Chapter 725
If she just did nothing, there was nothing Quennel could do.
After all, he couldn’t exactly approach her openly about it. If he did, it would only prove he was getting desperate to drive Lionel out of the Rosenberg family.
But whether Lionel stayed or left the family was irrelevant to her. All she wanted was a divorce; she couldn’t care less about anything else.
“I have to say, those two brothers are terrifying. So devious and manipulative—one attacks you head-on, the other schemes in the shadows. It’s maddening.”
Cheryl Temple shuddered and said, “Once this business with Lionel is over, we need to keep our distance from the Rosenbergs. Otherwise, I feel like those two brothers
will be the death of us. How can they be so despicable? So calculating!”
A genuine fear began to creep into Cherry’s heart, making her wary of getting too involved with the Rosenberg family.
Especially Quennel. The man seemed so calculating.
His mind was a labyrinth of sinister plots, and they weren’t the kind of people who enjoyed playing such games.
So, if it ever came down to a direct confrontation, she knew, honestly, that they would be no match for him.
After spreading the rumor, Quennel had expected Hannah to come asking about its authenticity before long.
But a full day had passed, and there was only silence from her end.
It was as if she hadn’t heard a thing, yet he couldn’t just go and ask her directly.
The matter involved the family elders, and if he brought it up with Hannah and someone overheard, the elders would surely summon him for questioning.
He wanted as little to do with those old fossils as possible.
But right now, he was desperate to know if Hannah had heard the news.
Knowing her personality, she would have certainly come to inquire about the reasons behind it if she knew.
Her continued silence made him wonder: had the rumor not been spread effectively enough? Had she not heard it?
Quennel mulled it over and decided to have a servant subtly drop the hint to Hannah again.
Perhaps the initial attempt hadn’t been effective, and the news simply hadn’t reached her.
Otherwise, knowing Hannah, she would have been at his door by now.
After all, everything he’d done was aimed at ensuring Lionel’s complete and utter downfall.
It was impossible that Hannah would simply ignore something this significant.
If Lionel were disowned by the
Rosenberg family, she would be the biggest beneficiary it would make. her divorce proceedings incredibly straightforward.
Around noon, Hannah finished a Yvesitancaster was away
on a negotiations would have
ness trip, so contractel
6, wawait.
She went to a cafe for lunch, and just after ordering and sitting down, she saw a flood of messages in their group chat.
[Cherry]: Wow, you guys. Hannah was right. I’ve had so many people ‘casually’ mentioning it to me today.
[Samuel]: Same here. It feels like it’s officially common knowledge now. Quennel really pulled out all the stops!
[Cherry]: It’s spread so far and wide, I’m almost tempted to get it trending online. Let everyone know the great Rosenberg elders are about to kick Lionel out just to save face. Lol.
