Chapter 1892
“Boss.
”
Seeing that Hannah was unharmed, Dotson glanced at the half—conscious woman on the floor and asked, “Who is she?”
“She’s the one who set the fire tonight,” Hannah replied, her voice steady.
“Did the hospital call the police?”
“Yes.
Franco is safe, and the hospital has called the authorities.
The firefighters and police should be here any minute.
”
Dotson looked back at the battered woman on the floor.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
“What should we do with her?”
“Have the bodyguards keep a close watch on her.
Don’t let her escape.
If she gets away, someone might try to cover for her.
”
“Understood, Boss.
I’ll handle it.
”
As Dotson took charge, Hannah glanced at the billowing smoke still pouring from the upper floors.
She pursed her Lips and sighed, hoping the fire wouldn’t spread too quickly.

Although she had dodged the worst of it, Hannah’s throat still burned from the smoke.
The fire raged on, and all she could do was wait for the fire trucks to arrive.
“Miss Moore! Miss Moore!”
The sudden call pulled Hannah from her thoughts.
She turned towards the voice, confused.
Yosef appeared, looking more disheveled than she had ever seen him.
Relief washed over his face when he saw her.
“I’m glad you’re okay.
Mr.
Mitchell knows about the fire and is on his way.
I live nearby, so he asked me to check on things.
I’m relieved to see you’re safe.
That’s great.
”
Hannah patted Yosef’s shoulder reassuringly.
“Don’t worry.
Franco is fine too.
Tell Bryson to be careful on his way here.
”
“Got it! I’ll call him right now.
”
The chaotic night slowly gave way to dawn, and as exhaustion finally overtook her, Hannah dozed off while keeping vigil at Franco’s bedside.
When she awoke, Bryson was already sitting by Franco’s bedside.
“When did you get here? Why didn’t you wake me up?” she asked, rubbing her eyes.
Upon noticing Hannah awake, Bryson moved from the bed to sit next to her.
“I’m worried you haven’t rested enough.
”
Hannah’s lips twitched into a smile as she responded, “I slept well enough.
Thankfully, nothing happened last night.
”
Her voice was hoarse.
With a concerned frown, Bryson suggested, “You should have the doctor check you out.
”
“No need.
”
Hannah coughed and reassured him, “I just inhaled some smoke.
I’ll be fine in a couple of days.
”
Then, curious about the previous evening’s events, she asked, “What happened last night after the police and firefighters arrived?”
“Luckily, it was caught early.
Only the floor where it occurred had an issue with the fire escape, and no one was injured.
