When I returned to my office, I sought Grayson and gave him a task. Coincidentally, he also handed me a report of his investigation. I was surprised to receive it so quickly. I couldn't help but admire his efficiency and praise him.However, Grayson was serious when he said, “Don’t get too excited, Ms. Chloe. This is just surface-level information, and there seem to be no issues at all. Still, my gut feeling tells me something’s off.”The investigation report was about Stella, detailing her birth, parents’ passing, adoption, and school history.“It's right here.” Grayson pointed something out. “It says she attended primary school here, one of the most famous schools in Nocturnia. However, I couldn’t find any pictures of her from that period.“Also, I only found one picture of her during high school, yet she lists photography as one of her hobbies. Why would a girl with such a hobby have no pictures or videos of herself?” Grayson looked at me with a questioning expression as he spok

“When did you get back?” I asked joyfully.“I’ve been back for two days now,” Atlas replied flatly. Although he sounded calm, I felt disappointed. It seemed I wasn’t that important to him since he could come and go without notifying me.My mood plummeted, and I said nothing.He continued, “You don’t need to worry about that and just focus on your work.”"What do you mean?" I replied, slightly annoyed."Do you have time to worry about me?" he spoke forcefully, avoiding my question.I knew he was in a bad mood, so I didn’t respond. Instead, I hung up, thinking he should know what it feels like for me to hang up on him. I waited a while, but he didn’t call me back. I felt even more dejected.While scrolling through my phone, I realized I hadn’t seen Ivanna and Lauren for several days. I called them, but Ivanna’s line was busy. Immediately after, I called Lauren, and she answered with a complaint, “You finally remembered me!”“Why are you like Ivanna? You’re always complaining like
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 230 What a Coincidence
I saw a black Maybach pulling up at the entrance. A tall and well-built figure appeared. He was charming in his black trousers and black shirt with two undone buttons. The man had meticulously groomed jet-black hair and wore sunglasses.He drew the crowd’s attention when he removed his sunglasses. Soon after, he opened the car door and assisted an elegantly dressed woman. Her attire seemed exaggerated, with sunglasses, a scarf, and a mask.However, the figure was alluring, and I knew she wasn’t Stella. She gracefully exited the car and wrapped her arm around the man’s arm. She appeared delicate and charming.I recognized Atlas but not the woman. My heart ached, and I realized why he sounded so impatient earlier. It seemed he didn’t want me to waste time worrying about his whereabouts because he was busy pampering and accompanying that woman.Although Atlas sounded irritated earlier, he was now smiling. I stared at him and the woman in a daze as they strolled into the clubhouse.My

I splashed water on my face and took deep breaths. Lauren called for a drink and handed me a glass. I felt calmer after downing it. Then I covered my face with a towel and said, "Go ahead and chat. I'll rest for a bit.""Why are you napping all day? You just slept in your car, and now you're sleeping again?" Ivanna teased me, giving me a playful nudge. "What's going on with you?""There's too much going on lately. I'm working myself to death! Cut me some slack, will you?" I replied from behind the towel. Tears had already mixed with the water droplets on my face. Ivanna didn't press me and chatted with Lauren instead. I regained my composure before removing the towel from my face."Weren't you napping?" Ivanna asked. "You know, you do look like that actress I mentioned earlier. Chloe, I'll be your manager if you ever want to step into showbiz. Although you're much prettier than her.""Step into showbiz? I’m about to step into another world." Lauren handed me a glass of wine

"Doesn't she look a bit like you?" Ivanna looked at me and asked, "I used to have a good impression of her. There's something about her that resembles you. But now... damn! She's trying to climb the ladder..."Ivanna's words made my heart race. Did I look like Annalise? Or rather, was it Harmony who resembled Annalise?Atlas held a deep affection for Annalise. He wouldn't let any woman resembling her slip through his fingers. He was looking for Annalise's shadow. Harmony and I fit the bill.It appeared that his quest for an Annalise doppelganger had never ceased. Perhaps he had found me lacking.I chuckled and sipped my drink. "How long has Harmony been in the limelight?""Not even two months! Strange, isn't it? Suddenly shooting to fame!" Ivanna dismissed it with a wave of her hand.Two months… I was already divorced by then, and Atlas had taken over the ATL Empire.He knew how to make the most of his time. An unexpected rising star must have caught his attention. This meant
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 233 Return of the Scumbag
I spotted Matthew, who had disappeared for quite some time.I had just parked at the company’s underground garage when he appeared at my car, dressed sharply. I didn't know how he found me, almost as if he'd been keeping tabs on me. He smiled warmly and even opened the car door. "Chlo!"It seemed I had forgotten about this person's existence. Seeing him again felt like waking up from a dream and returning to reality.I sighed. How was this man still alive? As soon as he appeared, I felt sick again."Move aside!" I spoke icily."Chlo, I was wrong! Don't hold it against me. I came to apologize to you today." Suddenly, Matthew seemed to revert to his former self. "Chlo, I've missed our daughter!"He blocked me, acting like he was really sad. Even his eyes looked watery. I didn't know if he really cared about our daughter."Listen, it's been tough for both of us since our split. We're not happy," he said. "I miss our daughter a lot. Can I see her? And also, my mom is sick, and she
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 234 Taking the Wrong Approach
This idea made me feel helpless because I knew I had to face this alone. It had always been that way—I had to save myself.The lobby was crowded, but none of them were familiar to me. I felt even more lonely.Back in the office, Carol brewed a cup of coffee for me. She watched me quietly, and I knew she was worried. I maintained an air of nonchalance while keeping busy. Thankfully, I had resolved the two previous issues and set everything in motion.During lunch, I spotted Johnson. He seemed genuinely surprised to see me since we hadn’t seen each other in a long time.He beckoned me over, and I joined him for lunch."Chlo! Long time no see! I heard things are going well on your end." Johnson wore a big smile."It's alright, I suppose. How’s Myra and your kid? Is he being a handful?”"They're doing great! No trouble at all!" Johnson ordered more food and said, "Mr. Matthew just closed a big deal with a company in the neighboring city. It's a major contract, but he's keeping it qu

I had an idea and casually remarked, "It seems that Matthew's luck knows no bounds!" "Absolutely! Otherwise, he'd be in a tough spot. He mentioned during the meeting that he's focusing on projects outside the city to avoid competition. Now he's busy preparing for it.""I heard his mom isn't doing well," I said casually."Yeah, not too good." Johnson nodded.After some small talk, I left the restaurant. My mind was filled with thoughts about Grace. Maybe I had been too stern and shouldn’t harbor ill feelings. However, there wasn’t a single Murphy worthy of pity.Back at the office, I summoned Grayson. "Look into who Matthew contacted after he was attacked. Also, find out which companies are handling projects in Muborough."Grayson nodded. "Is there anything wrong?"I replied, "Matthew secured a contract in Muborough while in the hospital. Find out how he got it, especially who he interacted with during his hospitalization. He went on a business trip right after being discharged
