My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 60

It was the truth. It was Lionel’s words that had shattered her self-esteem.

She had finally regained her confidence at her old firm, but then Sandra appeared, and her newfound self-worth was trampled again and again.

Thank goodness she had been clear-headed enough to come to the Keystone Group. Working with these people, she was finally realizing just how capable she truly was.

“What?” her colleague exclaimed. “I can’t believe you were ever that lovesick. Just from this morning, I’m already in awe of you. You’re incredible!”

“Exactly! You came in today and solved a problem we’ve been stuck on for weeks. If you’re not brilliant, who is?” another chimed in.

“Who is this scumbag? Did you dump him? Men like that will ruin your life! They’re just afraid their woman will be more successful than them and leave, so they resort to these pathetic tactics!”

One by one, they all chimed in, cursing the scumbag, wishing all sorts of ill upon him and his ancestors.

The scumbag in question was sitting at the next table, pretending to work on his tablet, a vein throbbing in his temple as he struggled to contain his anger.

Hannah caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye and felt a surge of satisfaction.

“We broke up, but he won’t leave me alone,” Hannah said.

“Hah, he probably sees you shining at the Keystone Group and wants to latch onto you now that you’re successful. That’s why he won’t let go!”

“That’s right, Hannah, don’t you dare go soft on him! There are plenty of fish in the sea. We women need to focus on our careers!”

Hannah nodded. “I know. I won’t go soft again.”

Before the meal, she went to the restroom. On her way out, she ran straight into Lionel.
