Chapter 645

“If Lionel really goes to confront Quennel, this could actually be a good thing for us. All we have to do now is wait patiently p>

Hopefully, Lionel would do exactly as Samuel predicted: find Quennel, blow the whole thing up, and let them sit back and watch the show.

Hospital, VIP room.

After Cherry left, Lionel remained seated, not moving an inch.

He held the letter, turning it over and over, examining it from every angle, reading it several times.

He even peered inside the envelope repeatedly, but couldn’t find anything out of the ordinary.

The letter looked identical to the one he had given Hannah. The handwriting was exactly the same, with no apparent issues.

But the biggest issue was that where Quennel’s name should have been, his own name was written instead.

It was bizarre. Logically, it made no sense.

But there it was.

His name showed no signs of being altered or replaced; it looked just like the rest of the text.

That would explain everything.

But it would also mean Cherry was no longer on his side. She had betrayed him.

Yet, Cherry had been bullying

Hannah from the moment she returned home and Hannah wasn’t the type to befriend someone who had wronged her. fo

If that wasn’t the explanation, then what was?

A flood of questions overwhelmed him, leaving Lionel at a loss.

After all, if Cherry didn’t believe him when he said the name was originally Quennel’s, Hannah certainly wouldn’t.

And he had no idea when Cherry or Hannah might show up next.

The more he thought about it, the more his head throbbed with frustration and anxiety.

For a moment, he regretted his actions entirely. If only he hadn’t given the letter to Hannah.

None of this would have happened.

But things had already progressed this far. Dwelling on it was pointless. He could only wait and see what happened next.
