Chapter 271: Trouble

"Yes, since she started it, should she end it?" Hanna pushed on. She hoped her grandmother would not let this go. Even if she failed to get Hazel to come to her wedding and express good will, she definitely would not let Hazel live a good life. "So, that is where the rumor came from. Do you all know how difficult business has been because of it?" Hanna's father walked in to the room fuming.

"What do you mean?" His mother asked.

"We have this new deal we have been trying to partner with others, but they kept saying, if I can betray my family, they cannot work with me. All day, this is what I have been hearing! I thought it was James Grey just messing with me, but now, this?" he explained. "Is something wrong with the company?" Hanna asked hurriedly. She was not the only one that wanted to know.

They were considered quite the affluent family for those who were not aware, but in truth they were at most a slightly richer. Their company could not even be considered under top one thousand in the city.

Hanna was worried. Her future in laws were equals to them financially. They more or less moved round the same circle. She already knew that her future m other-in-law only accepted her because their Greyson family was not below theirs.

If something happens to her father's company, her marriage could be in jeopardy.

"We are already having problems because James Grey is back and we are tied to a lot of his enemies. This deal was supposed to get us out of it!" Mr. Greyson said, "I don't care what you do. You better get that girl to fix this, or else I will disown you." he was addressing Hanna who could not believe her ears at her father's words.

"What nonsense are you sprouting!" Sandra shouted at her husband, "Why do you blame all these on Hanna? How is this her fault?"

"How is this not her fault? Wasn't she the one who had slept with her cousin's boyfriend. Now that girl is out to destroy our family, yet she doesn't want to take the blame?" he asked.

"What about you? Are also going to blame not pulling money out to treat your sister in law's illness on Hanna too?" Sandra fumed.

"Enough! You daughter better fix this, or else I will throw her out," he said and turned away.

"It's fine. I will go and see my daughter tomorrow," Sandra Greyson said and walked upstairs with determined steps.
