Chapter 485
He never imagined his attempt to help Hannah would be so misunderstood. It seemed unlikely she would see him now.
After all, she’d had security throw him out. She must be furious.
The thought made his expression grim, and he was filled with regret.
He hadn’t thought things through. He had genuinely just wanted to help her.
Though he couldn’t wait there, he drove to another spot nearby to wait for her to leave work.
As dusk fell and stars began to pepper the sky, Lionel saw Hannah and Samuel leaving the office building. He quickly got out of his car and jogged over to them.
“Hannah, I need to talk to you p>
The moment Hannah saw Lionel approaching, she took two quick steps back, putting a clear distance between them.
“Mr. Rosenberg, please keep your distance. I’m afraid you might suddenly become violent. What you did in front of our company building today has already been posted online. If this continues, you are going to severely damage our company’s image p>
“That’s not what happened, let me explain. I just saw him bullying you and wanted to teach him a lesson for you p>
Hannah let out a short, humorless laugh at his words. She slowly raised her eyes, a mocking smile on her face.
“Mr. Rosenberg, you wanted to ‘help’ me? May I ask what our relationship is? We are in the process of getting a divorce, and yet you interfere, creating a massive headache for me and my company p>
“You have your phone, don’t you? Go online and see what people are saying about you. You’re not helping me, you’re hurting me. Don’t you get it? This was already over. Almost no one knew about it. But because
had to get involved, it’s now public knowledge. I honestly don’t know if you’re trying to help me or destroy me p>
With that, Hannah turned and walked away. Lionel pulled out his phone and saw what she meant.
The incident, which had been a minor internal company matter, kad exploded online because Lionel had inexplicably slapped a man in front of the building, and someone had filmed it.
People started asking why Lionel had hit him the trail of comments eventually led back to the original
story: Hannah had been the target of slanderous rumors, and Lionel had
A to teach the guy
stepped
lesson p>
This act only intensified the public’s dislike for him, with countless people urging him
to finalize the divorce with Hannah.
[He just slaps someone out of nowhere? I seriously think this man has violent tendencies p>
[I suspect it too. Maybe Hannah was abused by him p>
[The issue was already resolved, and he just had to go and assault the guy, getting himself hauled into the police station p>
[This guy is becoming more and more unhinged p>
[I have a theory: Sandra was actually his therapist, trying to manage his insanity. Now that she’s gone, Lionel’s true crazy is showing p>
Lionel’s face was dark as he closed the trending topic. He got back in his car and drove to his hotel, the weight of his mistake crashing down on him.
He would apologize to Hannah tomorrow and make her understand he hadn’t meant for any of this to happen.
