Shirley was not someone people saw often. She rarely showed up in public, and when she did, she never spoke to the press.

To the people of Harmonfield, she was an image of cold beauty, a quiet heiress of the Dunn family, whose wealth and power were only whispered about. But no one had ever heard her speak like this before.

Her voice was sharp, cutting through the silence. "Arrogant? What does it matter if I insult your family?"

And she was right.

The Dunns were a giant in Harmonfield, and the Millers? They were nothing. It was like watching someone crush a bug beneath their heel.

For the first time, the Millers saw the full weight of Shirley's authority.

She was not just some spoiled child.

She was the head of Dunn Group, the most powerful company in the city.

Her words held the force of an entire empire behind them.

Hank felt a cold sweat trickle down his back.

For a moment, he froze. But then, years of experience helped him regain his composure.

He clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and stepped forward. "Fine, Ms. Dunn. If that's what you want, I won't argue."

He paused, his gaze shifting around the room. "But, before you act, hear me out.

"You might not fully understand what's happening here.

"Even your grandfather would listen to me before jumping to conclusions," he added.

The reporters shifted, their attention now on him. Hank nodded to them. "What do you all think?"

They were all watching now. Hank continued, eyes locked on Shirley.
