My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce (Hannah) novel Chapter 384

A dead silence descended upon the hospital room. Neither of them spoke, and the only sound was the soft rhythm of their breathing.

“Sandra,” Lionel finally said, breaking the silence. “The fifty million you asked for—I can’t give it to you. And the things Hannah took back from you, I can’t return them either.”

“But over the years, I’ve taken you on trips and helped your family’s business in the city. That should be more than enough to repay the debt I owed you.”

His words hung in the air, their meaning clear to both of them. But Sandra wasn't ready to accept it.

Why should she end up with nothing? While Hannah not only got everything she wanted but had now become a lady of the Temple family!

It wasn't fair!

Why? Why was her life so blessed, while Sandra's was falling apart?

“Sandra, let’s part on good terms. I won’t pursue the matter with you and Owen. I just hope you don’t make any more mistakes in the future.”

After saying this, Lionel took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He gave Sandra one last, long look, his eyes filled with confusion and regret.

Things between them could have been so much better, but she had chosen the wrong path and followed it to this irreparable end.

If he had been more careful, if he had realized sooner that Sandra and Owen were colluding to frame Hannah, his relationship with Hannah might not be in this state. All of this was his own fault.

Sandra sat on the bed, too stunned by his words to react. She could only watch as he walked out of the room.

Once he was gone, she finally snapped back to reality and instinctively tried to follow him, only to remember her injured leg.

Furious, she clenched her fists and slammed them onto the bed before grabbing her phone to call Owen.

Though Owen wasn’t sure what Sandra was planning, he did as she asked.

That afternoon, Owen came to pick her up.

“Even if we have to run, why do we need to go abroad? We could just move to a different city,” Owen asked, puzzled.

“What I’m about to do is not simple. We need to be overseas to ensure our safety. Did you do what I asked you to this afternoon?”

Owen nodded.

Sandra had called him again that afternoon.

Although he had been fired, the staff at the Rosenberg estate didn't know yet. So, still posing as Lionel’s assistant, he went to the Rosenberg residence and retrieved several pieces of the jewelry that had once been given to Sandra. He immediately sold them, securing a large sum of cash. Now, the two of them were fleeing the country with their newfound fortune.
