Hannah held her phone and glanced at Lorenzo.

“I need to take this call outside.

You can chat with Mr.

Ortega,” she said casually.

As she moved to leave, two guards suddenly blocked her path.

Surprised, Hannah turned to Jeffry, her eyebrows raised in confusion.

“What’s wrong? Can’t I even step out to answer a call?” she questioned.

She slowly lifted her hand, showing it was empty.

“Look, I’m not armed.

If you’re doubtful, feel free to search me.

Her voice was softer now, seemingly trying to avoid any further trouble.

Being from the Compton family, she must know the consequences of a scene could be dire.

Jeffry shook his head.

“No need, Miss Moore.

I trust you,” he assured her, signaling the guards to step aside.

With a relieved sigh, Hannah lowered her hand and exited with her phone.

After she left, some of her entourage remained outside.

She found a quiet spot nearby and began her call.

Meanwhile, the villa’s guards kept an eye on Hannah.

Just then, a group tried to force their way in, drawing the guards’ attention.
