Beyond the Divorce

Atticus walked to my office and sat across from me.

"Have you been in Foswood all this time?" I asked. I knew he hadn't attended the court session today, but I was sure he had some representatives there.

"Yeah," he responded lightly, "You changed the strategy?"

I knew he was asking about the court trial.

"Melvern Sunny stepped in for her, so we could only resolve the issue with Matthew, though it may not benefit her," I said. "You were right. Melvern is coming for you!" "He's afraid I'll break free," Atticus pointed out.

"But Liora has already been cast aside. I just received accurate information this morning that Melvern's source of funds is unclean, so it looks like he's adopting a two-pronged approach. Atlas has promised to support you wholeheartedly, too," I didn't hide Atlas's meaning.

Atticus's eyes brightened.

"Please thank him for me," Atticus said politely.

"Melvern hasn't found the best way to deal with you yet. Otherwise, he wouldn't hesitate to let go of Liora. But Matthew was released in court today. Liora knows she's useless to Melvern now and even ruined his investment!" I grinned.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"That's not important. What's important is, do you still want Ardora?" he asked.

"What does my decision to acquire Ardora have to do with him?" I asked.

"If you want it, he'll use Ardora to pull you into the circle," Atticus said.

"I won't get involved in their fights. His investment is for Liora, and I have nothing to do with it!" I replied, "Since Matthew was released in court, he's broken free from Liora's trap!"

"Melvern is looking for support and to be someone to control from behind the scenes. He wants Echelon Group, and Ardora is the stepping stone. He seems to prefer you. Don't forget, you have ATL Empire behind you!" Atticus revealed.

"Does he think Atlas can't handle it?" I scoffed. "And I don't want Ardora!" I replied firmly.

Atticus was here to find out what I was thinking. He thought I wanted Ardora, and since Liora wanted Ardora, too, I couldn't let her succeed.

But she had no reason to claim she had invested in Ardora.

And Melanie's time had also come to an end.

Atticus nodded and smiled. "This time, I'll ensure he leaves and can't return!"

"He has several identities unknown to us. You'd better be careful and subtle," I reminded Atticus.

Atticus wasn't surprised. It appeared that he understood his rival as well.

"Regardless of his identities, trying

to control Foswood will not work out for him if he makes the same. mistakes twice, I'll be waiting! Atticus said confidently, showing that he was well-prepared.

"I can rest assured, then. And you don't have to worry about Liora as well. It's only a matter of time before she faces justice. It just depends on how much of a rush you're in," grinned as I spoke, glancing at

Atticus. I found him very interesting.

This problem had taken up most of my youth for over a decade, but I continued entertaining it.

"Oh, by the way, Atticus! Have you sold those houses? All 50,000 square meters?" I asked. "What do you mean?" asked Atticus.

"If still some are available, reserve three for me," I told him. "Bigger ones!"

"Well, it's up to you. I suppose you need more than one or two," He said straightforwardly.

"If you really can't secure the follow-up project in San Cosbech..."

"Don't worry about that. Remember, you need to do a good job with the follow-up design. It'll definitely be mine. Melvern won't be able to intervene since he's now in

Foswood," Atticus assured me

confidently.

"But hasn't he handed over the design to us yet?" I questioned with some doubt.

"He was waiting for the court trial to decide his next step. If everything goes smoothly, he'll be here in a few days," Atticus seemed confident in his victory.

I smiled and said mischievously, "Looks like you're bulletproof!"

We chatted for a while longer before he got up to leave. Before he left, he reminded me to find a way to let him review the initial draft of the design.

As I watched Atticus walk toward the elevator, I thought he had already set up the game.

I was looking forward to seeing how he performed.
