Beyond the Divorce Chapter 265 Condescending
Eleanor could sense the tension in the air and whispered, "Who is she?"I chuckled softly. Eleanor didn't recognize Liora, which confirmed my suspicion that Liora had been the mastermind behind the sabotage of our contract, working from the shadows without revealing her face.So, I quietly informed Eleanor, "You might not be aware, but that’s the troublemaker who ruined our deal."Eleanor frowned at me, unsure of what I meant.I continued, "She's the one who extended a helping hand to your boss and caused us to miss a great opportunity for cooperation."Understanding dawned on Eleanor, and she pointed towards Liora, asking, "Her? What's her reason for acting so arrogantly?""She's the wife of the owner of a real estate development company in Foswood. Their company has quite a reputation," I stated calmly."Which company?" Eleanor inquired."Echelon Group," I replied in a low voice.Eleanor was even more astonished. "H-How can someone like her behave that way?"I raised an eye
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 266 Provoking the Crowd
My statement surprised everyone, including Liora. I knew she didn’t expect me to be confrontational. She paused and stared at me but remained silent.The receptionist who attended to me first said smilingly, “Don’t worry, Miss. Let me check how much longer it’ll take for your room to be ready.”“Oh, I’m not in a hurry. Since I’m here, I’ll wait patiently like everyone else. Discussing special treatment for members is unfair, right?” I deliberately provoked the crowd to draw their resentment. After all, Eleanor and I weren’t the only ones waiting.The others also voiced their frustrations. Those who didn’t respond to Liora’s earlier words were equally unhappy with the situation but chose not to express it.One displeased lady added, “That’s right, I want to know the difference between all members here, too.”The receptionist awkwardly replied, “Of course, they’re different, Miss. You’re a regular here, and I wasn’t talking about you.”“Oh, so you directed your words at me?” I smil
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 267 An Embarrassing Day
I calmly sipped my tea while observing Liora. I even smiled at her to show I didn’t care. Her expression grew colder as she glared daggers at me. I found it amusing but couldn’t understand how Atticus could be attracted to such a troublesome woman.No wonder he told me someone needed to humble her.Suddenly, I realized Atticus was trying to protect his assets. Perhaps he had realized Liora wouldn’t be a long-term partner who would share his hardships. Since he had started hiding his interests, he must be preparing for something.Soon after, a woman in a black pantsuit emerged. She looked authoritative, with sharp features and cold eyes. She glanced around and said, “Please calm down, everyone.”Everyone turned to her as her gaze landed on Liora momentarily. I noticed Liora’s smirk, and then she sat down calmly.Liora knew she had the upper hand, saying, “Ms. Kate, you arrived just in time. If you can’t resolve this, me and my friends will cancel our memberships.“Quick, cancel yo
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 268 A Reverse in Situation
Kate smilingly motioned to take my card but froze as she was about to touch it. I looked at her in puzzlement while still holding the card. I didn’t know why she froze.She widened her eyes and observed my face. “Y-You—”Eleanor was as puzzled as me, saying, “Just cancel our membership, Ms. Kate.”However, Kate looked embarrassed as her lips twitched. “P-Please wait a moment. I-I need to make a call.”Eleanor protested, “Why must we wait for you to cancel our membership? You already made us wait for someone to serve us. Do you think we have that much free time?”“I-It’s not that, Miss. I just need you to wait a moment.” Kate’s expression showed something was amiss.Liora was just as confused but appeared dissatisfied. “Ms. Kate, my friends and I will cancel if you have trouble handling the situation!”She slapped her card on the coffee table before turning to her friends, saying, “Girls, let’s go!”Her friends followed suit and placed their cards on the table, declaring, “We’re
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 269 Diamond Card
Liora looked like she had misunderstood something. She glared at Kate, asking, “Did I mishear you?”"Yes, Mrs. Liora, I’ll process your membership cancellation immediately," Kate became more assertive and called the head of the membership department to start the procedure."Wait!" Liora roared, "Kate, what do you mean by this? Tell your boss to explain things to me!”"I'm sorry, Mrs. Liora. Please don't make things difficult. It’s my boss’s decision.""What do you mean? Why won't you process hers?" Liora was outraged, forgetting her reputation. Her friends also became agitated. "Exactly. Why are you canceling ours?"Liora stepped forward and glared daggers at Kate. "Do you want me and my friends to cancel our memberships?”"Mrs. Liora, since you insist on canceling, I can only comply. If I cancel theirs, we'll have to close the spa immediately. So, I'm sorry, Mrs. Liora." Kate paled despite her anger.“Why would you need to close?!” Liora exclaimed."Because these two ladies' h
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 270 Offering An Olive Branch
Soon, the remaining patrons got their turns while I went inside with Elanor.Kate came in to tell me that they had prepared the best masseur for us. During the massage, Eleanor and I discussed what had just happened. She smiled, and we grew closer.Afterward, I took her to a nearby Crispy Crust. Most knew the restaurant for its pizzas, and we ate while continuing our conversation. Eleanor told me about how she had met her boss. I knew she was capable, and I felt tempted to be on her side.I tried probing, “What will you do if the boss’s wife gives you a hard time?”“I haven’t thought that far, but I’ve been involved with him for a long time. I don’t want to make things awkward for my boss, but I don’t want to continue life like this. Perhaps I must decide soon. Maybe I’ll leave him.”"Have you thought it through?" I asked."There’s nothing much to consider. My boss can’t give me what I want, and I can’t stay by his side forever. I don't want to work hard for him only to get nothi
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 271 Meeting My Daughter on Her Birthday
When he spotted me, he got excited as if he had just won the lottery."Chloe, what a coincidence! You're here early, too? We were planning to go together. I wanted to see our daughter as soon as possible!" He stepped out of his car and briskly walked toward me.I put some distance between us. I wasn't keen on our daughter going out to dinner with him. Firstly, I didn't trust him at all. It also felt like a stab in the heart.I quickly dialed my mother's number, fearing she might run into Matthew. I didn't want her to feel upset.Only then did I welcome our daughter out. Upon seeing Matthew, Ava hesitated for a moment. She instinctively looked up at me, and I understood her feelings. This child had learned to read the room.Matthew, on the other hand, seemed natural. "Hey there, princess! Did you miss Daddy? Let me have a look!"Ava didn't move, keeping her gaze on me."Say something, honey. Your dad wants you to join him for dinner. He was busy yesterday, so today, he's maki
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 272 There's Been an Accident
As I expected, Melanie approached Matthew like an enraged bear when she got out of the cab. She took a staggering step toward Ava.I cried out in alarm and rushed forward, embracing Ava tightly. Melanie viciously grabbed my hair and yanked my head backward.Ava was instantly frightened, crying loudly, "Mommy... Mommy..."The stunned onlookers let out a collective gasp. No one dared to intervene with the heavily pregnant woman."Matthew, have you gone mad? You dare sneak around behind my back to meet them? I'll finish off these two wretched women. Let's see if you'll still be cozying up to them!" She cursed vehemently while fiercely tugging at my hair. I was forced to tilt my head back, struggling to free myself from her grip. However, the space was too confined, and I feared accidentally bumping into her belly. After all, she was well into her pregnancy, and I worried I might cause harm.Our child cried out hoarsely, and I could hear Matthew shouting, "Melanie, what the he
