"Anyway, this incident is over for now. If Quennel does reveal something about my motherter, we''ll cross that bridge when wee to it."


    In truth, she had considered this possibility as well.


    “Besides, all we can do now is take things one step at a time. He helped me deal with those people. I can''t just go and ask him if he''s deliberately hiding information from me. Even if he is, confronting him now would just prove that I seriously suspect him."


    Hannah''s words convinced them. There was really no point in confronting him right


    now.


    "It''s gettingte. You two should get some rest. We''ve all been running around for this and haven''t had a proper break. If anything elsees up, we''ll deal with itter."


    Hannah stood up and headed upstairs. "There''s no use racking our brains about it now and losing sleep."


    Since Hannah had said so, they didn''t argue. They all went to their own rooms to rest after a long day.


    The next morning, in the hospital''s VIP room.


    Lionel had just taken his medicine when a nurse walked in with a letter.


    "A courier just dropped this off for you."


    Lionel took it curiously. "Who sent it?" he asked instinctively.


    The nurse shook her head. "He didn''t say. He just said you''d know once you got the letter."


    With that, the nurse turned and left to attend to other matters.


    Lionel looked down at the letter in confusion when Hannah''s situation suddenly popped into his mind.


    Hannah had received a letter just like this, which is why she went out to meet those people, leading to him following her and getting beaten and hospitalized.


    This letter could be from the same group of people!


    At that thought, Lionel didn''t hesitate and quickly tore open the envelope.


    When he saw the contents, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his hands trembled.


    The letter imed that the people who said they had information about Hannah''s mother were frauds, hired by Quermel. His goal was to lure Hannah out so he could y the hero and win her favor.


    But, it went on, Lionel''s interference had ruined Quennel''s n.


    His first reaction was suspicion. He thought the letter might be from that same group


    of people, trying to stir up trouble between him, Quennel, and Hannah.


    If he believed it, he would definitely tell Hannah, which would inevitably lead to another fight. She might even think he was just jealous of Quenne! and making things up.


    But on second thought, Quennel was capable of kidnapping and torturing Sandra.


    Fabricating a lie to trick Hannah and then swoop in to save her... it was entirely possible. The letter might actually be telling the truth.


    But that raised another question. If the letter was true, what should he do?


    Should he foolishly fall for it and run to Hannah with this story? As he struggled with what to do, a bold idea came to him.


    At the Temple residence.


    ét


    "Miss Hannah, Miss Hannah! That


    courier came again with another


    letter still


    I couldn''t get a good look


    at him!" the butler rushed in, banding the envelope to Hannah.
