Classic Novel
Chapter 88
As she boarded the taxi, Declan watched, an unfamiliar unease stirring within him.
His phone then interrupted his thoughts.
Irritably, he answered, “Yes?”
His lawyer’s voice came through.
“Mr.
Edwards, they’ve presented evidence against you.
We need to meet at the office.
”
A short while into her ride, a message from Declan popped up on Hannah’s phone.
It detailed a meeting at Sunshine Coffee the next day to discuss their divorce terms.
After scanning the message, she turned off her phone without responding.
She yearned to finalize matters with Declan and sever ties.
As the sun rose on the second day, Hannah woke up early and made plans with her lawyer to meet at the cafe Declan had mentioned.
They arrived slightly ahead of schedule, finding the cafe empty.
As they settled near a window, about thirty minutes ticked by.
Just as Hannah’s patience thinned and she contemplated messaging Declan, Leah and Eliana walked in.

There was no sign of Declan, but Eliana cheerfully greeted Hannah before joining Leah opposite them.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Miss Moore, Declan’s tied up with work today, so Leah and I are here in his place.
”
Hannah’s response was frosty.
“We’re leaving, Mr.
Brown.
”
“Where do you think you’re going?” Leah shot a stern look at Hannah.
“Do you intend to leave when you figure out you can’t seduce my son here?”
Hannah retorted, “My divorce is with him, not you.
What business do you have here? Can you sign the papers in his stead?”
Leah, unaccustomed to such defiance, and still seething from a previous public humiliation by Hannah, slammed the table, exclaiming, “Just so you know, I’m not as tolerant as Declan.
Sign those papers and be done with the Edwards family!”
“Just so you know, I want nothing to do with the Edwards family,”
Hannah countered.
Simultaneously, the lawyer slid two copies of the paperwork across the table to the duo seated opposite.
“Review the papers.
If all is well, I believe my client is ready to finalize the divorce with Mr.
Edwards.
”
Eliana meticulously went through the divorce papers, then quietly set them down without uttering a word.
Upon examining the agreement, Leah’s temper flared.
She slammed the papers onto the table, her face a mask of rage.
