All Chapters of Beyond the Divorce: Chapter 1251 - Chapter 1260

He looked at me, clearly unsettled."Do you know why I said that?" I asked Millard.He seemed taken aback by my sudden question but quickly asked, "Why?""Because before I came here, Anson told me that if I encountered any trouble, I should find someone specific," I said, pausing intentionally and looking at him.He immediately became eager, putting his leg down from the stool and asking, "Who?""Someone called Millard Huffman," I said firmly.I didn't know how I dared say that, but I did. My logic seemed clear, and I came up with it on the spot.I was taking a risk, but there was no turning back now. Hence, I continued, “He asked me to find where this person is. Oh, right. He wanted me to check if this guy is still working for Navi too.”“You're lying!” Millard roared.He was right. From my understanding of Anson, he wouldn’t give Millard a second chance, even if he knew Millard was working with Navi. Millard betrayed him, after all.Plus, he had so many men working for him.

"If he trusts you, would he keep you in the dark about who Rory is and where he's hidden?" I risked it all."But Stella knows. In his eyes, you can’t even be compared to a woman. Yet you're sacrificing everything for him. What exactly has Navi given you in return for such loyalty? Is it worth risking your life for him?" I struck his sore spot because I was certain it was what he cared about most.Sure enough, he turned to me abruptly, pointing a finger at me. "How dare you try to sow discord between us?"His expression changed quickly, making me nervous.But as I met his gaze head-on, I suddenly calmed down. I feigned anger and retorted, "You're just a puppet, unable to make your own decisions. Yet Anson still thinks about you after all these years.“If you had been as loyal to him back then as you are to Navi now, you would have risen to prominence in the Huffman family. At the very least, you would have been the top commander, with everyone else beneath you."But what about now

He turned to me curiously.I looked at him. "This time, Navi has no way out.""What are you talking about?" He looked at me incredulously. "What do you mean?"His attitude told me he didn't believe a word I said.I looked at him, reiterating, "He has nowhere to escape.""That’s impossible! Are you really trying to deceive me?" Suddenly, he seemed to snap out of it. "Whoever you are, if you think you can fool me or play games with me, just look at what happened to these two." He pointed at the two bodies on the ground. "Don't think that I have to respect you just because you've got the Huffman family's backing. That’s nonsense. Since I left the Huffman family, I have no intention of going back to them."Tristan sneered at him and said, "Mrs. Chloe, do you see now? He's just a fool. Otherwise, he wouldn't have blindly switched to the dark side. Too much talk leads to mistakes. He's not a truly smart person.""Say that again, and I’ll kill you!" Millard glared at Tristan.I lo

"Once Atlas finds out who dared lay a hand on me, he’ll deal with them. Navi can easily abandon you at a critical moment, saying it was his subordinate’s decision and had nothing to do with him. You can judge for yourself."After saying that, I calmly sat down. The smell of blood in the room and the tension of betting my life on this story I had made up made me feel exhausted and extremely uncomfortable.I glanced at Tristan. "What time is it?"I asked that question to maintain my composure, but to be honest, I really wanted to know the time. My mind was on fire, and I had no idea what was happening inside or what this ruthless killer, Millard, would do.Tristan raised his hand to check his watch. "It's 4 p.m., Mrs. Chloe.”I grew nervous. There were only three hours left until Xavier's operation.Millard looked at me calmly, but he seemed a little nervous himself. He scrutinized me intently, afraid I would deceive him."You can take me back to your base since Atlas is there. Yo

When the men heard what he had to say, they looked at each other in confusion, then turned to Millard.But none of them spoke.Millard glanced at them, growing impatient, and said a few more words before waving and turning away.Then, the room fell silent. Millard asked another one of his men who could speak our language, "What do you guys mean?"He glanced at the two bodies on the ground without hesitation and said, "We'll obey your command, Millard.”Just as those two were about to retreat to the door and turn around, Millard, who had been standing with his back to them, suddenly turned and fired two shots.The two men fell to the ground.His swift actions startled me, and Tristan quickly reassured me. "Don't be afraid, Mrs. Chloe."Millard's expression was peculiar as he shook his head and said, "I can't let you go back and plot against me."Millard was ruthless. We couldn’t leave him alive.I discreetly glanced at the other men, who all had pale faces and expressions of r
