Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 734

He had a confident smile, holding me tighter. "Alright, our task now is to sleep. You're heading to Bourdamun tomorrow, right? The matters in Bourdamun are crucial. Other things can wait."

Without further ado, he lifted me and carried me into the bedroom, placing me on the bed. His hands rested on either side of me as he said, "Get some rest. I have a few things to handle. Sleep, and I'll be back in a moment."

I could only nod. I was genuinely exhausted.

He leaned down and greedily kissed my lips before straightening up, turning off the bedroom lights, and quietly exiting.

Watching him disappear from my sight, I felt a slight sense of loss. I wanted to spend the night with him.

I snuggled under the covers. I had to go to Bourdamun tomorrow, and a whole day of meetings awaited. The groundbreaking ceremony couldn't be neglected, especially considering its importance. There couldn't be any room for error.

I didn't know what was happening lately. I felt unusually tired.

Perhaps it was due to the drinks tonight, but I quickly drifted into dreamland.

However, an unexpected event the next day made me reconsider the importance of Matthew's situation.

The Bourdamun meeting went exceptionally smoothly. Thanks to Noah's efforts in dealing with Nelson and his cohorts, Bourdamun's situation flourished, and everyone was in high spirits. The morale was united.

Noah's work was progressing smoothly, and he was determined to turn this new city into a benchmark city, given higher-ups' increased focus and support.

The plan was to build the city according to the original layout, but with an expansion to create a thoroughly contemporary city.

This piece of good news exhilarated me. I hadn't expected Atticus's words to be true. It was a key development, indicating that the project I was working on would result in an entirely new metropolis, not just a new district in Bourdamun.

After the meeting, Noah suggested that we celebrate with dinner, but many matters were awaiting my attention back in Foswood.

With Ryan away and Carol accompanying me, I was anxious about the company's affairs. Besides, I had made plans with Adrian to discuss Matthew's case in the evening, and I couldn't afford to miss that.

So, I explained the situation to Noah and politely declined. However, we agreed to celebrate over dinner after the groundbreaking ceremony.
