My Deceased Wife Wants a Divorce (Hannah) novel Chapter 601

At the Rosenberg estate.

When a staff member announced that Cherry had come to see him, Lionel was stunned for a moment. He asked repeatedly, “Are you sure it’s Cherry from the Temple family and not someone else?”

The staff member assured him it was indeed Cherry. The girl’s flamboyant and arrogant reputation preceded her; everyone knew who she was.

Lionel wondered what she could possibly want. Had she been unable to speak freely at the Temple estate the other day and come here specifically to talk to him now?

If so, he needed to see her immediately.

Lionel ordered the staff to show Cherry in at once.

“I thought you’d still be angry about last time and refuse to see me. I guess you’re more magnanimous than I thought,” Cherry said, her tone dripping with mock admiration.

Lionel took a deep breath, ignoring her flippant, arrogant demeanor. “Why are you here today? Have you had a change of heart?”

At his question, Cherry fought the urge to roll her eyes. She coughed twice and deliberately glanced around the room.

That one look was all it took. Lionel immediately understood and dismissed the nearby servants.

The vast living room was now empty except for the two of them.

“Sometimes I really wonder if you’re genuinely stupid or just pretending to be. Was I not clear enough?”

She let out a heavy sigh. “What I mean is, I can give you the address so you can go there ahead of time and lie in wait. The letter demands Hannah go alone. What if it’s a trap to kidnap her or something?”

She looked Lionel straight in the eye. “The Temples has decided to let Hannah go alone. You’re her husband, and even though you’re separated, what if you suddenly showed up to play the hero? Wouldn’t that move her? Maybe this one incident would be enough to make her forgive you, just a little. Don't you think?”

“Of course, I’m not doing this out of the goodness of my heart. I’m here to trade resources—give me what my parents need for their business, and I’ll give you the address.”

If he still didn’t get it after she’d spelled it all out, then he was a lost cause.
