“I happen to indulge in watching certain police and criminal-themed television programs; that’s where I picked up a few things,” Hannah replied with a composed countenance, her response offered as though an absolute verity, betraying no hints of deceit.

Yet to Melina, Hannah’s words were far from convincing.

They seemed fraught with inconsistencies and loose ends.

“Miss Moore…”

Melina wished to delve deeper into her query but Grace, her face aglow with admiration, had already clung to Hannah’s arm, her eyes glistening with a deep reverence.

“Hannah, you are absolutely astounding! Not only are you an exceptional driver but you also confronted those individuals without a shred of fear, even employing your knowledge from television to contend with the adversaries!”

Hannah’s gentle touch graced Grace’s head, and she inquired, “Did fear overtake you just moments ago?”

With a playful glint in her eyes, Grace responded to Hannah, “Perhaps a tad but I held unwavering trust in you, dear Hannah, so my fear quickly dissipated.

Grace, turning her gaze towards Melina, extended comfort, saying, “It was, in part, my insistence on a leisurely stroll that caused you distress in the car.

I must shoulder some of the blame, too.

”

Softly, Melina spoke to Grace.

“No burden of blame should you bear.

It was an unfortunate accident; let your worries fade.

”

Grace redirected her gaze to Hannah, her eyes glistening.

“Hannah, you don’t hold me at fault, do you?”

A reassuring smile adorned Hannah’s face as she _ responded, “Absolutely not, my dear.

It’s possible our conspicuous presence today drew undue attention.

Place no blame upon yourself.

”

Melina furrowed her brow subtly, pondering the meaning behind Hannah’s words.

Hannah’s implication weighed heavily on her mind.

It had been her insistence on accompanying them with bodyguards today.

Was Hannah subtly reprimanding her?

“I too share the blame,” Melina confessed, her gaze falling to her knees.

“I aimed to protect Grace but clumsily miscalculated.

I’m truly sorry, Miss Moore.

”

Hannah replied lightly, “It’s okay.

None among us foresaw today’s unfortunate turn of events.

”

“Indeed,” Grace chimed in, nodding sweetly.

“Hannah speaks the truth; it was a mere accident.

Let us leave it in the past and refrain from revisiting it.
