Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 1005

After waiting several days, I finally received news about Matthew.

But what surprised me was his astonishing decision, which truly made me see him in a new light.

He decided to abandon Ardora and filed for bankruptcy.

All ongoing construction projects would enter the auction process to alleviate the burden of high debts, helping him eliminate this baggage. I had not expected him to be so decisive in letting go of Ardora.

This meant he was giving up everything from the past, returning to square one. It didn't seem like his usual style—he always wanted to be successful.

However, his haste often led to failure, and this time he dug himself into a pit.

Having lived with him for over a decade, I knew him too well. Since the day he first put on a suit, he had sworn to me that he would become successful in the future.

But now, by giving up Ardora and returning to the starting point, he was even worse off than before.

Back then, the Murphy family was still together and had a house for shelter. But now, he had nothing.

It was said that his application for the small house we once lived in had been rejected. At least until Melanie's case was resolved, it couldn't be settled.

But the fact that Matthew made such a decision indicated that he had faced reality. At least he wasn't behaving like a madman, throwing tantrums everywhere.

After a few days of quiet contemplation, he suddenly made this decision. I wondered if someone knowledgeable guided him because I had asked Johnson to introduce him to Adrian.

Carol switched on the TV in my office, displaying real-time news. It was the footage of Matthew announcing the news.

This was his first public appearance since being released in court. Johnson was standing by his side, and he looked reasonably well, albeit thinner.
