Chapter 72 Hannah Probed Vi About the West District Incident


    Chapter 72 Hannah Probed Vi About the West District Incident


    Hannah was very clever. After receiving her sister''s message, she immediately went to find Vi.


    In Vi''s room, she chatted for a while before asking, "By the way, Vi, do you know about what


    happened to your sister in the West District before?"


    Vi''s expression subtly changed, and she looked at her suspiciously. "What have you heard?"


    "Oh, nothing much. I just heard from my sister that your sister seemed to be afraid of going to the


    West District."


    Vi popped a strawberry into her mouth, squinting at Hannah due to its sourness.


    "Why? Are you interested in this matter? How would it help you?"


    Hannah smiled begrudgingly, "Well, I haven''t taken down Mr. Riley yet, so I thought I could make


    good use of this matter."


    "You have no idea how envious I got during myst visit to Valentino. Your brother-inw bought all


    the handbags in the store and gave them to your sister."


    "The entire store?" Vi eximed while she was sitting up straight.


    "Yes!" Hannah said sarcastically, "If this situation persists, your sister will be even more


    arrogant and step all over you!"


    "No way!" Vi mmed the table, "I''ll tell you everything! You go and tell my brother-inw!"


    After pausing for a moment, Vi narrowed her eyes and spoke mysteriously.


    "I''m not entirely sure about the details. This matter was handled by Leon back then. He was


    unwilling to disclose the specifics."


    "But from what I heard from my mom, that student seemed to have tried to assault my sister, her


    clothes were ripped off..."


    Vi added some embellishments to the story.


    In fact, she had no idea whether Adeline''s clothes were ripped off by that student.


    But based on her family''s reaction at the time, it was likely to be something serious.


    Hannah covered her mouth in shock. "Oh my! They say Mr. Riley is very sensitive about this kind of


    thing."


    Vi pondered for a moment and nodded emphatically, "Yes, Jacob has mentioned that Mr. Riley is


    particrly sensitive about others touching his stuff. He won''t let anyone touch his things, let alone


    a person!"


    Hannah slowly curved her lips into a smile, "Alright. I''ll go find Zac and inquire about Mr. Riley''s


    whereabouts. Vi, you just have to wait for my good news."


    Zac was a small-time thug whom Hannah had befriended at the nightclub.


    Whenever she needed to find out about Curtis''s whereabouts, she relied on him.


    Vi smiled triumphantly.


    "Adeline, let''s see how you dare to be arrogant in front of me in the future!"


    "I don''t believe that your life can be happier than mine with the kind of fate you have!"


    On the other side, Adeline was restless all day long.


    After returning to the apartment and exining her business trip to Curtis, she locked herself in her


    room.


    Adeline was hiding something, and Curtis was feeling upset too.


    The entire atmosphere at home became tense and oppressive.


    The next day, Curtis personally apanied Adeline to the train bound for the West District.


    Before entering the station, Curtis tightly held Adeline''s hand. He looked determined and said,


    "Adeline, let me say it again. I am your husband, and I can protect you. Whatever happens, you can


    tell me. You can always trust me."

    Curtis''s voice was warm like a mountain breeze, always giving people a sense of stability.


    Adeline felt warmth. She managed to smile faintly and nodded, "Okay."


    Curtis watched as Adeline entered the station and then nced at Steffen, asking, "Have you


    arranged for someone to protect Mrs. Riley?"


    "Yes, I arranged for Sara to apany Mrs. Riley on her business trip. Sara is a woman, so it''s


    more convenient for her to stay with Mrs. Riley."


    Curtis nodded, but he felt a slight unease in his heart.


    Steffen urged him to leave the train station, saying as they walked, "Mr. Riley, at ten in the morning,


    you have a meeting to discuss the project in the North Mountain area..."


    "Cancel it."


    Steffen was confused.


    "Get the tickets for the next train. We''ll apany Mrs. Riley on her business trip."


    Steffen was in shock.


    "Also, have someone bring my clothes for the trip, and while at it, bring General along too!"


    Steffen seemed clueless.


    "What are you waiting for?" Curtis''s grip tightened and his heart felt somewhat uneasy.


    Two hourster, Curtis and Steffen boarded the train to the West District.


    Not long after, Victoria''s nephew, Alexander, and Hannah also set off for the West District.
