Chapter 1409
Daniela, this woman had been living the life of Riley since day one. She always got whatever she wanted. And thereâs someone to clean it up whatever mess she got into. And since she got away with bloody everything, Daniela might do something super risky. So, to protect herself, Hannah needed to find a way to save her
Overt
On the way to a meeting, she red calling Steven again three times. And all she got was the same old story. Even though it was broad daylight. Stevenâs phone was still off. What a cold fish he was!
Steven ignoring her calls might mean he was cool with Daniela setting her up. She couldnât pin her hopes on him anymore. As for Comelia and Marcus, Marcus couldnât even take care of himself right now, let alone help her. After much thought, she turned to Jarvis, whose contact info she was just added. Jarvis was from a big shot family in the capital, and he had definitely got the clout to help her out. So, she shot Jarvis a message Hey, can we video chat?]
Instead of replying with a text, Jarvis called her on video. âYou summoned me. I gotta respond. Whatâs up, dating?â Jarvis asked.
Hannah flashed a smile, Tm in a bit of a pickle.â
Jarvis said. âOhâ¦â From his tone, she could tell he had probably seen the news, but he didnât seem keen on helping.
Hannah asked, âCan we make a deal?â
Jarvis replied. âA deal? Canât you live without making deals?â
Hannah laughed, of Iâm not making deals, do you really expect me to talk feelings with you?â
Jarvis said. âWe certainly donât have feelings.â
Hannah asked. So, will you help me?â
Jarvis seemed to be in a car. He adjusted to a comfortable position and said. âThis time itâs the Salazar family from Harbor City after you. You must know theyâre big fish there. Not many can beat them.â
Hannah said. âEven though we just met, I know the power and influence your family holds. If you help me, Daniela will surely back off out of respect for you.â
Jarvis said, fl help you, whatâs in it for me?â
Hannah said, â1 own a mub-million dollar property in Riverton, Blueshell Mansion, next to Marcus from the Hardley family. If you help me through this crisis, Iâll give it to you?
Jervis asked, âDo you think I need a house?â
Hannah said, âYou may not need a house, but you need a chance to get close to Comelia. After they retum to Riverton, Comelia and Marcus might settle in the Blueshell Mansion. Wouldnât it be convenient if you lived there too?â
Using her good friend Comelia as bait might be wrong, but it was the only thing Hannah could think of that might tempt Jarvis.
Jarvis chuckled. âHannah, are you losing your marbles? The Hardley Group has declared bankruptcy and there are even rumors that Marcus is dead. Iâve looked into it and heâs very much alive. Can you spill the beans about why heâs faking his death?â
