Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 702

Liora's voice echoed behind me, laughter accompanying her words, "Hi. You're too kind. It's just something that had to be done. With all that money invested, what else could I have done?”

I silently cursed her shamelessness. She had taken over someone else's property and pretended to be innocent now.

"Indeed, it's still because of your capability, right? I heard that the couple had done quite a few shady things. Maybe Tanum should be investigated, too. Who knows if they’re doing the same thing?" Someone remarked sharply.

"Oh, please don't say that! The CEO of Tanum is present, so be careful with your words." Liora played the role of a good person.

Her provocations were directed toward me, who had my back turned to her.

But some people just didn't know their limits. Upon hearing Liora's words, someone immediately said, "So what? Everyone knows about the Murphy family’s dirty deeds. Tanum’s ex-CEO has been running the company for so many years. I bet the foundation has long been corrupted."

"Exactly. Liora did the right thing by taking over Ardora. Otherwise, such evil things would happen again."

"I heard it was Matthew’s wife who did it."

"Oh, don't talk nonsense. Let me introduce everyone properly." Liora's voice fell when someone gently tapped my shoulder.

Turning around, I was surprised to find that Liora was tapping me. She stood behind me, smiling and saying, "Ms. Chloe, long time no see."

I gave her a faint smile and replied with a double entendre, "Ms. Liora, you’re quite forgetful, aren't you? We just met when I was injured."
