Chapter 276 Shooting Herself in the Foot
Hannah sneered, “If a beggar is given money, the beggar would smile at the generous person and
speak a few words of good wishes. However, there are some people who even don’t show the most
basic respect for others, and they bite whoever they catch.”
“Hannah, I’ll beat you to death! You disobedient girl. I’ll beat you to death now…” As Lorie spoke, she
came forward and tried to hit Hannah.
Hannah took a few steps back.
Right at this moment, the security guards stopped Lorie. Of course, they didn’t do anything to
her. They just stopped her from getting close to Hannah.
Miguel instinctively stood beside his daughter to protect her.
He really grew more and more disappointed by what his mother did.
Hannah just watched Lorie freak out and recalled what had happened in the past.
When she was a small kid, she would go back to the Cooper Residence with her parents.
When her grandfather was still alive, everything was fine. However, because all of his inheritance went
to her family, Lorie took it out on her in all sorts of ways. No matter what she did, she would be scolded
by Lorie.
Lorie would even pinch her when no one was around. Sometimes when she went home from the
Cooper Residence, she had been pinched black and blue.
She was small and timid at that time, so she didn’t dare to tell others. But it cast a lot of shadows on
her childhood.
If she hadn’t been reborn and been able to see through everything, she would have still been living in
the shadow of Lorie, being always timid, not confident, and afraid of expressing herself.
“Let go of my grandma!” Wayne probably couldn’t stand it anymore.
He stepped forward and kicked one of the security guards in the stomach.
The security guard didn’t notice and fell to the ground.
Wayne did not think it was wrong of him to hit the security guard at all. He shouted loudly, “If you dare
to touch my grandma, I’ll beat you all to death!”
The security guards did not get physical at all. They were just using their bodies to block Lorie.
“Wayne, beat Hannah to death, the son of a bitch!” Lorie commanded.
Wayne angrily tried to rush over to hit Hannah.
The security guards naturally wouldn’t let him do that. But they did not dare to attack Wayne. As a
result, each of the security guards received a few kicks from Wayne. At that moment, Miguel really got
angry.
Chapter 276 Shooting Herself in the Foot
The moment Wayne was about to get close to them, Miguel clenched his fists tightly. Hannah grabbed
her father’s hand at once and said coldly, “I’ve called the police.” Wayne was immediately stunned.
Hannah lifted her phone. It could be seen on the screen that the call had been put through. Hannah
said slowly, “We’re in the president’s office of Cooper Group, and we’re under an attack. Please send
someone over to protect us.”
“Hannah, are you crazy?!” Hearing what Hannah said, Wayne almost jumped up.
Hannah sneered, “If you punch me, you’ll have to go to jail to accompany your father!” Wayne clenched
his fists tightly, his hands shaking. But he dared not to try to hit Hannah anymore. It was because he
had known that Hannah was no longer a pushover.
She was a totally different person now, no longer the girl who he could abuse as he liked. “I’ll give you
two minutes to leave here with your grandmother and your mother. If you don’t, I’ll sue your
grandmother and your mother for breaking into the company without permission and seriously affecting
the normal operation of the company. I’ll do what I say!” Hannah did not speak in a loud voice, but her
dignity made other people revere at the moment.
It sent Wayne a chill down his spine at that moment.
“Two minutes. The countdown has begun!” Hannah did not give them the chance to argue with her,
looked at her phone, and said coldly.
Wayne gritted his teeth. He turned to look at Lorie as if he was asking her what to do now. Seeing that
Hannah was very determined, Lorie knew that she would definitely not be able to get any money or
benefits today. Though she was unwilling to give up, she was scared by Hannah. She said, “Hannah,
how dare you treat me like this today! I’ll absolutely make you pay for it. Just you wait!”
After saying those threatening words, she left with Esther and Wayne.
After they left, the company finally restored peace. Hannah made some security guards responsible for
sending the security guards who had been kicked by Wayne to the hospital. Besides, she compensated
those security guards for their injuries.
After handling these matters, Hannah looked at her father.
Apparently, her father was still a little upset.
He was sitting in his luxurious chair and seemingly couldn’t figure out why his mother would
do this to him!
Hannah sat opposite him and comforted him, “Dad, it’s not your fault. You don’t have to blame yourself
for the mistakes of others. It’s not worthwhile.” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
“I just don’t understand. We’re all her sons. Why has she always been so partial towards your uncle?”
“Grandma and grandpa have always been on the outs. Grandpa liked you, so grandma
deliberately treats you badly. Besides, grandpa left all his property to you. It’s totally unacceptable for
grandma. But it’s not our fault. Grandpa gave all his property to you because he knew that neither
uncle nor grandma has the ability to manage the Cooper Group well. Apparently, Grandpa had made
the right choice. If he had given the property to uncle or had distributed it evenly, the Cooper Group
would have gone bankrupt a long time ago!”
“Hannah, you’re really a good girl.” A hint of gratified smile appeared on Miguel’s face.
Obviously, he was convinced by Hannah.
“Dad, do you understand it now?” Hannah asked seriously.
“Yes, I’ve understood it.” Miguel took a deep breath, “I want you to deal with your grandmother for me
in the future.”
“I’ll take care of everything.” Hannah agreed without hesitation.
“Thank you. You can go to work now.” Miguel said.
“Fine.”
Hannah rose to her feet and walked to the door.
When she opened the door, her father’s secretary suddenly appeared at the door, and obviously had
something to report.
“What’s wrong?” Miguel looked serious.
He obviously treated Hannah and others in completely different manners.
He was an extremely loving dad for Hannah.
But he had a grave and dignified bearing when he was in front of other people.
“Mr Cooper, a lot of reporters have been gathered by your mom at the entrance of our
company. The entrance to our company has now been completely jammed.” The secretary reported in
a hurry.
Miguel, who had relaxed a bit before, had a ghastly pale face now.
Hannah turned to face Miguel and asked, “Dad, you just said you’ll leave it to me. Does that
still count?”
Miguel was stunned.
Then, he answered, “Yeah.”
‘Then I’ll handle this.” Hannah spoke firmly.
Miguel nodded heavily.
So many years had passed.
He had indeed run out of patience.
Chapter 276 Shooting Herself in the Foot
Hannah returned to her office.
She went straight to the floor-to-ceiling window and saw that Lorie was being surrounded by a lot of
reporters at the entrance of the Cooper Group.
She could know, without the need to think, what Lorie was complaining about to the
reporters. Also, she could know, without thinking, how despicable and mean they were in Lorie’s
mouth.
“Ms Hannah.” Rose walked up to her.
Hannah asked, “Is the recording ready?”
“Yes, it’s ready.” Rose answered hurriedly.
“Send it to the news agency, and ask them to upload the video to the internet immediately.” Hannah
ordered.
“Yes.” Rose nodded, and then left.
Hannah smiled coldly.
Just now, she asked Rose to record everything Lorie did in her father’s office. She had anticipated that
Lorie would do this. She would let Lorie shoot herself in the foot!
