friend!


    However, the recording had some use. E uploaded it to her email and deleted it from her phone.


    "E, how about having dinner at my ce tonight?" Chloe suddenly grabbed her, smiling excitedly.


    "What’s got you so happy?"


    E found Chloe’s smile unusually sincere, which seemed odd.


    "My brother is bringing his girlfriend home, so we want you to join us for dinner!" Chloe blinked, and E quickly shook her head, refusing.


    "No, I have a date tonight, but thank you!" Charles had once had feelings for her. Now that he finally had a girlfriend, how could she intrude?


    She was genuinely happy for him and hoped he would always be happy.


    In this life, she had quickly gotten together with Eric, so Charles must have given up on her.


    That night, at the Carter family home.


    Charles did bring his girlfriend home, and that woman was none other than Nora.


    Nora and Charles had a chaotic night together, and although Charlester made it clear he wouldn’t be with her, Eric used other means to free him from her entanglement.
