Chapter 52 

Third–person perspective 

The Stain household. 

At this moment, the atmosphere was tense. 

Pamela held the phone and rushed over to Ryder, “This matter, what has happened? Did Hannah destroy someone else’s family? Has the Chairman of Starlight Media publicly clarified?” 

Ryder furrowed his brows, looking extremely exhausted. 

Eva had caused trouble all day, and he had to console her all night, feeling tired and drained. 

Before he could catch his breath, Pamela brought such news to him. 

The Chairman of Starlight Media had tormented him for a whole day and night, but early in the morning, an announcement was released, stating that they were getting a divorce. 

They even made their divorce papers public, and the divorce date was exactly the same as Hannah and Ryder’s! 

What did this mean? 

The Chairman of Starlight Media had the right to date anyone. 

It was his fStainom! 

On the contrary, Ryder’s interference yesterday was unnecessary! 

Creating a fuss out of nothing! 

Damn it, at this time, the media was also confronting him, repeatedly showing him blaming Hannah 

in front of the cameras! 

. “No, this is not Cathy’s fault!” 

“I want to advise that woman, young, healthy, there are many ways to make money, becoming a

third party is foolish and the easiest way to ruin one’s life, it’s best not to do it!” 

These words turned into audible slaps, hitting his face hard. 

Repeating… over and over! 

Ryder couldn’t utter a word, he could only clench his lips and remain silent. 

His silence only made Pamela more worried. 

“If the Chairman of Starlight Media truly wants to clarify things, he should have made a statement as soon as the news was released. But he waited until the next day, after saying those words!” 

“What does this mean? Is it just to help Hannah and make us lose face?” 

“This woman, she is so malicious! She wanted the divorce herself, and now she humiliates us like this, what is going on?” 

“Ryder, don’t let her get away with her arrogance. Now, find the Chairman of Starlight Media and expose her true face!” 

Pamela was always elegant, sophisticated, and high–class, but inside she was extremely sensitive and couldn’t tolerate any injustice. 

Ryder gently tapped his forehead in pain, stood up, and spoke with a satisfied tone, “They publicly announced their relationship, what is there to expose?” 

After speaking, he turned his back and walked away. 

His steps were quick and hurried, filled with annoyance! 

“Ryder!” Pamela called out, taking a few steps to chase after him. 

But in the end, she didn’t dare to force him to come back. 

Since the incident ten years ago, Ryder no longer had any affection for her. 

Now, even though they lived in the same house, their relationship had become 

very cold. 

Ryder walked quickly out of the house, only stopping when the iron door closed behind him with a 

loud bang.

His chest was filled with a sense of betrayal. 

He took out a cigarette, placed it in his mouth, and lit it. 

After a few puffs, he saw a woman standing across from him. 

Hannah. 

Today she was wearing a solid–colored shirt, paired with a long white dress, standing on the side of the road, graceful and slender. 

But just a few days after the divorce, her mood and style had completely changed, completely different from when she was in the Stain household. 

Was it because of her love for the Chairman of Starlight Media that she could be like this? 

The heaviness in his heart grew day by day. Hannah also looked at Ryder. 

With just one look, she could tell that he wasn’t happy. 

In fact, Ryder was not someone who liked to show his emotions on his face, but Hannah was too familiar with him. 

Before, when she knew he was sad, she would feel heartbroken, worried, and restless because she wanted to comfort him but was not accepted. 

But now, she was no longer like that. 

She calmly approached, “The current evidence has proven that I am not immoral, can Eva be returned to me?” 

Her gaze gently looked at him as if looking at a stranger, her lips also formed a gentle and polite 

smile. 

This smile exuded unfamiliarity! 

A choked feeling enveloped Ryder, and after a while, he finally said, “Eva is also my daughter.” 

Hannah didn’t answer, she continued to smile at him, her lips curved in a mocking arc. 

Unclear, but enough to remind Ryder of her previous accusations.

Remembering his indifference towards Eva! 

This silence was more heartbreaking than a direct punch to his face. 

He took a breath, “I need to investigate some issues before discussing Eva’s custody!” 

After speaking, he opened the car door and got in. 

Hannah was faster, grabbing the door that he was about to close, “Investigate what?” 

Ryder just looked at her, not responding. 

In fact, she knew that he was investigating things related to her. 

She wanted to say, what could she ask directly, but in the end, she only smiled lightly without saying 

a word. 

Even though she knew this, he didn’t believe it. 

Hannah bit her lip, letting go with a sense of helplessness, “I’ll give you two hours, after two hours, I must pick up Eva!” 

Not pleading. 

Not negotiating. 

But a decision! 

In just a few short days, Hannah’s transformation was truly remarkable. 

Remarkable to the point of being like a completely different person. 

This momentum, Ryder had never seen before. 

He didn’t reply, he just stepped on the gas and drove away. 

“Chairman.” 

In the company, Linda saw him and approached. 

“Cathy has been severely criticized because of the leaked email incident, is there a lunch

appointment to meet?” 

Ryder didn’t react at all to this, only saying, “Find out the true identity of the Chairman of Starlight 

Media!” 

“The Chairman of Starlight Media?” Linda was clearly very surprised. 

Then she understood, he was concerned about Hannah’s divorce and its connection to the Chairman 

of Starlight Media. 

That woman, Hannah, had no existence in Ryder’s eyes, right? 

Why all of a sudden was he concerned about her? 

“Chairman, I think now you should focus on Cathy and spend more time with her.” Linda was Cathy’s close friend and couldn’t help but remind Ryder. 

“Assistant Linda!” Ryder sternly warned, “If you feel you can’t be a good assistant, you can resign 

immediately!” 

Linda: “…” 

” 

This was the first time Ryder had spoken so harshly to her, and Linda’s face turned red. 

In the end, she could only nod, “Okay.” 

“No need to search for anything else, go find the divorce file from April 22nd!” Ryder reminded softly after Mai left. 

After Linda left, he angrily loosened his tie. 

He didn’t know why he had to look for information about the Chairman of Starlight Media. 

Was it to find out which man could love Hannah to the point of not wanting his own family 

anymore? 

Divorce on the same day, it was obvious that Hannah had been waiting for it for a long time! 

. But why was he concerned about Hannah? 

A shameless woman like her, who had used tricks to force him to marry her in the past, but

constantly claimed it was because he was not good enough. 

Women like her should be pushed far away, no longer having any connection until death! 

Feeling extremely frustrated, he raised his hand and called home, “Arrange Eva’s belongings in two hours, so Hannah can pick her up!” 

“Cry, cry, all you know is crying!” 

After returning home, Diana immediately scolded Eva, 

Being humiliated by Hannah like that, but unable to retaliate, she felt terrible. 

Pamela sat at the tea table, uninterestedly sipping her tea.
