Chapter 550
When Hannah finished speaking, Lionel instinctively shut his mouth, his expression turning grave.
He took a few deep breaths, opened his mouth as if to speak, then clamped it shut again, remaining silent.
Suddenly, it wasn’t just their table that fell quiet; the surrounding, previously noisy tables also hushed.
People were holding up their phones, snapping photos and recording videos.
Hannah didn’t try to stop them, simply letting them continue filming.
After all, she knew perfectly well that Lionel had no so-called evidence. He was just trying to bluff her.
Since he was bold enough to try, she was happy to let him trend online again.
After nearly a minute of silence, Hannah spoke again.
“Cat got your tongue? You said you had evidence. Why don’t you show it to us now? Don’t tell me you were lying and you have nothing at all p>
Seeing Lionel’s stony silence, Sandra sighed inwardly.
It was just as she’d suspected. The man had no evidence; he was just a liar.
He had lied to Hannah, and he had lied to her. Did he really think he could keep deceiving everyone and they would just believe him?
He was only fooling himself.
Quennel crossed his arms and leaned back slightly in his chair. “You have no evidence, yet you threatened Sandra into giving false testimony, claiming I kidnapped her and beat her to a pulp p>
“Lionel, I knew you were spineless, but I never imagined you were this pathetic. Sandra was with you for years, your precious mistress. And now to get back into Hannahs good graces, you’re willing to hurt ber and coerce her into perjuring herself p>
Samuel chimed in, feigning shock. “Her family is already bankrupt, her parents are about to be homeless her through

After everything, she doesn’t even
have a good reputation to show for
it and ends up in this mess.
“Being your mistress really is a thankless job, isn’t it!” Samuel said, clearly enjoying
the drama. He even raised his voice, louder than usual.
He wanted to make sure everyone could hear.
His words caused a collective gasp from the surrounding crowd.
People who hadn’t intended to get involved were now drawn in, shamelessly eavesdropping. Some considerate onlookers even started sharing tables with strangers just to get a better view of the unfolding drama.
Hannah stared straight at Lionel. Seeing him still silent, she couldn’t help but laugh.
“So you really don’t have any evidence, and you even threatened Sandra to make her lie for you, is that it p>
“After all, she originally said you were the one who kidnapped and abused her. Today, you suddenly tell me you have proof and she changes her story Do you really think believe her just because she pointed the finger at Quennel p>
Hannah asked, raising an eyebrow.
Lionel remained silent, his hands clenching into tight fists under the table.
He never imagined Hannah would arrange to meet here, of all places, and even bring Quennel along.
He had assumed they would meet at her home, where he planned to use their years of history to appeal to her emotions and convince her to believe him.
But in this situation, appealing to her was out of the question. Just getting Hannah to listen to him calmly was a luxury he couldn’t afford.
“Alright, since you lied to me and have no proof, and you even brought someone to give a false statement, there’s no need to pursue this any further p>
