Beyond the Divorce

I couldn't help but frown at Johnson's words. I asked, "She's at it again?"

"Yeah," Johnson affirmed.

I cautioned, "I don't have much to say to Matthew. I'll let Adrian handle everything since he knows my stance. My only concern is Charlie. If possible, ask Matthew how he feels about it. You can tell him that we found Charlie's family, but don't tell him I found them."

I didn't want Matthew to think about me because his thoughts were quite unpredictable. If he knew I found Charlie's family, he might misinterpret it.

"Got it," Johnson replied.

"If Matthew doesn't want to be responsible, we'll return Charlie to his family as soon as possible. We shouldn't burden Myra any longer," I clarified my thoughts. After all, we couldn't let Myra be responsible for Charlie indefinitely.

Johnson sounded helpless as he reported, "Chlo, the developers are suing all the halted projects. The situation isn't looking good. Liora orchestrated all of it."

Indeed, it seemed graver than before.

Johnson noticed my lack of response and added, "That's why Adrian fought for this chance to ask Matthew if there are any witnesses who can testify."

I asked, "When's the meeting?"

"Tomorrow morning."
