Chapter 1581
Steven feared that Hannah might announce his bachelor status in front of everyone, so he quickly took the initiative to speak. “Lucas, we’re talking about you, not me. Hannah and I, we know our situation. There’s no need for you guys to worry about us.”
Lucas retorted, “I’m not worried. I just want to know how your remarriage progress is going.”
Steven glanced at Hannah subconsciously, and wanted to say something, but fearing that it might upset her, he remained silent.
Zavier was one to stir the pot. “You know, divorce is like a release. I don’t think anyone would want to escape from the shackles of marriage only to jump back in.”
While speaking, Zavier deliberately looked at Hannah. “Ms. Hannah, don’t you agree?”
Hannah nodded, “Mr. Rivera, you have a point.”
Steven fired back, “Zavier, if you don’t have anything good to speak, just shut your mouth.”e2
Zavier shot back, “Well, I do have something to speak and Hannah agrees with me.”
Jeremy interjected, “Alright, enough. I’ll have the waiter serve the food. We can chat while eating.”
Steven suggested, “After dinner, how about we play some cards together?”
Lucas, whose mind was on his absent wife Rosie, had no interest in sticking around for a game of cards. “I can’t. I need to get back to Ravenna after dinner.”
Steven teased him, “You just got here and you’re already leaving. You should have just stayed home.”
Lucas shrugged, “Next time.”
Zavier, who was still on a mission to find Skyler, wasn’t interested in cards either. “I need to continue looking for Skyler. But if you guys hear anything, let me know.”
Steven turned to Jeremy, “Marc, you’re not going to ditch us too, are you?”
Jeremy replied, “I’ll go with whatever Cornelia wants.”
Steven looked at Cornelia.
Cornelia said, “I’m going shopping with Hannah this afternoon.”
“How about the four of us play? You two and… us…” Steven quickly corrected himself under Hannah’s glare, “us ex-couple.”
Hannah looked at Steven, the first time she really looked at him that day. “You want to play cards with me?”
Steven confessed, “Hannah, as long as I’m with you, I’m willing to do anything.”
Hannah proposed, “This afternoon, Nelly and I are going shopping. If you’re free, you can come and carry our bags.”
“Sure, sure.” If Steven had a tail, it would be wagging with more enthusiasm than a dog’s.
After dinner, Lucas left in a hurry. Zavier was planning to stir up some more drama, but a phone call came in, saying there might be news on Skyler. He left in a rush too.
Over the past couple of years, he had received countless calls claiming to have news about Skyler, each one ending in disappointment. But even with the slim hope, even if it was false information, he
didn’t want to miss any opportunity.
He firmly believed that the heartless woman was still alive. As long as she was, he would stop at nothing to find her.
After Zavier left, the place was left with just the five of them from the two families.
Hannah adored Hope, holding him and not willing to let go. Hope wasn’t shy with strangers and was content being held by her. His cuteness made people want to squeeze him.
Hannah asked, “Nelly, how about we take Hope with us shopping this afternoon?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Cornelia replied, “Do you know how much Hope weighs now? Almost 30 pounds.”
Hannah shrugged, “It’s fine, I can handle it.”
Hope seemed to understand their conversation, his chubby little hand tightly hugging Hannah’s neck. “Mommy smells so nice, I likes.”
