If she just did nothing, there was nothing Quennel could do.
After all, he couldn't exactly approach her openly about it. If he did, it would only prove he was getting desperate to drive Lionel out of the Rosenberg family.
But whether Lionel stayed or left the family was irrelevant to her. All she wanted was a divorce; she couldn't care less about anything else.
“I have to say, those two brothers are terrifying. So devious and manipulative—one attacks you head-on, the other schemes in the shadows. It’s maddening.”
Cheryl Temple shuddered and said, “Once this business with Lionel is over, we need to keep our distance from the Rosenbergs. Otherwise, I feel like those two brothers will be the death of us. How can they be so despicable? So calculating!”
A genuine fear began to creep into Cherry's heart, making her wary of getting too involved with the Rosenberg family.
Especially Quennel. The man seemed so calculating.
His mind was a labyrinth of sinister plots, and they weren't the kind of people who enjoyed playing such games.
So, if it ever came down to a direct confrontation, she knew, honestly, that they would be no match for him.

After spreading the rumor, Quennel had expected Hannah to come asking about its authenticity before long.
But a full day had passed, and there was only silence from her end.
It was as if she hadn't heard a thing, yet he couldn't just go and ask her directly.
The matter involved the family elders, and if he brought it up with Hannah and someone overheard, the elders would surely summon him for questioning.
He wanted as little to do with those old fossils as possible.
