Chapter 230
“This is my private business, What’s it to you?” Andrea’s heart was pounding wildly, her palms slick with sweat. “You said you’d take care of me. You call this taking care of me?
“Spying on me, digging through my personal life? Don’t you think that’s way out of line?”
He still had no idea she was an imposter. As long as she played this right, she could still slip away when she wanted. Even if she couldn’t get anything from him, she could always wring something out of Rebecca.
And if worst came to worst, she could just sell everything he’d given her before–including the house.
After all, he was already getting suspicious.
Jeffrey’s eyes grew a shade darker.
Gregory jumped to defend Mr. Hanson. “Ms. Smith and Mr. Garcia did all that snooping without telling Mr. Hanson. He didn’t order any of it.”
“Oh really? So when he claimed he was broke but still had people digging into my life—you’re saying that wasn’t his doing either?” Andrea shot back, her anger clear.
Gregory remained serious. “When something seems out of the ordinary, it’s only natural to look into it.”
“From now on, I want you and your friends to stop investigating me and start respecting my privacy!” Andrea said, her voice unwavering. “If you can’t do that, then just stop making promises you can’t keep.”
Gregory’s brows drew together.
He wasn’t having it at all.
He turned to Jeffrey, clearly backing him up. “Mr. Hanson, you can’t agree to that.”
“Tell Stanley and Riley Smith to stop snooping around,” Jeffrey said, his obsidian eyes growing hazy.
“Mr. Hanson!” Gregory called out, his voice edged with anxiety.
After all the digging they’d done to expose her, they’d finally got a chance to cut her loose for Mr. Hanson. If they pulled back now, everything they’d uncovered would go to waste.
Jeffrey looked up again, his gaze calm and unwavering. “Just follow my orders.”
Gregory looked like he wanted to say something, but held his tongue. In the end, he called up Stanley and passed along Jeffrey’s orders.
Stanley looked genuinely confused. “Why?”
Gregory explained that Andrea had come by to confront them.
Stanley’s voice was flat. “Got it.”
