Without a second thought, Cherry flatly rejected his absurd demand.
“You just promised me! You said you’d tell Hannah if I told you! Why are you going back on your word now? Are people from the Temple family all so untrustworthy?”
Lionel couldn’t believe how badly this was going.
She had already agreed, so why the sudden reversal?
“Don’t you dare try to guilt-trip me with the Temple family name. The reason I’m not telling Hannah is simple: there’s nothing worth telling. What you did is completely insane.”
Cherry took a deep breath and pinched the bridge of her nose, staring at him in disbelief.
“Breaking up with my mistress and kicking her out of the house… isn’t that what I’m supposed to do?”
After hearing his words, Cherry fell silent for several seconds, wondering if she had misheard him.
It was truly mind-boggling. Breaking ties with the other woman, no longer living with her, and locking her up—the way he said it, you’d think he’d made some monumental contribution to society.
He spoke as if he had made a huge, painful sacrifice. But any normal person caught cheating, especially after a scandal like this, would have cut ties long ago.
Yet here he was, not only bringing his mistress into his own home but also collaborating with her on a plan to win back his wife. What on earth was going on inside his head?
At that moment, Cherry felt a wave of regret. She never should have offered to get involved in this mess.
