Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 724

To my surprise, it was Melvern.

He noticed me and walked toward me with a smile on his face.

"Ms. Chloe, what a coincidence. We meet again," he said, looking at me like an old friend.

"Mr. Melvern, hello." I nodded politely, wondering why he was there. However, I didn't ask.

"Are you heading out?" he asked casually, glancing at me.

"Yes, just stepping out for a bit." I smiled faintly. "Are you here for business?"

"Yes, I'm here to meet an old friend," he replied, seemingly carefree. "Which floor is your company on?"

"The 10th floor," I answered, but I didn't extend any courteous invitation for him to visit.

I was sure that if I did, he would show up at my door tomorrow.

"Ms. Chloe, could I invite you for a chat sometime when you're free? I have some questions I'd like to consult you about," he asked politely.

I knew that this was just an excuse.

"Mr. Melvern, you're too courteous. I wonder which aspect of knowledge you are seeking,” I replied distantly. This guy was like gum at the bottom of my shoe.

"Of course, it's about construction." He smiled pleasantly and said, "However, I'd also like to have a casual chat with you, Ms. Chloe."

At that moment, the car sent by Atlas arrived at the entrance. I quickly said, "Sorry, Mr. Melvern, my ride's here, and I'm pressed for time. Let's chat another time! We can have a sit-down."

I didn't close the door tightly. If necessary, I could still probe into his background. However, this person wasn't to my liking.

Seeing that I was in a hurry, he politely gestured. "That's settled, then. See you next time."

He seemed to be seizing an opportunity, but I didn't quite like it. Still, I smiled apologetically at him and got into the car.

I saw him standing in the rearview mirror, watching my car leave.
