Grant's father ran a real estate company in Jork and had connections with Maison. He mentioned his father, hoping Maison would release them.

"Who do you think your father is?" Maison sneered. "He just runs a real estate company worth hundreds of millions. Do you think he's worth mentioning to me? I work for Miss Sanderson. Your father is nothing to me." Flicking his cigarette away, Maison added, "I've shown you enough respect. If I weren't being respectful, you'd be lying on the floor now."

Everyone believed that Grant's powerful father wouldn't let anyone harm Trevor. Evie's gaze was so cold it frightened her secretary. Turning to her secretary, Evie ordered, "Go and deal with it."

"Yes, Ma'am," the secretary replied.

Trevor felt relieved after messaging Evie. With a comforting smile, he walked over to Bessie and reassured her, "Everything will be okay."

Bessie smiled back. "I know. Well, don't stand there. Stay behind me." As the team coach, she felt responsible for protecting her students in difficult situations.
