After divorce I am a billionaire novel Chapter 1131

Chapter 1131 Is He Qualified to Compete with Him?

But he only complained about it. He had owed Mavis so much in the past that now he was just reaping what he sowed.

However, there was something even more important than this matter.

He sat up straight and began to analyze seriously, "In this matter, Moore is the most unfortunate victim but also the biggest beneficiary. Could it be that he bought connections and faked his illness?"

Kane shook his head without hesitation. "First of all, Moore doesn't know many people in Crana besides Mrs. Callahan and Raymond. It's impossible for him to have any connections. Secondly, his injuries couldn't possibly be fake."

Kane frowned deeply as he remembered something else. "He really did get hurt badly. No one would spend such a huge amount of money just to frame you because they know how much damage it could do to their own lives."

Anthony felt cold inside as Kane spoke these words. "Who knows who Moore might have offended to end up like this?"

Kane continued speaking with a serious expression on his face, "Moore has only been in Crana for a little over a month now and has been working alongside Mrs. Callahan the whole time while living in the apartment you bought for her. Whenever there's nothing going on at work, he stays at home handling things remotely from there too. So, it's impossible for him to have any enemies other than you. You're rivals that don't like each other very much. After all, you've already hit him once before."

Anthony fell silent.

After all the circling around they'd done during their conversation earlier, Anthony himself remained the prime suspect.

After all, only he had ever had any conflicts with Moore before. NIB might come back again soon enough asking him questions again too.

He rubbed his forehead feeling a headache coming on as thoughts swirled around inside of him about everything that had happened recently. What kind of mess were they dealing with here?

The next morning, downstairs outside of the hospital room:

Mavis spent the entire night sleeping on the accompanying cot.

Throughout the night, nurses would come in to change Moore's intravenous medication, leaving her almost sleepless. As dawn approached, she managed to rest for barely an hour.

"Mavis..."

A weak voice came from the hospital bed, and Mavis was almost instantly awakened.

"What's wrong? Do you need something?"

Moore turned his head to look at her, "You... you didn't return to the apartment last night. Did you stay with me the whole night?"

Overwhelmed with gratitude, Moore's heart melted. His eyes were slightly red, reflecting his astonishment.

Mavis got up, walked to the bedside table, poured a cup of warm water, and fed it to him through a straw. "During my toughest and most hopeless times, it was you who stood by me. You accompanied me for two years, helping me overcome the darkness. Now that you're injured, it's only natural for me to take care of you."

"Mavis, you know, what I want isn't gratitude."

Of course, Mavis knew what he meant.

He wanted her love.

"But all I can offer in return is this, as you know, I am a woman with a child and a family. It's impossible between us."

Moore simply couldn't comprehend it. "Given the circumstances, you still don't intend to get a divorce as soon as possible? He could cripple me today and tomorrow he might do the same to you."

Mavis put the water cup on the bedside table, sat on the edge of the bed, and after several hesitations, she chose to speak out her doubts.

"To be honest... I don't think Anthony was responsible for your injury this time. There might have been some misunderstanding."

Moore's eyes widened in disbelief. "Mavis, you're being foolish. How can you believe his excuses? He's a cunning and ruthless person, and you've seen that for yourself."

"I..."

Moore coughed with excitement, but couldn't wait to expose Anthony's true colors to Mavis.

"On the day I was kidnapped, I personally overheard those people outside discussing. They mentioned Anthony by name, addressing him as Mr. Callahan with a highly respectful tone. When they were attacking me, they also mentioned that I had offended someone formidable and shouldn't have had thoughts about things that don't belong to me."
