My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 23

Lionel looked up at her. Besides him and his assistant, no one knew that Sandra was joining the Rosenberg Group. How could she possibly know?

“What, am I wrong?”

The thought of him targeting Tess just to get at her made Hannah’s blood boil.

Seeing her defiant stance, he concluded she must have planted spies in his company. She claimed she wasn't joining the Rosenberg Group, only to turn around and join the Lancaster Group, and now she was here to grill him. When had she become so calculating? She used to be so simple, so sweet.

“Your little scandal hit the news last night,” Hannah continued, her voice sharp. “Your PR team did an amazing job shutting down the story, but your legal department managed to target the wrong person. If you have enough money to pay for incompetence, you might as well donate it to charity. It would be better for your soul.”

At the mention of the news, Lionel froze.

“Tess took the photos, but someone else wrote and published the article. Lionel, are you going after Tess, or are you going after me?”

Tess had been a journalist for years and had covered the Rosenberg Group before, even breaking major stories without a peep from Lionel. Was this because of her, or because the story was about Sandra?

“What photos?” his grandmother demanded.

Hannah said nothing, simply turning her gaze to Lionel.

“What photos are they?” his grandmother pressed.

Lionel’s face hardened. “It’s nothing. The matter has been dealt with.”

Seeing his reaction, his grandmother pieced it together. Her anger flared. “It was Sandra, wasn’t it? You’re a married man! Why are you still getting so close to other women? You say you keep your marriage private to protect Hannah from harassment, but you need to remember your own status! You… you…!”

She pointed a finger at Lionel’s nose, shaking with frustration.
