Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 1080

I looked at Johnson, taking a minute before I spoke.

"Tell me when he’s leaving. When his mother passed away, she left some money. I'll give him some," I told Johnson.

"Isn't that money for Ava?" Johnson asked. "I’ve already taken care of his travel expenses. That should be enough."

"I can't just leave it to you all. Ava has me, and she doesn't need that money. I didn't even want it. I planned to return this money to him if he really turned over a new leaf and started doing honest work."

I had only discussed this with Atlas, and he completely supported my decision. That money was just a drop in the bucket to him.

For Matthew, it was a significant sum.

Besides, Atlas wouldn't let me spend someone else's money.

Continuing, I said, "I won't give it to him now. I don't know what he's up to. Also, all of Melanie's assets, even those her mother stole, are currently in my custody. I'll return them to him in the future, but on the condition that he follows the right path. I'm telling you this now so you can be a witness later on."

"You’ve really put a lot of thought into this, Chlo! He's really... Oh, it's a shame," Johnson said with a bitter smile.

I looked at Johnson again, thinking for a moment. "What about you? Do you have any plans?"

When Johnson heard my question, his expression stiffened. He had probably misunderstood my intentions.

I had only asked to see if he had any of his own plans.

"I… We'll talk about it some other day," Johnson replied, a little perfunctorily.

"You’ve misunderstood me. I was trying to ask if you’ve made any new plans of your own recently. Are you looking to take a break and spend time with your child?" I clarified. "If you don't have any plans like that, I have something for you to do."

Johnson immediately looked at me with gratitude. Obviously, my previous question had made him think I would stop caring about him.

I knew why he had come here today.
