Arnold was dismissive of my skepticism.

"The affair between that woman and Melvern isn't as big a feud as it seems. Just because he stole his wife? Nonsense. Melvern sees Liora as nothing more than a piece of clothing." Arnold seemed quite repulsed.

"Why is that? Atticus doesn't seem afraid of Melvern. But from what I see, there's a possibility that Atticus is right about Melvern coming back for revenge. Could it be because of this report from back then?" I questioned.

I nodded. "Yeah!"

"That's now. At that time, Atticus was just a small contractor, barely making a name for himself."
