Mr. Michael Rosenberg never imagined that Hannah hade prepared today, not just on a whim.
"I bet those paparazzi outside were hired by her. Otherwise, how could they show up the one day we don''t have patrols? It''s obvious Hannah tipped them off. The moment she leaves, the news is out."
The thought that all three of them had walked right into Hannah''s trap made him feel
even worse.
He couldn''t believe that Hannah, a woman in her twenties, had dared to scheme against them, the family elders.
"Lionel, oh Lionel, look at the mess you''ve made! None of this would have happened if it weren''t for you!"
Mr. Michael Rosenberg red fiercely at Lionel. "If you had just agreed to a clean divorce with Hannah from the start, none of this would be happening! Everything would be peaceful."
"But now, you''ve dragged the three of us elders into the trending topics with you, making us aughingstock. Are you satisfied with this oue? Are you happy now?"
Furious, Mr. Michael Rosenberg repeatedly struck the floor with his cane, the thuds echoing in the room.
"How can you be so sure Hannah did this? Maybe those people were already camped out nearby."
Lionelpletely disagreed with the elder''s assessment.
"After all, everyone is desperate for news about our familytely. You can''t just pin the me on Hannah for this."
Hearing Lionel say this, the elders were stunned. They couldn''t believe that even now, Lionel was still defending Hannah.
"It doesn''t matter whether she did it or not. The point is, none of us here had leaked what Hannah said to you today yet the media already knows everything."
“Did any of the four of us report this to the press? No. Which means Hannah was the one who leaked it."
Mr. Edward Rosenberg analyzed the situation. It wasn''t hard to see that Hannah was the mastermind behind it all.
After all, with Lionel trending, both he and the Rosenberg family were now like fish on a chopping block, at the mercy of public ridicule.
"Well, now everyone knows you two are heading to court for a divorce So you don''t have to bother with excuses about not knowing or not being aware and then deliberately not showing up."
"When that dayes, the entire inte will be asking if you went
I''m telling you, if you don''t show up, you bring shame upon the
Rosenberg family
After saying this, the other elder mmed his hand on the table, ring at Lionel in frustration.
Things had reached this point. The only thing to do was to make sure Lionel showed up on time.
After all, since Hannah was bold enough to do this, if he werete, she would undoubtedly sic a horde of reporters on him to tarnish his name further.
She might even have a crowd waiting for him at the courthouse.
If he did that and waste, the situation would be unmanageable. The thought gave the elders a collective headache.
Lionel listened to the elders, not saying another word, but his brow remained furrowed as he stared at the online discussions.
An growing unease settled in his heart. He wasn''t sure if Hannah had actually done
this.
