Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 716

Someone had mentioned Denton Shaw when I was in Bourdamun. However, he was just a student studying abroad. There seemed to be no apparent connection between him and the Terrells’ troubles.

When Rose mentioned he was the family’s strategist, I knew he was a potential ticking time bomb. Although he wasn’t around, he would be pretty problematic.

I also had to consider Melvern Sunny. I still needed to determine his true purpose for returning to the country. I knew it wasn’t as simple as him returning to make investments.

“Grandma Rose, do you know what trouble Melvern Sunny got into back then?” I asked, thinking she might know some secrets.

“The Sunnys have kept it under the rug. I’m afraid not many will know about it. It’s all just speculation when the family suddenly migrated.”

I felt a little disappointed to hear that. Rose noticed it and asked, “Why do you ask?”

“I always suspected their sudden migration had something to do with Mevern,” I answered.

“It happened so suddenly. There were reports of many projects getting abandoned at the time. It didn’t match Earl’s behavior, so various rumors about the Sunnys spread,” Rose’s tone was casual, and I knew she didn’t know much about what had happened.

She added, “I’m not sure about the details, but I guess it was no small matter.”

“Loss of life?” I asked in surprise.

Rose shook her head solemnly. “It’s hard to say.”

I frowned slightly and responded, “I keep thinking it has something to do with Liora. Melvern was her first love. Did you know that he has returned to Foswood to invest in her?”

“Oh, he’s back in Foswood?” Rose seemed surprised. It appeared she wasn’t aware of it.

“Yeah, he even attended that celebrity gathering. He initiated a conversation with me that night about the investment. He knows Ardora is my ex-husband’s company, yet he asked for my opinion on his investment.” Saying this out loud made me realize something was indeed amiss.

If Melvern knew I was Chlow, he must also know Ardora belonged to Matthew. Still, he casually approached me for advice when Liora took over the company. I suspected Melvern had ulterior motives. No wonder something felt weird that night.
