Beyond the Divorce

Chapter 860 She's Just Bait

When she heard my question, Myra fell silent for a moment. I could tell that she must be feeling a little sad.

After a brief pause, she sighed. "Well... you're right. But still, he has family. He's a treasure, and no matter how good he is with me, it's not the same as living with his own family. Blood is thicker than water, after all." I could hear the helplessness in her voice.

"That's right. Talk about it with Johnson and consider having a second child soon maybe," I said softly, "Don't worry; your burden will only get lighter, and you'll do well with Johnson in the future."

I intentionally hinted at something with my words. Since Johnson had turned over a new leaf and passed the test of time, I believed he was someone worth trusting. It was clear that he could handle things on his own, especially after Matthew's incident. He had been Matthew's right hand, but he was no longer as important after Melanie joined the company.

I had plans for his future.

I was confident that Myra could pick up on the implications in my words.
