Beyond the Divorce

I thought for a moment and didn't refuse. Instead, I asked, "Where should we meet?"

Matthew seemed surprised that I had agreed so quickly and eagerly provided the location.

I headed straight to the location he mentioned, which turned out to be a club.

As a precaution, I called Johnson again in the car to check on the current situation with Matthew.

Since I had been busy with matters in Bourdamun, I hadn't had time to pay attention to them these past few days.

As I suspected, Matthew's call was related to the withdrawal of funds between him and Liora.

Sure enough, Johnson informed me that the situation was still deadlocked. No one was willing to back down. Strangely, Liora had not signed a contract for Avalon Hills despite not moving forward with the withdrawal of funds.

He said that he had followed my advice and was working on stabilizing other projects for Matthew.

After ending the call with Johnson, I felt more confident. It seemed that Atticus's prediction was correct. Liora wanted to negotiate with Matthew, which was why she hadn't signed the contract for Avalon Hills.

I thought it would be hard for Liora to get this contract if Ardora Construction wouldn't support her. If I hadn't already had a comprehensive plan in place, I would have taken back Avalon Hills at this crucial juncture and let Liora face her downfall.

to prepare him for this. If Liora didn't sign the contract quickly, we would be able to pressure her. I believed she wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer
