Daniela chimed in again, "You got that right, I've got plenty of ways to mess with you, no need to get all worked up about the dough. Go on with your shooting, and make it good. I'll use the cash this drama makes to deck out a new pad for me and Steven."
Hannah was left speechless. Daniela's words had struck a nerve, but she tried her best to keep her smile intact.
Mid-sentence, Daniela sidled up to Hannah, whispering into her ear, "Steven told me you're a real pistol in the sack. Still young, need me to hook you up with a loaded guy?"
Hannah knew Daniela was just poking the bear, but she couldn't keep her cool. She shoved Daniela away with all her might. Daniela lost her balance, tumbling into a man who was walking towards them, "Oh! Steven, when did you get here?"
"If I hadn't shown up, you'd have taken a spill." Steven said.
Hearing that all-too-familiar voice, Hannah stiffened but didn't turn around. She didn't want to see him. Seeing him would only rub salt into her wounds.
Behind her, Daniela's voice rang out again, "I really have no clue what I did to tick off Ms. Dixon, why would she push me?"
Hannah despised these phony women! If she had got the nerve to start trouble, then should have the guts to own up to it.
Hannah abruptly turned around, catching sight of Daniela snuggling up to Steven, a sight that was hard on the eyes. Hannah felt a sting in her eyes.
Steven, with Daniela in his arms, looked indifferently at Hannah, "Why did you push her?"
