As Sandra said this, a wave of intense fear washed over her.
Because even before Lionel had confessed everything, Hannah had already guessed that someone was behind the scenes, helping him strategize.
It would be simple for her to guess it was her, since Lionel trusts her so much.
The fact that Hannah could figure it all out just from Lionel's apology and confession proved how well she knew him.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have made the connection the moment he said what he did.
But Sandra had never expected Lionel to be so foolish as to admit it.
If only Lionel had denied it back then, stuck to his story that he'd come up with the idea himself, everything would have been fine.
Why did he have to confess?
He's sharp as a tack most days, but pull a move like that when it counts? Seriously?
Seeing Sandra's constant accusations, a surge of anger rose in Lionel, and he spoke in a low, tense voice.
"If I want to reconcile with Hannah, I have to tell her everything without holding back. If I deceive her, she'll just bring it up again later, accusing me of being insincere. Wouldn't that just lead to another fight?"
After hearing this, Sandra gave him a long, meaningful look. She opened her mouth as if to speak, then slowly let out a breath and closed it again.
She stopped listening to him, even turning her head away to pick up a glass of water from the table.
