<b>Anabel </b><b>shot </b>back, <b>“</b>Guess homewreckers really are impatient can’t wait to get into bed with a married man, hutzz
<b>Those </b>around them shot m and Hannah looks of disgust.
Hannah felt the sting of their scorn and red at Anabel, icy as a de. “Liam and I are in love. Aría trapped Liam into mardage to get his mand. marriage was a mistake from the start.”
Anabel leapt to her feet, furious. “Everyone knows Aria risked her life to get your money back from the scammers! Say another word and F’ll rid yone mouth off!”
Hannah retorted coldly, “With a mouth like yours, it’s clear what kind of family raised you.”
A low<b>, </b>icy voice cut through the room. “The Shaw family did.”
Everyone turned to the door.
Kim stood there, his gaze sweeping over Liam and Hannah, who stared at him in shock.
How could it be Kim?
“Kim!” Anabel ran over<b>, </b>grinning as she took his arm.
Kim frowned, looking down at her. “How many times have you skipped ss now? And why do you alwayse to Mandino City?<i>” </i>
Anabel pouted. “You’re here, aren’t you?”
Kim ignored her, sitting down to talk to the officers. After hearing what happened, he gave Anabel a frosty look. “How much do you want <b>for </bpensation?”
Liam managed a strained smile. “Mr. Shaw, we had no idea Anabel was your cousin. Since that’s the case, let’s just let this go.”
Hannah, unable to hold back, asked, “Kim, Anabel is…?”
“She’s my uncle’s daughter,” Kim said simply.
Kim’s uncle was the head of the Shaw family in Kanit City–a power yer you didn’t cross lightly, and the Cole Group had business ties <b>with </b>them.
Upsetting Anabel was almost as bad as offending Kim’s uncle himself.
Hannah’s fists clenched in frustration, her anger boiling. She took a deep breath and tried onest time. “Kim, Aria must have said something to Anabe That’s why she attacked us.”
Anabel rolled her eyes. “That’s bull.”
“Anabel.” Kim’s tone was a warning, and Anabel swallowed her words.
Kim insisted onpensation.
Liam finally relented and epted.
As Kim left the station with Anabel, he turned and said, “You two might want to check the trending news–maybe think twice before <b>using </b>people
next time.”
Once outside, Liam and Hannah fell behind, checking their phones–only then did they realize the scam syndicate had been bust
Liam muttered, “Since when did Aria have the skills to help the police catch scammers? The Saxon family must’ve <b>gone </b><b>all </b>out <b>to </b>clear her name<b>.” </b>
<b>Chapter </b>211.
<b>The </b>Fletchers <b>and </b><b>the </b>Saxons were rted. Fryderyk <b>worked </b>at the station…
<b>The </b><b>connections </b>were <b>obvious</b>,
<b>The </b><b>day </b><b>he’d </b>returned to Huthailia, it was Hannah’s words that had convinced Liam Aria’s money was dirty.
He <b>tightened </b>his grip on his phone. “Hannah, let’s not talk like that anymore.”
She nodded. “I know. If I say anything now, everyone will just think I’m jealous and lying about Aria.”
Liam opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
He felt something inside him copse.
Meanwhile, Anabel piped up, “Kim, this is the way to the high–speed rail station. I’m not going back<i>.</i>”
Kim shot her a sideways nce. “Then where are you going?”
Anabel shrugged. “It’s not like I have ss tomorrow. I told Mom already…”
“I don’t have time to stay with you.”
“I’m going to Owen’s,” she said.
“Fine.” Kim switchednes and headed straight for Owen’s apartment.
When the elevator doors opened, Kim said, “Go on, knock yourself. I’m out.”
<b>“</b>Okay!” Anabel rang the bell. A few secondster, the door swung open.
<i>“</i>Aria?” Anabel blinked, startled, and started to back away. “Sorry, I must have the wrong door.”
She turned to leave, but Aria’s voice stopped her, soft and clear. “Looking for Owen?”
Anabel froze, her eyes widening in surprise. “Wait… Are you Owen’s girlfriend?”
