Beyond the Divorce

She stared at me, her gaze unwavering.

Then, she let out a disdainful snort. "Looks like things are really tough for you, Chloe. You were dumped, but you're still very devoted to your cheating ex-husband. It's clear that you worry about him. Unfortunately, it didn't matter how clever you were. He still walked away with the assets. Do you really think you're so smart? You're just a wife he cast aside. It's a pity Ardora has nothing to do with you." Liora used the opportunity to belittle me smugly.

I wasn't bothered at all.

I played with the cup on the table and casually responded, "You got one thing right. Ardora has nothing to do with me. But it has even less to do with you. If Ardora's going on the market, I'd discuss it with Melanie or Matthew, not you."

I glanced at Liora with a sly smile and added, "What? Did you really think you could do whatever you wanted after infiltrating them? There's no way that would happen."

"So what? Even if you want to help Matthew turn things around, Melanie can just testify against him. He'll have to stay inside," Liora said fiercely. "Don't forget, Melanie is the primary witness and the legal representative. If she insists, you won't stand a chance."

I just stared at her and withheld the words that were on the tip of my tongue. I couldn't say too much now. Loose lips sink ships. I couldn't risk tipping my hand.

"I just want Matthew to taste the bitterness of betrayal and lose everything for a lover's whims. And this will be all because of his sweetheart's actions. Haha... You should thank me, Chloe. I helped you get revenge for your stolen husband!"
