Beyond the Divorce



Unable to Turn Things Around

I nodded earnestly. I knew that only someone who cared for me genuinely could say such things.

"I know. After helping him clear his name this time, I will step back completely. I just told him not to seek help from me anymore. I have no obligation to always speak up for him. I've decided to stop my involvement no matter what."

Lauren looked at me. You said that yourself. Remember it. Some things should be done for those who deserve them. But Matthew...

Lauren sneered, shook her head, and said, "He's not worth it, nor does he deserve it. He and Atlas are worlds apart. There's no comparison, not considering their wealth or status. Just based on character, he is a complete loser.

"If you ever feel soft-hearted again, think about all the nonsense he did to you before."

I chuckled. I felt like a child she was protecting, and what Lauren said was indeed true.

Adrian called me again, informing me that he had applied for a trial postponement. This would give us some extra time to gather evidence.

Back at the company in the afternoon, Grayson was waiting for me in the office. He handed me a stack of documents related to Liora's recent activities. I looked at them seriously and was amazed. "You can even get these?

Grayson confidently smiled, "As long as you want it, I can get it for you. This time, she's gone too far. We've found the car that hit you, and the driver is currently detained in the warehouse area. He has already confessed to it."

He pointed to another set of documents and said, "Look at this. We have everything on audio and video."

I slapped the table. "That's great. Let's see how she turns the tables this time.

'How about your investigation into Melvern?" I asked Grayson while tidying up the documents.

"His current business status seems fine on the surface. He owns several major trading companies, and their operations seem normal."

"Normal?" I expressed doubt.

"However, he has almost no business dealings with Lance. Lance's businesses are all from the Sunny family's old, relatively conservative businesses." Grayson guided my thoughts.

"It seems that the Sunny family's business is now managed by the eldest, Lance. That means the family did not allow Melvern to join their company." Grayson said. "Chloe, do you think there's a problem with this?"

I pondered the situation. "Are you suggesting that the Sunny family is afraid Melvem might ruin the family, so they've distanced themselves from him?"

Grayson slammed the table. "You're sharp. Another crucial point is that Melver's funds are quickly circulating. We're digging deeper into this, hoping to find issues from this aspect." "It seems like he does have some problems."NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

"There must be problems. How could Melvern rise so rapidly without relying on his family business? if he could get rich by staying low-key, he would have become a prominent figure in Foswood long ago."

I said, "And keep an eye on Denton as well."

Grayson leaned back into the sofa, thoughtfully responding. "No movements on his end so far. He's very disciplined and just studying. He does socialize occasionally, but always only with his classmates. However, I feel it's the calm before the storm.

"Unusual occurrences often indicate something sinister. Keep a close eye on him. I've already briefed Noah about his situation. As long as he doesn't threaten Bourdamun's development, it's not a significant concern for us." I casually informed Grayson.

However, ironically, this person would soon become the biggest threat.
