Chapter 240 Hannah never really liked the Hawke family. They were the epitome of high society, always marketing themselves in the most ostentatious ways.

And Dorian? He never left a good impression. In fact, all four of the Hawke brothers rubbed her the wrong way. They acted like Arabella was the center of the universe.

Sure, protecting the sister was understandable, but these guys took it to a whole new, brainless level. Plus, ever since Hannah discovered Miranda's connection to the Hawke family, her dislike for them intensified.

Her admiration for Miranda was so deep that she was practically itching to confront the Hawkes on her sister's behalf.

Dorian's face had turned a sickly shade, but perhaps in an effort to avoid conflict, he chose not to argue with Hannah. Instead, he turned to Miranda, his voice laced with concern. "Are you okay?"

Seeing Miranda's lack of reaction, Dorian added in a serious tone, "I happened to be passing by and saw Adam causing you trouble."

Miranda looked at the cup of coffee in front of her, a slight smirk playing on her lips.

Hannah glanced at Dorian, and for the first time, she thought she sensed a hint of unease in the young CEO.

Dorian paused for a few seconds. "Arabella has left the Hawke family."

Miranda raised an eyebrow with a smile. "Oh, and why should that matter to me?"

She fixed her gaze on Dorian and continued, "And tell me, Mr. Hawke, are you so free these days? 'Happened to be passing by'? Or did you happen to stage Adam's little performance?"
