Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 595

I slept through the night until early the next morning. If my growling stomach hadn't woken me up, I might have kept sleeping.

I searched for my phone everywhere but couldn't find it. I gave up, figuring they must have taken it away after I fell asleep to avoid disturbing me.

Hunger finally drove me to get up after lazing around, staring at the ceiling with heavy eyes. I quickly washed up and went downstairs for breakfast.

Grace discreetly approached me, asking in a hushed tone, "Why did she hit you?"

"Don't worry about it. She just loses it every time she sees me talking to your son," I said casually. I didn't want her to be concerned.

"Then just ignore her. That cursed woman will get her comeuppance eventually. Her heart is wicked, and God will deal with her! My son is unfortunate to have her!"

I shook my head repeatedly and staggered into the kitchen. While eating, I thought about yesterday's events. There was a limit to what one could endure.

Melanie's slap gave me a new perspective. It may be time for me to take action.

Taking away Avalon Hills now should be a significant blow to Liora. Seeing the lucrative opportunity slip away, it would devastate her.

I had little time to dwell on them.

After breakfast, I went back upstairs to change, and I took a moment to kiss my two little princesses before heading straight to the office.

On the way, I called Grayson, asking him to come to my office later. I needed to kickstart my plan ahead of schedule.

Carol was already in the office, looking surprised to see me so early. She followed me into the office and asked, "Chlo, why are you here so early today?"

"There's something I need to take care of! Anything special happened yesterday?" I asked as I sat down. "I slept like a log!"

"Nothing special happened. Mr. Ryan handled everything. You were just too tired. You should relax and get some rest." Carol poured me a glass of water. "But today, there is something special."
