If she hadn't spent time in the Rosenberg household and understood the weight the elders carried, she never would have questioned it.
Hannah's question gave them pause.
Samuel and Cherry exchanged a look, and the pieces started to click into place. Something was definitely off.
It wasn't just the Rosenberg family. Even in their own home, when the three of them were chatting in the living room, the staff would instinctively withdraw.
And even if they overheard something by accident, they would never repeat it. They had all signed non-disclosure agreements before starting their jobs.
So, the story they heard was either completely true, or someone had intentionally leaked it to them.
"Samuel, do you remember if they mentioned anyone else being there? I feel like besides the elders and Lionel, there was someone else."
The story had been so juicy that Cherry had been focused entirely on the details, not on who was present.
Samuel thought for a moment. "I think they said Mrs. Rosenberg Sr. and Quennel were there, but I can't be sure."
He wasn't certain, so he didn't want to state it as a fact and risk misjudging them.
"It was a matter concerning Lionel, and it took place at Grandmother's estate. Quennel and his mother would have certainly been there. Quennel is at odds with Lionel; he would never miss an opportunity to see him publicly humiliated."
