Chapter 323
She checked her surroundings and pulled off a smooth U-turn, revving the engine.
"What''s going on?" I asked, my suspicion tinged with curiosity.
"Zora''s stirring the pot!" Hannah said curtly.
"Oh?" I raised an eyebrow, "What''s she up to now?"
"The realtor called. Someone wants to view the house, but Zora''s causing a scene, iming it''s hers,
and she''s giving the realtor a hard time!" Hannah scoffed with disdain. "She''s just asking for trouble!"
"Let''s head back home!" I instructed Hannah with a dismissive wave, "If there''s a mess, we''ll clean it up
for good."
Hannah looked puzzled, ncing my way.
I spoke with calm authority, "Today, I''m ending this nuisance for good. She''s going to give up on that
thought, once and for all. Trust me!"
Hannah gave me a thumbs-up and floored the elerator.
Returning home, I didn''t expect to find Jan Dawson sprawled on the couch like a starfish, he looked
utterly disheveled.
He perked up at the sound of the door, and upon seeing me enter, he bolted upright. "You''re back
already? What time is it?"

I shot him a nce, "Didn''t you go to the office?"
Scrambling to his feet, he tried to look presentable. "I will, I will... Just wanted a quick nap!"
I stopped him sharply, my tone edged, "Might as well keep sleeping! It''s 11:45 AM, nearly lunch break.
Why bother going to the office now?"
He paused, confused, "Is it past 11 already?"
He hurried up the stairs after me, mumbling, "I don''t know what''s up today, I feel so tired, dizzy.
Couldn''t wake up, felt awful all over!"
"Then sleep. Get some proper rest," I said, though honestly.
But to Jan, my words carried an underlying message. He was quick to protest, "No need for sleep,
I’ve got loads to do!"
I suddenly stopped, and he, unprepared, bumped into me, nearly knocking me off bnce.
Stabilizing myself, I asked irritably, "Can''t you watch where you''re going?"
He shook his head,ing to his senses, and looked at me, "Babe, you alright?"
I frowned at him, "I’m fine. Since you''re here, get ready ande with me."
Jan, puzzled, asked, "Where to?"
"Just get ready. You''ll find out soon enough," I said, heading back to my room to gather the things I
needed into my bag.
Turning back, I found Jan still standing there, looking utterly befuddled.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up, we''re on a clock!" I said and walked out, "Ten minutes, I''ll wait for
you downstairs!"
Seeing my determined exit, he finally nodded and went to the bathroom.
As I got into the car, Hannah was ready to start it, but I stopped her, "Wait, Jan ising with us."
"He''s... still at home?" Hannah was surprised.
Hannah nced towards the house, muttering with schadenfreude, "He’s finally tasting his own
medicine, huh?"
"Roger that!"
Soon enough, Jan emerged, looking neat and more alert after his shower, though he still yawned
continuously.
"Let''s go then!" I said, and we set off with Hannah driving. Content of Draм??ovels
Jan''s car followed closely behind.
I addressed him with a cold tone, "Let''s go."
The three of us went up together, and as soon as the elevator doors opened, Zora''s shrill voice could
be heard...
Stepping out, we were met with a scene that was shockingly intense.
