Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1189
“I think Lynnie is a nice person, and she cares about me too. What Felicia did was wrong, but her actions had nothing to do with her daughter,” Hannah continued after a brief pause.
Lynnie? Heh, you two sure got all chummy real quick… Did she brainwash you into defending her or something? Lyna’s a scheming woman, and her mother is no different! I may not have any evidence at the moment, but she’s definitely the reason your mom committed suicide!
Fabian faced a moral dilemma as he wanted to warn Hannah about them, but he didn’t want to ruin the innocence in her.
Unaware of his thoughts, Hannah felt angry and frustrated when she saw him sit there in silence.
Hmph! All you do is bully a weak little girl like me every day! Why don’t you go bully someone else instead? You meanie! I know he has his reasons for asking those questions, and he probably means well, but… The way he does things just pisses me off so much!
“I see… Don’t mind me, I was just asking.” In the end, Fabian decided not to tell her about it so he could maintain that innocence of hers that he really treasured.
What a weirdo… Hannah thought to herself as she said, “No problem, just ask all you like!”
She gave in not because she wanted to please Fabian, but because she was afraid of angering him.
Fabian found her response amusing. Who would’ve thought that the headstrong and fearless Hannah would say something like this? Guess I should be a little more aggressive with her to remind her who’s boss!
“So, what do you plan on doing about your mom’s death?” he asked in a gentler tone.
