My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce (Hannah) novel Chapter 409

That's how he remembered it, but the details were hazy. He never thought Hannah would hold onto it so tightly.

But even so, he wouldn't sign the divorce papers. He didn't want to divorce Hannah!

The hours ticked by. Hannah finished dinner and was watching a movie with Samuel.

By the time the movie ended, the signed divorce papers from Lionel still hadn't arrived.

Samuel couldn't help but comment, “Looks like he’s calling your bluff. He must think you won’t actually post that stuff online, otherwise he wouldn’t have dragged this out for so long.”

Hannah thought for a moment and nodded. “I think so too. I just don’t understand what he gains from this. Dragging this out and destroying his own reputation… what’s the benefit? It’s not like he loves me. Oh, wait, he did say he fell in love with me.”

Hannah let out a small laugh as she said it.

When Lionel claimed he loved her, it felt like a last-ditch, desperate excuse, as if he had no other cards to play.

But she was long past the age where love mattered. She didn't want love; she wanted freedom.

“Fine, then. If that’s how he wants it, I’ll just have to post it online.”

In a few swift moves, Hannah uploaded the entire story—the context, the sequence of events, and all the damning evidence.

Various hashtags like these shot to the top of the trending topics.

Lionel saw the posts too. He knew Hannah meant what she said and would follow through, but he hadn't expected her to be so fast, so utterly merciless.

Lionel couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

“Hannah, do you really despise me this much?” he murmured with a helpless smile.

His gaze fell on the divorce papers sitting nearby, the ones Hannah had given him the day before.

Did he really have to divorce Hannah now?

Had they truly reached this point?

His brow furrowed, a bitter ache spreading in his chest. He took a deep breath and reached for the agreement.
