Chapter 422

Seeing her son still hesitating, Mary slammed her hand on the table in frustration.

“At this point, what is there to hesitate about? Dragging your feet and refusing to sign is pointless p>

Furious and embarrassed, Mary glared at the impassive Lionel and continued to lash out. “I’ve made myself perfectly clear. If you still don’t get it, go ask Hannah yourself. Ask her if she still loves you. Why are you lying to yourself? After everything you’ve done, no one in their right mind would forgive you p>

But even as she spoke so harshly, Lionel acted as if he hadn’t heard a word, remaining silent.

“I’m talking to you, are you deaf? Do you have any idea what the consequences of your actions are? Are you trying to drag the entire family down with you? Snap out of it p>

Looking at Lionel’s cruel, fragile state, she felt a growing sense of regret. She should have stopped him the moment she found out he was cheating.

Back then, she never imagined things would turn out like this.

If only she had known what a lunatic Hannah was, she would have stopped Lionel no matter what he said or did.

But it was too late for regrets. What was done, was done.

“Mom, if you hadn’t been so bored and insisted on finding Hannah, if you hadn’t bribed that person from the Temple family, none of this would have happened p>

Lionel, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

But his words were enough to infuriate anyone.

“How dare you say that to me? Are you even human? Why do you think I went to Hannah? It was all for your if you had been less trouble, would have needed to do something like that Besides, I didn’t bribe Cherry. She came to me on her own p>

Lionel instantly picked up on two key pieces of information.

“Mom, you didn’t do it for me. You did it for yourself, for your own pride. When I was doing all that, you were the one encouraging me behind the scenes You’ve always regretted that I married Hannah instead of

Sandra p>

“You only ever wanted Sandra as your daughter-in-law. Every time she said she was coming to visit, you were happier than anyone. It was your attitude that made me who I am today p>

Mary couldn’t refute this, so she just gritted her teeth and refused to admit it.

“And if you’re claiming Cherry came to you, then why don’t you just go to

the Temple family and confront them face to face? If you have proof, take it directly to Hannah Maybe she’d even redirect her angecaway from you for being upfront about it p>

After saying his piece, Lionel stood up to leave.

He felt there was nothing more to say to his mother. Continuing the conversation would just be repeating the same arguments, which was pointless and would only deepen the resentment between them.

Just as Mary was about to speak, she saw Lionel get up and leave without a second thought. Her heart sank.

Does he really expect me to go to Hannah?

If she went again, who knew what that damn brat would say next!

She already despised Hannah, and that was before all this.

Meanwhile, a firestorm was brewing online.
