My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce (Hannah) novel Chapter 268

After some hesitation, she had decided to call Lionel. To her surprise, he had said he would bring Hannah personally, which complicated her plans slightly.

The coffee shop was owned by a good friend, and she had already arranged for the security cameras to be turned off. Her plan was to thoroughly humiliate Hannah, and without any evidence, Hannah’s complaints to Lionel would be useless. She could even turn the tables and claim Hannah was the one who had insulted her.

But on second thought, Lionel’s presence wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. After all, she knew he was on her side.

So she had waited and waited. Half an hour had passed with no sign of them, and she finally couldn't resist calling him.

“Hannah’s busy today,” Lionel said, his tone heavy. “Next time you want to meet, you need to ask her when she’s free and let her set the time. You can’t just decide on your own.”

He felt a pang of guilt as he said it. He had taken Hannah’s easygoing nature for granted. She had always been someone who didn’t like to argue over small things, and he had grown accustomed to it, assuming she would just go along with it.

Sandra was stunned by his reprimand.

Was Lionel scolding her? Blaming her?

No… that couldn’t be right. This was… absurd.

“But she has weekends off, doesn’t she? Saturday should have been fine. And I didn’t have a doctor’s appointment today, so I thought this time would work for both of us,” Sandra said, trying to defend herself.

But her excuses no longer held any weight with Lionel.

After a moment, Sandra picked up her phone and called Hannah.

“Hannah, are you still angry with me? Is that why you didn’t come?”

Hannah was lounging on a rocking chair on her balcony, sipping tea and enjoying the view. Hearing Sandra’s pathetic, whiny voice, she chuckled. “Don’t tell me you’re actually waiting for me at the coffee shop.”

“Yes, I’ve been waiting for a long time.”

“And you were late, weren’t you?”
