Refusing to Remarry: Mr. Hawthorne, You Are Out-Chapter 50: Do You Regret the Divorce?

This really caught Leo off guard.

When he put down his phone, his face was still full of astonishment.

Jonas Hawthorne took the initiative to invite him out for drinks?

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence!

Moreover, from Jonas’s tone just now, it seemed rather desolate?

When they met at the hospital during the day, he was full of murderous aura, could something have happened?

With a strong sense of curiosity, Leo immediately wrapped up the matter at hand, turned, and showed up in front of Jonas Hawthorne as quickly as possible.

"What... what happened?"

Leo leaned over the bar, gasping for breath when he asked.

The venue was chosen by Jonas Hawthorne, a high-end club bar, which he booked privately, making it very quiet.

Jonas Hawthorne didn’t answer, he didn’t even turn to look at him, just raised his head and downed the amber liquid in the glass in one gulp.

Leo followed the motion and saw two bottles of brandy already emptied on the table.

His scalp tingled instantly, drank so much?

Could it be that something big really happened?

"You okay, buddy?" Leo’s little heart was directly suspended in mid-air.

To be honest, having known Jonas Hawthorne for so many years, this was the first time he had seen him so lonely and irritable.

The first thought was, could it be that Candace Ford’s child wasn’t saved?

But then thinking again, there was no news from his uncle’s side, it shouldn’t be.

If it wasn’t about Candace, then what could it be?

Recently, although the Hawthorne Group’s stock price has fallen a bit due to the divorce scandal, it’s totally within controllable range. As a veteran in the business field, Jonas Hawthorne wouldn’t see this small storm as anything.

Business is ruled out, then what else could it be?

For a man, nothing but money, power, women.

None of these fit.

Could it be...

Leo suddenly remembered a possibility.

He widened his eyes, somewhat incredulous, but somewhat certain as he looked at Jonas Hawthorne, "Is it because of Raine?"

Thinking it through, only Raine Sinclair remained.

And right after Leo asked the question, Jonas Hawthorne’s hand gripping the glass suddenly froze.

His eyelids drooped, concealing those inscrutable dark eyes, hiding all emotions.

Outsiders might not see anything, but as a brother for so many years, Leo was more sensitive to his every move than anyone else.

"Sure enough." Leo sighed lightly, since he knew the crux of the issue, he wasn’t anxious anymore, got up to fetch a glass, poured himself some wine, clinked glasses with Jonas Hawthorne, tasted the wine before he spoke, "Regretting the divorce?"

Heard when the divorce first happened, Raine stood alone in the rain, gazing at the Hawthorne mansion, eyes tragic, demeanor bleak.

Estimating that the initial period was really hard, but now it seemed like she has adjusted.

The Sinclair Group is thriving, and even went public with bidding, not even giving face to his old friend!

As for this good buddy, he acted like nothing happened right after the divorce, now he’s recalling past spring sorrows?

Jonas Hawthorne glanced at him coldly, "Did I say I regretted it?"

Upon hearing this, Leo understood internally: of course he regrets, just won’t admit it!

But he didn’t dare say this openly, so he switched to a different approach, "Hey, to be honest, Raine truly loved you. I’ve never seen a lady from a wealthy family go the lengths she went. Delivered midnight snacks and little treats to your company, rain or shine, when she was pursuing you? Never argued after marriage, right? Besides, pretty, from a clean family, an only daughter as well..."

Counting these, Raine had a heap of merits.

As for Candace...

Leo couldn’t understand why Jonas Hawthorne liked Candace, clearly she’s not as pretty as Raine, has no backing, just... managed to get pregnant?

Jonas Hawthorne came to drink intending to forget Raine Sinclair, yet after these bottles of wine, not only did he not forget, but remembered more vividly. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Especially this clueless Leo repeatedly mentioning Raine Sinclair’s name, praising her continuously!

Past memories seemed to flood back to his mind.

Leo waited for a while but didn’t hear Jonas Hawthorne speak, so he dared to push a bit further.

"This Ms. Ford, compared to Raine, really falls far short."

As the words fell, Leo felt a strong sense of menace suddenly descending around him!

Aware he perhaps went in the wrong direction, he swiftly changed pace, "Well... no matter how good Raine was, she shouldn’t have betrayed you! Right? That Finn Wyatt from Haworth, infamous for all the wrong reasons, yet Raine even sold your information to him! That’s a betrayal! Must ... must divorce!"

Jonas Hawthorne hadn’t been thinking about this matter, but hearing Leo bring it up, he suddenly had more suspicions.

"Finn Wyatt..."

Murmuring these three words, he slowly set his glass down.

Previously, he hadn’t heard that Raine Sinclair and Finn Wyatt were acquaintances, suddenly finding out Raine sold out the Hawthorne Group, sold him out.

The incident caught him off guard back then; he was furious, but on careful reflection, something seemed fishy.

Leo had no idea what Jonas Hawthorne was pondering, he merely heard him repeating Finn Wyatt’s name, so he followed with, "Heard Finn Wyatt is planning some car show, sending out invitations. Given Raine’s acquaintance with him, wonder if she’ll attend?"

Upon hearing this, Jonas Hawthorne recalled in the afternoon, Leon Grant mentioned Haworth to Raine Sinclair in the car, but Raine declined decisively, her expression unchanged.

If she really had ties with Haworth, she wouldn’t be so calm.

"Leo, check once more who really leaked the information to Finn Wyatt." Jonas Hawthorne said seriously.

"Huh?" Leo hesitated, why suddenly this topic, "Wasn’t it already investigated?"

Jonas Hawthorne narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Check the details."

Even if it was Raine doing it, he wants to know why.

But if it wasn’t Raine, then the person framing her...

Despite doubts in his heart, seeing Jonas Hawthorne’s seriousness, Leo agreed, "Fine, I’ll check it once I’m back."

Investigating a previously checked matter again isn’t anything difficult.

"It’s just..." Leo still couldn’t suppress his inner doubts, "Why suddenly think of this? Plus, wasn’t Ms. Ford a witness back then? Claimed she saw Raine meeting Finn Wyatt herself..."

If Raine was being wronged, then Candace was lying?

Broadly speaking, even Jonas Hawthorne is starting to distrust Candace now?
