Beyond the Divorce Chapter 248 Stumbled Upon Something
As I returned to the lobby, I spotted Stella in the crowd. The person with her was Liora. They seemed close as they chatted and laughed while approaching the ward.I wondered if someone we knew got hospitalized but couldn’t think of any friends we might share. Judging by their closeness, they had become quite intimate recently.I paused, then turned to leave since it would be inconvenient for me to follow. Instead, I called Grayson and asked him to find out who was in the hospital.On the way back, I couldn't help but wonder if Stella was visiting Celine. If she were, why would Liora come to visit her? Did they have a connection? If so, it would be interesting. I would have to dig deeper to discover when and how they had become acquainted.That might explain why Celine had given up on the land near Operose during that critical moment. Did Celine have some dealings with Atticus?Back at the office, Carol informed me that Tobshampton Group had sent a representative. They wanted to d
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 249 An Effortless Negotiation
I awaited Grayson’s answer, but he just smiled without a word. My heart pounded as I guessed, “Don’t tell me it’s Celine?”Grayson snapped his fingers. "It is! The old lady has acute appendicitis!"I leaned into my chair, my mind racing. It seemed Liora was involved with Celine. I immediately told Grayson, "Continue the investigation and find out if Celine is connected with Atticus or Liora."Grayson looked at me understandingly. The difference between Celine’s connection with either of them was significant. After Grayson left, I picked up the pen again. The image of that man appeared in my mind, and my heart skipped a beat.I couldn't help but think about the car parked in the woods, wondering if it was him. I took a deep breath, shook my head, and forced myself to dismiss the thought. After all, how could it be him?I got up to find Benjamin to learn more about Tobshampton Group. I planned to secure this contract tonight. I gripped the pen tightly, determined to sign that contra
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 250 Change of Plans
I arrived at the company early the following day to sign the contract with Tobshampton Group.Benjamin was pleased since he had been eyeing Tobshampton Group and Synergy Solutions. That was because they were easy to work with and offered good profits. Moreover, Tobshampton Group's brand dominated Foswood’s market.It was one of my primary demands in my discussion with Eleanor last night.I agreed to a slight price increase, understanding that the costs of raw materials were rising. They offered us the goods at a cost price, and I wanted our sales to speak for themselves.I had laid the foundation for many of our clients when I reclaimed Tanum Corporation, even though Matthew took away most of them. Several clients had already informed me before the celebrations that they would sign with us in the new year.Of the 80% of clients Matthew had taken, 60% had returned. It was a significant show of support. The remaining 40% who hadn't returned even assured me they would go with the new

Grayson promptly entered my office, and I instructed him to commence his investigation.Tobshampton Group had indeed forged an agreement with Ardora Construction, which fell under Matthew's jurisdiction.As expected, few individuals could orchestrate such a move, and Matthew was the prime suspect."But, it wasn't Matthew who initiated this. It was a scheme set up by Liora!" Grayson relayed."Liora?" I was surprised. How did she become involved in this?Grayson explained, "Initially, Tobshampton Group had no intentions of partnering with Ardora Construction. Matthew wasn't even being considered for Tobshampton Group's project. During their previous collaboration, there was friction. "Matthew substituted Tobshampton Group's genuine product with subpar materials in the construction process, utilizing a small factory for production. With minor alterations, he passed them off as authentic."So, when the incident occurred, Tobshampton Group didn't step forward. This time, Ardora Cons
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 252 An Unexpected Encounter
I felt a sense of relief now that things were clear.It seemed that the Tobshampton Group was also caught up in this. This might not end well for Matthew, but he had been too eager to stand out and crush me. This time, he would have to rely on his luck. He and I were like cunning foxes, yet we couldn't outsmart these two clever vixens.Looking at it this way, perhaps it wasn't so bad that I wasn't entangled in this battle of wits with them. I preferred making modest profits in peace and finding contentment.After lunch, I had Benjamin and Carol accompany me to the construction materials market. It had been a while since I last visited.This market was where we had started our journey, tirelessly seeking clients. Reflecting on those early days brought a sense of satisfaction.The market was small at the time. It had grown into the country's largest construction materials hub, offering everything needed for large and small-scale construction and decoration.Grayson was also here.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 253 No Need for Comparison
She smiled. "I thought you were a clean and upright person. It turns out that it’s just a facade. You're aiming for the big fish while disregarding the small fry?" Her tone dripped with contempt this time."Ms. Liora, why make such assumptions? Have I offended you in some way to deserve this treatment? It's rather impolite, don't you think?" I feigned innocence.Since she had laid her cards on the table, I saw no need to dodge the issue."Heh... Is this considered impolite?" She let out a disdainful snort. "You'll do whatever it takes, won't you? Don't act all high and mighty while secretly groveling to the big shots.""Oh?" I responded with a light chuckle, never breaking eye contact with Liora.I had no intention of backing down. After all, I had already crossed her, and there was no way to avoid it. There was no need for reconciliation."In that case, I'd kindly ask you to go back and talk with Mr. Atticus about how I supposedly groveled before him. I'd love to hear about it."
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 254 A Mall Event
I sat in the car for a long time, gazing toward Pleca Park. After rush hour, I started the car and drove home. Perhaps it was from sitting in the car for so long or sheer exhaustion, but I felt dizzy. Luckily, there weren't as many cars on the road at this time, so I arrived home quickly.Upon parking, I spotted my daughter playing in the yard. I approached, and she leaped into my arms, exclaiming, "Mommy, you're back!"She then took my bag and dashed into the house. Shortly after, she returned, grabbing my hand and pulling me outside to play.I had thought about lying down for a while when I got home. However, seeing her so excited, I couldn't bear to refuse.We played in the yard together, sometimes watering the plants and other times tending to the flowers. We played until the lights came on, and it seemed that my feelings of exhaustion had dissipated.My mother called us in for dinner, and we finally entered the house hand-in-hand. After dinner, I remembered the new clothe
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 255 A Torrential Downpour
The crowd behind me surged forward, pushing me involuntarily towards the small stage.I didn't understand these people. What were they so excited about? They were all shouting and jumping around, and I couldn't help but look towards the stage.Finally, I saw him. Atlas, dressed in a sharp black designer suit and a silver tie, confidently strode onto the stage. He looked even more commanding and charismatic than the last time I saw him. My heart pounded wildly in my chest.This was my first time seeing him since that day at the hospital. He seemed larger than life, a true king among men. It was no wonder the women in the audience were going wild. They might have even tried to pounce on him if he was any closer.I hadn't realized that Atlas owned Arkadia Plaza. Even the coveted Sautoir Fine Jewelry, which everyone was clamoring for, was his. I thought Atlas was only involved in development, but I was sorely mistaken.He waved his hand, signaling the enthusiastic crowd to quiet dow
