Chapter 8
Glowering at Sadie, he snapped, “If you can’t behave yourself, maybe you should go back to school and learn some decency instead of wasting your days with these misfits.
”
Taken aback, Sadie looked near tears.
Eliana reached over and tenderly grasped Declan’s hand.
As he turned toward her, she softly murmured, “Sadie’s just a girl, don’t be so harsh.
”

”
Declan’s expression turned even darker.
“She made her own choices, and they led her down this path.

Carlos clenched his jaw, retorting, “You know who I am? My brother runs the Black Group.
One word from me and you’ll vanish from Valmere, mark my words!”
Ignoring him, Hannah rummaged through her Hermes Birkin bag in silence.
For a moment, she said nothing, leading Carlos to believe his social standing had unnerved her.
His arrogance swelled.
“We’re not done here.
A scar like this could make you reduced to poverty and ruin.
I’ll get a medical checkup, you know.
My uncle has contacts with the police.
