My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce (Hannah) novel Chapter 429

He had watched everything on the security cameras and was surprised that Hannah didn't hold it against Cherry.

If he'd known how it would turn out, he would have stayed instead of running off. But he missed the show.

But since it was all resolved, he figured he'd just apologize to his sister later. She was his sister, after all. She couldn't stay mad at him forever and disown him, right?

Back home, Mary grew angrier the more she thought about it. She deeply regretted going to see Hannah.

That madwoman was beyond reason, and she had foolishly hoped to negotiate with her.

She instinctively picked up her phone to call Lionel and tell him to go discuss the divorce with Hannah, but just as she was about to dial, she remembered what he had said before.

Lionel was dead set against divorcing Hannah, full of excuses. Calling him would be pointless. After some thought, she decided to call her older son instead. After all, Hannah had a better relationship with him.

“Quennel, see when you have time to meet with Hannah. Ask her what it will take to stop this farce if she won't agree to a divorce. Money? What does she want?”

“We can't let her keep this up. If this goes on, our family will never have peace. Your father even heard about it overseas and called to chew me out. I'm at my wit's end.”

“So what do we do now? One refuses to divorce, and the other is airing our dirty laundry online for sport. You expect me to just sit here and do nothing?”

Quennel replied, “There's nothing else we can do. It's up to Lionel. You should go talk to him again. If nothing else works, send him abroad. Keep him away from Hannah. Maybe she'll accept that.”

If they were far apart, not being legally divorced would feel like one. Perhaps Hannah would accept that.

But he wasn't sure if she would accept it. It was just an idea worth trying.

Mary was silent for a moment. “Maybe that's a solution. I'll try it. We can't let her keep this up.”
