This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 505 Declan’s Whereabouts

“I am a little surprised,” Sonia said with a nod. “Shouldn’t you be in Norfolk, Miss Stryder? What are you doing here in Seafield?”

The woman standing before Sonia was none other than Melody, the young lady of the Stryder Family who had a close relationship with Tina. A few months ago, when Tina had been kidnapped by Carl’s men, both Melody and the Gray Family had assumed that Sonia was involved in the matter. Melody had used the Stryders’ connections with the government to control the banks, and the banks had forced Sonia to clear all her debts within a short period, all so because Melody could avenge Tina. Paradigm Co.’s business nearly collapsed because of this matter.

Fortunately, Sonia managed to use Toby’s suggestion to resolve this matter. After that, strict investigations had been run on the Stryders because of their involvement in municipal affairs. In the end, Melody was identified as the main culprit, and the Stryders dragged her back to Norfolk. No one heard of her after that incident.

Sonia assumed that Melody would never be allowed out of Norfolk after that incident, but her assumptions had just been proven wrong. “My husband stays in Seafield. Is there anything wrong with me showing up here?” Melody uttered with a rather unpleasant look on her face.

“My apologies, Miss Stryder.” Sonia lifted her right brow. “I forgot that you were married to Peter from the Southfield Family.” Sonia wasn’t the only one who forgot about this—Peter and Melody never had a good relationship, after all. Peter had never fancied Melody, and he would make sure to leave for another city whenever Melody was in Seafield. If he had a choice, he would stay away from Melody for the rest of his life.

In fact, he had even sent out orders to stop others from referring to him and Melody as husband and wife, and he threatened to punish anyone who did such a thing. Eventually, the public ceased to discuss this matter, and the majority of the people forgot about the fact that they were a married couple. Sonia was a perfect example!

When Melody heard what Sonia said, she frowned. Melody wasn’t exactly a feminine-looking woman, and she was relatively tall for a girl. She had the typical look of a strong and independent woman when she cut her hair short and dressed up in a suit. However, Melody knew that Peter preferred hot and sexy-looking girls, so she often dressed herself up to suit his taste. She never appeared in public without flaming red lipstick smeared all over her huge lips. Her facial features didn’t go well with her makeup, but she insisted on dolling herself up in a way that would attract Peter.

I’m not sure I understand what you mean, Miss Stryder. What have you and Mr. Southfield’s divorce got to do with me?” Sonia eyed her curiously. She wasn’t surprised to hear that they had gotten a divorce since Peter was talking about it all the time. They would have gotten a divorce eventually anyway. However, Sonia didn’t understand why Melody was blaming her for

Peter, and that was how my marriage with Peter came to an end. After Toby and Tina called their engagement off, he has been going after you with hopes of getting back with you—everyone knows about this. Toby only decided to help Peter because he wanted to ruin my marriage, and he only did it because he knows that I attacked you in the past.
