SW NOVELS
Chapter 627
“I believe we’ve only met a handful of times, Mr.
Edwards.
I wouldn’t exactly call ourselves ‘old friends’.
”
His tone was kind, gentle even, but it effectively stopped Declan from blurting out his true intentions.
Feeling humiliated, Declan did as he always had and pinned the blame on Hannah.
He turned to her and asked, “Didn’t Bryson come with you?NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
Or, don’t tell me…”
He paused pointedly, a glint of malice flashing in his eyes.
“Has he abandoned you already? Didn’t I warn you that someone of his standing is even more unreliable than the ones you’re used to? I mean, why would he fall for a divorcee in the first place?”
Hannah’s hand balled into a fist.
She had to fight the urge to plant it in Declan’s face.
Thankfully, she was able to swallow her anger.
“I don’t see how that has anything to do with you, Mr.
Edwards.
”
“Oh, it has nothing to do with me at all,” Declan said mockingly.
“I just don’t want you to disgrace yourself any more than you already have.
As my ex-wife, you are still unfortunately related to the Edwards family name.
”
Hannah narrowed her eyes at him and sneered, “We’ve been divorced for half a year.
Whomever I choose to be with or what I decided to do with my life is none of your business.
What, did you expect me to spend the next three years living Like a forlorn widow?”
Declan’s expression turned ugly.
Was she cursing him with an early death or something? But then he heard a suppressed chuckle from his other side.
Layne was holding his fist against his mouth, but it did little to hide his grin.
“Oh, sorry.
Please continue.
”
“Hannah! Just what do you mean by that?” Declan was getting increasingly angry.
How did this woman become so arrogant in such a short time?
Without warning, he grabbed Hannah by the wrist and pulled her forward.
“Don’t forget that you still hold 20% of the Edwards Group.
”
“Oh, so you want me to be thankful for that?” Hannah retorted with a sarcastic smirk.

“No way.
Your grandmother gave those shares to me, Declan.
That has nothing to do with you either! You even refused to give me a few million when you demanded a divorce, remember?”
“If I’m not mistaken,” Layne interjected, “the current assets of the Edwards Group exceed a billion in value.
Yet you couldn’t even pay your ex-wife ten million or less? It appears that you are quite the unreliable partner, Mr.
Edwards.
”
Declan’s face turned an alarming shade of red.
He had meant to insult Hannah, but things ended up going the other way around.
“Come with me! I have something to discuss with you in private!”
Declan was so enraged that he was already yanking her in the direction of the door.
“Let go of me!” Layne’s face turned cold.
Just as he was about to help Hannah, another voice spoke from a few feet away.
