Her Seven Little Bodyguards novel Chapter 356

Chapter 360

"Okay." Hanson held her hand and squeezed it tightly.

As they watched the two grownups leave, the four children were determined to find out what truly happened and teach that terrible Melanie a lesson.

Vania and Hanson arrived at the location that Dylan had sent to Vania.

Once she saw that it was a bustling restaurant, she said to Hanson, "Wait for me in the car. I'll go in alone."

There were a lot of people moving in and out of the restaurant. Since Dylan had chosen such a public location, she did not feel too worried.

After all, it was broad daylight and there was a huge crowd of patrons around them in the restaurant. Dylan would not be able to do anything to her.

However, Hanson was not as convinced. "No, I won't let you go in alone. It's far too risky."

There was no way of telling what might happen, and he was already miffed about Vania meeting Dylan in the first place.

No matter what, he was still Hanson's rival in love, even if he had no hope of ever getting back with Vania.

Vania considered it for a moment. She did not know what Dylan and Melanie were up to this time, so she said, "We still don't know what's truly going on and we can't just believe what Dylan says. Their goal is to get me out alone, so I need to go in and see what's happening. If I don't come back out in ten minutes, you can come in to check on me."

She wanted to use herself as bait and see if they would let their guards down.

However, Hanson shot that down at once. "There's no way I'm letting you go in alone, not even for a minute."

He would not allow Vania to leave his sight at this critical juncture.

"If Dylan was lying, then I'd be able to help you. If he was telling the truth, it means he made his mind up already so regardless of my presence, he'd still tell you everything," Hanson concluded.

Vania thought he had a point. "Okay, we'll go in together then."

In the restaurant.

Dylan had been sitting here ever since he and Melanie went their separate ways.

After giving it much thought, he finally gave Vania a call.

His fate and the fate of the entire Jones Enterprise rested on what he was about to do.

After ending the call earlier, he shifted in his seat restlessly as he anxiously waited for Vania to come.

It had been less than twenty minutes since the call, but he felt like he had been waiting for centuries.

Suddenly, he spotted Vania's silhouette coming up the staircase, and he immediately jumped to his feet. Before he could call out to her, however, he saw Hanson beside her.

"Hahaha…" Dylan laughed bitterly. Vania looked radiant now. She and Hanson made a perfect match.

"Vania, you're here. I've been waiting for so long," he said.

Then, he turned to look at Hanson. This time, he had suppressed all his emotions, and he greeted plainly, "We meet again, President Luke."

Before Vania could say anything, Hanson stated coolly, "I'll give you one minute to tell us everything."

"Alright."

One minute was not a lot of time, but it was enough for Dylan.

He had wanted to treat Vania to dinner one last time, but it seemed like he would not be getting the chance to now.

Dylan stared at Vania for a while before handing an audio recorder over. "Melanie's entire plan is in here. My only request is that you ask President Luke to stop coming after me and Jones Enterprise."

Hanson was right there beside her, but Dylan did not speak to him directly because there was a higher chance of success if Vania was the one who pleaded his case.
