Her parents worked in a branch of the familypany, and their climb up the corporatedder was a struggle.


    They had sent her to live with her grandparents, hoping she could charm them into providing some resources to help their careers.


    But her parents had spoiled her too much, and she was incapable of fawning over the elderly.


    As a result, her grandparents had offered very little help over the years.


    But now, things were different. If she could help Hannah, her grandparents would surely see that she was useful.


    Maybe they would show her a little favor and pass some resources on to her parents. And besides, she genuinely loved this kind of thing.


    "Since you''re so willing to help me, I''ll leave it in your hands. I''m just too busy, with a mountain of things waiting for me. If Lionel keeps harassing me, it will seriously affect my work."


    Hannah let out a long sigh, her expression a mix of reluctance and resignation.


    When Cherry heard Hannah was really entrusting this to her, she was filled with joy. She shot up from her seat and gave Hannah a respectful bow.


    "Don''t worry, Hannah. If that man dares to bother you again, I''ll make him wish he hadn''t!"


    "Alright then, it''s all yours. I need to go upstairs and get some work done."


    "Okay!"


    Cherry was thrilled at the prospect of taking down a scumbag. She was already messaging her contacts in the media and a few social media influencers, telling them to be on standby. The moment something happened, she would let them know so they coulde and help.


    Meanwhile.


    After Quennel''s visit, Lionel fell into a deep state of reflection.


    He sat in his study, watching the security footage of Sandra in her room.


    He hadn''t actually given her free run of the house; he had confined her to her room. If Quennel hadn''t insisted an seeing her she wouldnt have


    Wh


    But if he told Hannah he had imprisoned Sandra and that nothing had happened between them...


    Even if he provided the security footage, Hannah probably wouldn''t watch it, let alone believe him.


    So, the best solution now was to take Sandra somewhere else and lock her up, only bringing her out when he needed her.


    After some thought, Lionel ordered his men to put Sandra in a car, and he drove toward the Rosenberg family estate.


    If he was going to imprison her, the safest ce was the abandoned underground prison from before.


    Locking her up anywhere else was risky. What if Sandra found a way to escape? That would ruin everything.


    He had gone to great lengths to find her so she could act as his witness, but things hadn''t gone ording to n.


    But just because she wasn''t useful at the moment didn''t mean he could just let her


    go.


    Who knew? She might be useful again in the future.


    When Sandra''s blindfold was removed, she found herself in a familiar room stained with blood, the air thick with its metallic scen She instinctively stumbled back, Staring attionel in terror. ''


    "Are you insane? Why did you bring


    me back here? What are you doing? I told you. I''d be your strategist, that I''d help your Why?
