Chapter 355
“But you’re not just a fool, you’re cruel, too. You betrayed Hannah, and now you’re betraying Sandra. If you couldn’t commit, you should have just divorced Hannah and married Sandra. Wouldn’t that have been better p>
Quennel stood up, walked over, and patted him on the shoulder. “But you’ve made such a mess of things. If you really go through with taking back all those gifts, it won’t just be your reputation on the line, Lionel. You’ll bring shame upon the entire Rosenberg family p>
With that, Quennel walked out, instructing a servant at the door, “Don’t bother preparing dinner for him tonight. He won’t be staying p>
Lionel stood frozen in place, fuming with anger and humiliation, yet unable to say a word.
What he didn’t realize was that while he had only verbally threatened to take the items back and had given Sandra time, Hannah had already sent people directly to the Woods family home to collect everything.
Mr. and Mrs. Woods were stunned when a group of tall, intimidating men, all over six feet, showed up at their door.
“What do you think you’re doing! I… I’m warning you, this is a society of laws! Trespassing is a crime, and you’ll be arrested! Get out of here right now, and I’ll pretend this never happened p>
Mr. David Woods yelled at them, his voice trembling.
But his shouting had no effect whatsoever.
“What are you yelling about? We’re here on orders to collect the items belonging
to your daughter. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll hand them over
yourselves. Otherwise, we’re coming in to get them p>
The man in the lead shouted back even louder, his voice booming.
His roar made Mr. David Woods’ heart tremble, and his legs felt so weak he nearly collapsed.
“Why should you take my daughter’s things? Call the police! Call the police p>
When Mrs. Edith Woods threatened to call the police, the man simply shrugged, “You know who gave your daughter those things,” he explained patiently. “And those things don’t him. Now the other
just belong t
party involved wants them back. If
you don’t hand them over, she’s
going to file a lawsuit p>
“When this whole thing blows up, it’s your daughter who will be humiliated. She knew he was a married man, yet she shamelessly
kept coaxing him into her
gifts. And then she had the nerve to demand fifty million p>
As Mr. and Mrs. Woods listened, they slowly began to understand what was happening, though they knew nothing about the fifty million.
“Have you made up your minds?” the man barked when he saw them hesitating. He waved his hand, signaling his men to move in.
“Alright, boys, go inside. Empty out that woman’s room. We’ll sort through it later. If anything wasn’t from him, we’ll return it p>
The commotion at the door was so loud that neighbors started coming out to see what was going on.
Some, who loved a good spectacle, sidled up and asked with false
concern, “Mrs. Woods, what’s all this about? Weren’t all of Sandra’s jewels gifts from Mr. Rosenberg,
“Don’t tell me Mr. Rosenberg is taking them back now? That can’t be right! He’s
Mr. Rosenberg! Why would he take back a gift he’d already given p>
“Oh my, could it be that Sandra took gifts from that man she was supposed to marry? And now that she’s not marrying him, he wants them back p>
“A young lady shouldn’t be so quick to accept things from men, even if her family is going bankrupt p>
