“Let go of me, Mr. Jackson! It's impossible for us to be together!”
Hannah tried to break free of his grip, but Xavier was simply too strong for her.

I wont...
Hannah cut him off angrily before he could finish, “This has nothing to do with Fabian! I told you that it's impossible between us! Now, let go of me!”
“But why? Give me a reason, and I'll give up on you if I find it acceptable!” Xavier snapped back at her.
“Because of... well...” Hannah stammered for
quite a while, but she was unable to give him an answer.
“Because she has me!” Fabian shouted angrily as he pushed the door open and stormed into Xavier's office.
“Fabian!”
Hannah felt an urge to throw herself at him when she saw him, but held herself back as she remembered she was no longer related to him.
Fabian simply shot Hannah a brief glance before shifting his gaze towards Xavier. “Oh, my... How bold of you! Is this how you have your interviews, Mr. Jackson?”
Realizing he had gotten too emotional and crossed the line, Xavier quickly let go of Hannah and apologized to her, “I'm sorry, Hannah... I lost control for a bit there...”
He then turned towards Fabian and sneered, “Heh... I believe how I have my interviews is none of your concern, Mr. Norton!”
