My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 79

“Lionel, look!” she said, her voice grave as she showed him her phone. “We’re trending again.”

Lionel glanced at the sensational headline and the carefully selected photos. He frowned and took out his own phone to call Owen and have it taken down.

“You know, it’s strange,” Sandra said, putting her phone away. “We used to go out to dinner all the time, and this never happened. But ever since Hannah asked for a divorce, we’re constantly in the news.” She quickly backtracked. “Oh, don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying Hannah is behind this. I know she would never do something like that.”

Lionel’s expression darkened.

“I was just thinking out loud,” Sandra added. “It’s just such a coincidence. And it’s not like this would benefit her in any way. She loves you too much to ever hurt you like this.”

The elevator doors opened, and Lionel strode out without a word. Sandra followed, a thoughtful frown on her face. At his office door, she paused.

“What is it?” he asked.

“Lionel, I think it’s best if I keep my distance. I don’t want to cause any more trouble for you. And if Hannah sees this, she’ll be furious.” She forced a bright smile. “I’ve already caused enough problems. I can’t be the reason for another fight between you two.”

With that, she turned and walked away. Lionel watched her go, his frown deepening. He opened a drawer and took out a new phone with a fresh SIM card, and dialed Hannah’s number.

“Hannah, about the news…”

“Careful, it’s hot.”

The line had just connected when he heard a familiar male voice in the background.
