Heaven or Hell: Loving My Twisted Billionaire

Chapter 117

Hannah’s POV

The sound of glass shattering seemed to echo in the small break room as I pulled away from Jason. Water splashed across the floor, creating a dark patch on the hem of my skirt. I stepped back, creating distance between us.

Let me help you with that, Jason said, reaching for a paper towel. His eyes lingered on my legs as he moved closer. “That water might stain if we don’t dry it quickly.”

I stiffened, recognizing the predatory gleam in his eyes. “No need,” I said coldly. “Please show some self-respect.

His smile faltered, but he recovered quickly. “I was just trying to help, Ms. Lancaster. You seem to misunderstand my intentions.”

I met his gaze with an icy stare, saying nothing. The silence stretched between us, awkward and tense. I’d dealt with enough men like Jason to know what came next-the fake apology, the suggestion that I had somehow misinterpreted his ‘innocent gesture.

Before he could speak again, I heard voices approaching from the hallway.

“Sterling Entertainment is committed to authentic storytelling, Mr. Sterling.” A woman’s voice, smooth and practiced. “I’m Alicia White, the female lead for The Girls. It’s an honor to meet you.”

My heart rate accelerated. Finn was coming. I heard the distinctive sound of his footsteps against the floor, growing closer

with each second. The rhythmic sound reminded me of a countdown.

Jason’s expression changed, eyes darting to the door. Suddenly, he lunged toward me, arms outstretched.

“Lancaster, please don’t pull me like that!” he shouted, voice unnaturally loud. “We barely know each other…

a dull thud.

The door flew open with enough force to make the hinges protest. Finn stood in the doorway, his posture rigid and face impassive, but I knew that look. It was the calm before a storm, the stillness of a predator before it strikes. The temperature in the room seemed to drop ten degrees.

Alicia appeared behind him, her expression morphing from professional charm to shocked confusion as she took in the

his carefully styled hair and dampening his expensive shirt.

‘Finn!” I moved to his side, gripping the sleeve of his tailored suit. “He tried to make a move on me. Can you please hav him replaced?”

Finn’s jaw tightened, a muscle jumping along his temple. “Did he touch you?” His voice was soft, dangerously soft.

“No, I dodged him,” I replied, relief evident in my tone. “But he tried.”

Jason scrambled to his feet, water dripping down his face. “That’s not what happened! She’s lying!” His voice rose an octave higher than normal. “She came onto me, said she was my biggest fan, wanted me to sign her chest. When I refused, she got aggressive.”

Finn’s expression didn’t change, but something shifted in his eyes. He turned to me. “Wait outside, Hannah.

“But

“Be a good girl and wait outside,” he repeated, his tone gentler but no less commanding. “If the noise bothers you, cover your ears.”

A chill ran down my spine. I knew that tone. I hesitated, then nodded, stepping into the hallway. Finn entered the break

room fully and closed the door with a decisive click.

Alicia smiled sympathetically at me. “I can’t believe Jason would do something like that. Thank goodness Mr. Sterling is

looking out for you.”

I kept my expression neutral. “If Finn had actually seen something happening, I wouldn’t be able to clear my name even if I jumped into the Hudson River.”

Alicia’s eyebrow arched slightly. “You know, everyone’s talking about what happened at the Hawkins birthday party. How Mr. Sterling nearly drowned someone in a fountain because of you.”

Before I could respond, a high pitched scream came from behind the closed door, cutting off abruptly. Then silence. I winced, avoiding Alicia’s wide eyed stare

A minute later, the dom opened. Finn stepped out, his expression placid. His knuckles were bloody, and small droplets of crimson speckled his eyebrow

he returned. “Jason must have been planted deliberately. Someone’s trying to drive a wedge between us.”

Finn dried his hands methodically on a pristine white towel. ‘Is there security footage in the break room?
