Chapter 529

Hannah didn’t say a word. Instead, it was Samuel who burst out laughing.

“Lionel, oh Lionel. When you said that, did your heart not skip a beat? You really have no shame at all, do you? How dare you say something like that p>

Even Sandra, standing nearby, thought Lionel was a fool for saying that.

Hannah put down her cup but remained silent, pulling out her phone and starting a game.

Lionel had thought she was about to speak and had opened his mouth in anticipation, but seeing her actions, he had no choice but to close it again.

Samuel, however, wasn’t finished. “You talk about your years of history with Hannah, and you’re upset she doesn’t believe you. But let me ask you, have you ever believed Hannah p>

“If things hadn’t gotten to this point, I doubt you would believe her even now. In the three years you were married, did you ever believe her even once p>

“I think if you had trusted Hannah just one time, she might be willing to trust you now. You never believed her, yet you demand she believe you. You’ve really got some nerve p>

Lionel was stunned into silence by his words.

He was right. In their three years of marriage, he had never once believed Hannah. Every time she had tried to explain herself, he had dismissed her, convinced she was lying to him.

Throughout all this, Sandra remained completely silent.

Even as Lionel tried to throw all the blame on her, she kept her mouth shut.

After all, the less she said now, the

safer she was. Besides, if these two whatever. she said, then they were truly a hopeless, foolish pair.

Elsewhere, a servant reported Lionel’s phone call to Quennel.

“I figured he’d bring up the security footage. But he probably didn’t expect me to have already deleted it. It’s something they would think of So of course I would think of it too. Why would I ever keep evidence that could be used against me?

Quennel’s only regret was that he couldn’t be at the Temple estate to witness the drama unfold.

But just imagining it was thrilling enough. He should have planted a bug on Sandra. That way, he could have listened in on the interesting conversation.

“Young Master, should I call him back now and tell him the cameras were broken and under repair p>

Quennel nodded.

discovered, it would arouse suspicion. So, he had to let it go.

Lionel was still trying to persuade Hannah to believe him when his phone rang.

He snatched it up and answered excitedly.

“What? You’re saying the security system was down? How is that possible p>
