Bryan wondered why she cared and scoffed. He observed a hint of earnestness in her eyes as she spoke.“I know you might not want to accept it, but I want to use this as the beginning of a new friendship,” she stated, her voice laced with determination. Bryan's reaction was a sarcastic chuckle.“I said I was going to give you a chance to prove you are worthy of my trust. I never said we are friends. Don't force it; we'd rather take it a step at a time,” he advised, his tone firm. With that, he turned to walk away, leaving her to ponder his words.Hannah's voice was resolute as she spoke, hoping to convey her sincerity. "Trust me, I am not giving up. This should mark the beginning of our friendship," she uttered, her gaze holding a glimmer of hope. However, Bryan's reaction was not what she expected."Are you sure you didn't poison this? Or why are you trying to force it on me?" His words rang with suspicion, causing a sudden tension to fill the air. Hannah's heart fluttered with anxiet

Bryan stood at the bedside, a mix of concern and caution in his eyes as he gently assisted her onto the bed. As he turned to leave her room, a sudden wave of emotion halted his movements.

Lisa stood outside the door, her heart pounding in her chest, apprehension gnawing at her insides. With a sudden burst of courage, she swung the door open, the hinges creaking in protest. The room was dimly lit, casting a soft glow over the figures of Sam and Jessica, peacefully slumbering in their beds. Relief washed over her, mingled with a twist of embarrassment. How could she have let a mere threat from Bryan affect her so profoundly?As she stood in the doorway, the weight of her fear lifting, Lisa felt a surge of conflicting emotions. Anger at herself for being so easily manipulated, confusion at her own vulnerability, and a touch of shame for allowing Bryan's words to infiltrate her sense of security.

"Why don't we check the CCTV camera, we shouldn't argue about this?" he suggested. Jessica was taken aback by his audacity. How could he propose such a ludicrous idea when they were the ones responsible for the situation in the first place? It seemed nonsensical that he would propose investigating the CCTV system when it would only incriminate them further. His suggestion added a layer of tension to the already charged atmosphere, leaving Jessica wondering if he truly believed his own words or if he was simply trying to divert attention away from their misdeeds."I think that's a better Idea," Grandma Creston said, her voice filled with certainty. Lisa nodded in agreement, and the two women made their way to the CCTV room. Jessica couldn't shake the feeling of unease settling in her stomach. Was this Bryan's way of finally getting rid of her? She tried to catch Bryan's eye for reassurance, but he only smirked, sending a shiver down her spine. The tension in the room was palpable as th
