Beyond the Divorce

Lauren's thoughts mirrored mine. Under normal circumstances, things wouldn't be so clear-cut. Besides, we've already probed deep into this and found that Melvern's finances were robust.

Behind this financial backing, there was a lot at play. On top of that, Lance wanted to return to Foswood.

"Arthur is truly a bridge." I sighed softly. "I don't believe everything is crystal clear."

Lauren remarked, "The Morgan family's threshold isn't one that just anyone can cross. Seeing him here today indicates that he already has a direction in mind.

Then Lauren asked, "Didn't we see Atticus today? Thankfully, the project for the second phase in Rivendell has already been settled."

"Atticus should be on Celestis Island. He has a stalled project there, and it's quite sizable from what I've heard." I informed Lauren. "Since the beginning of the project in Rivendell, Atticus has been determined to secure it. It's his trap for Melvern." "Let's not forget that it all passes through Melvern regardless of who sets the trap. And now, with Lance back..."

"What are you implying?" I didn't delve too deeply into it, but we understood each other.

After all, too many people were here, and it wasn't convenient for us to talk.

Lauren glanced around me, changing the subject. "Let's find somewhere to sit down. You're wearing heels today."

I nodded knowingly. "Sure."
