Why the Crocodile Tears (by Flower Sock) novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138

But Hannah didn’t even spare Natalle a glance. Quick on her feet, he caught Anathea before she could fall. Iter voler was full of concern as she asked, “Thea, are you okay?”

Anathea weakly nodded. As soon as she saw Hannah, her eyes, already red, became clouded with unshed tears. She parted her dry lips. “Let’s go…”

“Alright, let’s get you out of here.” Hannali gently supported her slender arm.

“Wait!” Natalie snapped. “You think you can just walk away after crashing into us like that?”

Natalie was determined to make Anathea’s life miserable, and she wasn’t about to let her friend off the hook either.

But she was in for a surprise.

“Oh?” Hannah paused. When her eyes flicked over to Natalie, she smirked. “I’d like to see how you plan to stop me.” She cracked her knuckles, the sound echoing in the tense silence.

Before she became an actress, she’d trained in boxing and even earned a silver medal. One swift kick would be more than enough to deal with a fake, high–maintenance woman like Natalie

Natalie was startled by her fierce look and quickly turned to Gregory for help. “Greg, this woman is going too far…”

Gregory remained stone–faced. He didn’t even make a move to help Eleanor.

“If you keep talking, I’ll show you what ‘too far‘ really looks like!” Hannah growled. Standing at five feet and seven inches in heels, Hannah looked like she was six feet tall.

‘Her imposing presence and commanding voice made Natalie freeze immediately. She didn’t dare speak. She feared that Hannah

might actually flip both her and her wheelchair at any moment.

Noticing Natalie’s sudden silence, Hannah let out a scoff and helped Anathea away.

As they passed Gregory, Hannah shot him a venomous glare. In a low voice, she muttered,

“Scumbag, you don’t deserve Thea. You and that bitch can stay locked up together. Don’t come out and spread your poison on the world.”

Gregory frowned at those words. His gaze flicked toward Anathea, who could barely stand even with Hannah’s support. A flash of darkness flickered in his eyes.

Even after they disappeared around the corner, his eyes remained fixed in that direction.

“Greg…” Natalie called out carefully.

He ignored her.

Only when Eleanor called out to him did he withdraw his gaze and ask her, “Are you okay?”

It sounded like concern, but there was little warmth in his tone.

Eleanor’s expression soured as she shot Gregory a displeased look. Just as she was about to speak her mind, Gregory called sharply, “Martin!”

From the corner, Martin immediately appeared. He replied respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Sinclair?”

“Take my mother home,” Gregory ordered coldly.

“I’m not going anywhere! I-

Eleanor had just started to refuse when Gregory cut her off, saying, “You will go, Mom.”

His tone was distant and cold, like each word was laced with frost

Eleanor was stunned for a moment. When she met his fey gaze, she frowned but said nothing further. With an irritated horn, she turned and left unwillingly.
