The Unshackled Queen: Never Say Never

“What a surprise to see you here, Miss Moore.

”

Suppressing a yawn, Hannah retorted, “It’s no surprise.

This is my home.

You must’ve known that already, didn’t you?”

Flustered, Eliana was cut off by an infuriated Leah.

“Your home? What do you actually own? Everything you have is because of Declan.

How dare you claim this house?”

Stung by Leah’s unmasked scorn, Hannah felt an emotional chill.

While it was true that Declan had promised her the house, the paperwork hadn’t been finalized.

What really annoyed her was Declan’s absolute disregard for her, allowing people to confront her as if she had no stake in the home.

As if she were some mistress, and Eliana the legitimate wife, all under the endorsement of their parents.

Although she had come to terms with Declan’s indifference, she had expected some semblance of respect, especially given their four-year history and his status as a successful entrepreneur.

Instead, she felt demeaned and mistreated.

“What a disgrace! Her being here must have tainted the air.

I can hardly bear it!” Sadie sneered, gripping Eliana’s arm while sizing Hannah up.

“You’ll need to clean the place later, Eliana.

We don’t need her bad luck.

”

Patting Sadie’s hand, Eliana smiled softly, “Don’t worry.

You’re always looking out for me.

”

Turning her attention to Hannah, Eliana said in a slightly apologetic tone, “Miss Moore, if you’re struggling to find a place to stay, perhaps I can reserve a hotel room for you? In the meantime, you can look for a permanent residence.

My parents have already set their hearts on this house.

”

For a moment, Hannah remained silent, studying the faces before her while nursing a throbbing headache.

“Didn’t Declan mention he gave me this house?”

“Don’t be absurd! Do you really expect us to believe that Declan would gift a house to someone like you?” Both Sadie and Leah interrupted Hannah, incredulous at the thought that Declan could be so kind toward her.

“You were there when your brother gave me the sports car, right? You even picked a fight with me over it.

So why wouldn’t he give me this house?” Hannah remarked, her tone nonchalant.

Leah’s eyes darted to Sadie, her skepticism palpable.

“Is she being honest?”

“That’s different!” Sadie’s voice rose, her eyes locked onto Hannah.

“A sports car is one thing, but a lakefront villa in a prime location worth at least ten million? You’re clearly not the sort who deserves to be here.

”

Upon hearing this, even Layla, Eliana’s mother, couldn’t suppress a derisive snort.

“To see such a materialistic woman is truly enlightening.

The lengths she’ll go to have no bounds.

She really has no self-respect.
