If her own words had been the shackles holding her captive, then Samuel's were a giant sledgehammer.
With one swing, he shattered all the worries and chains around her heart, which crumbled into dust at her feet.
"Hannah, I won't let you put yourself down. You had a terrible childhood, but you never grew to resent the world or tried to get revenge on it. You even extended a helping hand to others when they were in trouble."
Samuel slowed the car, his voice gentle. "You two walked through the hardest times together. And during that period, he met a woman with power and connections who offered him everything, but he never told you about it."
Actually, when Hannah had first told him the story, he'd noticed a problem but had kept quiet.
"If you hadn’t fallen out, you’d probably have gone to your grave never knowing this secret."
Hannah paused, her eyes widening in shock.
When Lionel had told her the story, she'd had a nagging feeling that something was off, but she hadn't dwelled on it.
But thinking about it now, she instantly understood what had been bothering her!
When he met Sandra, he never told her that he was getting help from another woman. All along, she had believed he built his business on his own.
She thought his success was due to his hard work, his talent, his brilliance.
She never imagined it was because someone was behind the scenes, feeding him connections and money, propping him up every step of the way.
