Chapter 1786

Hank chuckled. "Hope I didn't make things awkward, Ms. Driscoll. I just arrived in Gabo Creek, and the moment I met Hannah, it was love at first sight. I figured I'd bring her along today. I hope you don't mind?"

Scarlett smiled, but it did not reach her eyes. "Why would I mind? You've clearly got charm and skill. I mean, to win over Ms. Keller in such a short time? That's impressive."

She gave a low chuckle and teased, "Judging by how close you two are, I wouldn't be surprised if you already slept together! I'm pretty direct when I speak. I hope you both don't take offense!"

Hannah flushed, a mix of embarrassment and irritation on her face. Even so, she did not deny it, which was as good as admitting it.

On the other hand, Hank looked smug, practically glowing with pride. "Hannah and I are genuinely in love. Some things just happen naturally, and we couldn't help ourselves."

Scarlett's smirk. "Passion between a man and a woman isn't a crime. But from what I've heard, Mr. Keller Senior is known for being very strict with his daughters. He may not be so thrilled about this."

Hank puffed up with arrogance and smugness. "I'm a Special Ops agent. I won't say too much about my status, but at the very least, I'm more than worthy of Hannah!"

Hannah looked at him with starry eyes. "Hank is a hero who saves the world, a handsome and cool agent. My dad is just an old-fashioned man, and my business is none of his concern!"

Scarlett did not press further, but inwardly, she sneered in disgust. She thought Hannah was just another brainless tramp.

And Hank? He came from Chetvine, so there's no way he was innocent. He was nothing but a scumbag in a Special Ops uniform.
