Chapter 885
Hana had never pegged Brittany to be so petty.
With a frown, Brittany said, “Ms. Hana, I think there’s been á misunderstanding. This has nothing to do with me.”
She wasn’t so idle as to go out of her way to pick on Hana.
But Hana, convinced Brittany was lying, retorted, “Ms. Dustin, you and Mr. Salter aren’t remarried yet, so I still have a shot at competing for him. Why the rush to wipe me out? Are you afraid I’ll overtake you, or are you just insecure?”
Hana lifted her chin defiantly. “I heard you had a miscarriage. You should really take care

But Hana, blinded by her anger, disregarded any sense of tact. “How does someone just miscarry out of the blue, unless maybe too much fun overseas led to a nasty case of recurrent miscarriages?”
No sooner had the words left her mouth than Brittany’s hand struck Hana’s face, her expression turning icy. “Hana, watch your words!”

“Brittany, how dare you slap me! It’s your own fault for not being able to keep the baby, and now you won’t let me speak? Everyone knows you and William have been an item for

Hana’s face turned red. “I wasn’t trying to break them up…”
“Then what?” the director squinted. “The whole world knows Mr. Salter is engaged. Do you really think you can worm your way into that family?”
The director looked at Hana with disdain. Did she watch too many romcoms? Did she really believe in some fairy-tale romance?
Biting her lip, Hana asked, “Did Brittany complain about me?”
The director chuckled, “Don’t always assume Ms. Dustin is the one out to get you.”
“Then who was it?”
The director obviously wouldn’t reveal it was Wesley who had approached her privately.
