He wanted to explain further, but seeing his mother's fury, he knew it was pointless. It was better to leave for now.
Lionel stood up and looked at his mother. "Alright, Mom, I'll go. But I'm going to get to the bottom of this. Quennel himself said I could call the police if I find any evidence that he's involved."
Crash!
Mary slammed her teacup down at his feet. She shot up from her seat, pointed a finger at his nose, and screamed.
"You ungrateful son! The Rosenberg family took you in and gave you this life of privilege, and now you're suspecting Quennel? You want to send him to jail? Are you trying to destroy this family to satisfy yourself?"
She was livid. "Don't you realize what a scandal this will cause? What will people think of the Rosenberg family? Your sordid affair with Hannah has already been all over the news, damaging our reputation!"
"The family has lost so much money because of you, and we haven't even held you accountable for it! And you have the nerve to push your luck? Get out! Get out of my sight! I'll pretend I never had a son like you!"
A nearby servant rushed over to urge Lionel to leave before things escalated further.
Another servant began cleaning up the mess and poured Mrs. Rosenberg a fresh cup of tea.
Fuming, Mary stormed upstairs to the study. Quennel was working and looked up as the door burst open.
