Sweet Divorce

“Miss Lowe, Rita is having a shower upstairs. Come in and have a cup of tea.”

“Thank you. Mrs. Brown.”

Annie nodded to Amelia politely and sat on the couch elegantly. But her hands were resting on her laps instead of reaching for the tea that was still hot.

Though Annie didn’t come from a rich and powerful family, she knew her manners.

While Amelia was taking a sip of tea, she was actually sizing up this sweet and well-mannered lady with the corner of her eyes.

After a while, she asked lightly, “Miss Lowe, you said that Rita saved you?”

“Yes.”

“I wonder what happened?”

Hearing Amelia’s question, she clutched at her hands and looked terrible.

Sensing Annie’s mood change, Amelia realized that something terrible must have happened that day, so she tried to change the subject to avoid rubbing salt into her wound.

“I heard that Miss Lowe has a great taste in tea. Just so it happens that someone sent me some tea several days ago. Can you help me to identify if it’s really a good batch as they have told me so?”

Actually, Annie knew that Amelia was trying to bringing up some bad memories in her.

Well, she didn’t want to mention it to.

She then cast Amelia a grateful glance, but she still didn’t pick up the tea. “Thank you for the compliment, Mrs. Brown. But you know rumors are just rumors, so it isn’t true.”

Annie was really not a person who liked to show off.

What’s more, the Brows can be somewhat counted as a rich family, surly Amelia can appreciate what was good and what’s not, so it might be smart to not say too much.

She might ruin the image of the person who sent the tea if she said something wrong.

She would never do things that might piss somebody.

Annie was now in her thirties, so she was quite tactful in her way of dealing with people and things.

Surly Amelia can tell what Annie was thinking about, so she just smiled and didn’t press further.

“Mom, look at this. The whole public voice is swaying!” Rose who was fetching refreshments from the kitchen suddenly shouted and raced to Amelia excitedly.

Then she opened a post named “The Background Checks and Analysis of some Critical People Involved in the Browns Mass Poisoning”

Amelia meant to scold Rose for her sudden screeching, but when she saw the headlines on the phone, she forced back her anger.

She then read the post carefully.

The post summarized the police’s statement up till now and ran a careful analysis of Ralph.

Though Ralph wasn’t working for any company. The person who wrote the post found out that he had a close contact with Michael, especially before and after days of the mass poisoning.

The writer even provided a profile of Michael as the president of P. Group.

“P. Group? What does it have to do with this accident?” Amelia was quite confused, just like many of the people who read the post.

But instead of explaining this, the writer just gave a detailed information of Michael’s family background.

Amelia’s eyes suddenly widened in shock when she saw the name and introduction of Michael’s father. “Michael is Eduard Davies’s son!”

Eduard was the founder of the Davies Group.”

The Davies was quite a blooming company sixteen years ago and had a great relationship with the Browns and the Burkes.

Back then, the Davies went bankruptcy overnight. Though it was reported that it collapsed due to a lack of founding and the poor management, the people in the industry knew perfectly well that the Browns and the Burkes schemed Davies together.

This was not a secret in the business circle of the senor people.

So when the write mentioned the Davies, she/he also simple introduced the past relationship pf the Davies and the Browns.

The writer didn’t throw any personal opinion throughout the whole post. She/he just listed the relationship of all the people involved in this accident, but the writer still managed to lead the public opinion to target Michael.

There were lots of comments about this post.

“Holy shit. I really don’t expect that a single mass poisoning accident can have two generations of grievances in it.”

“It looks like that Michael is seeking revenges.”

“The Browns might do some bad things before, but it didn’t justify Michael to kill all those innocent people. This is unforgivable.”

“Right, right. A pretty shitty move.”
