Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 827

I couldn't help but chuckle. I looked at her as I asked, "So you're saying Stella did that all by herself? Didn't you recruit plenty of accomplices? If you’re trying to say that it was Stella, you're an accomplice too!"

Her mouth twitched. "You—"

"And that dump truck? Do you really think it won't be traced? Don't forget, the heavens are always watching. Also..."

I locked eyes with her, making it impossible for her to look away.

"Do you want me to keep going? You came to talk, didn't you, Liora?" I cooled down my expression, leaving her no room for thought.

I narrowed my eyes and probed, "Oh, maybe you don't know this, but Melvern has already placed Ardora's shares on my desk. Didn't you discuss this with him?"

"What?" Liora looked at me in shock, a sinister hostility in her eyes.

She clearly had no idea what Melvern had done. It seemed like it was all a coincidence.

I backed off from the topic of Melvern and tried to pressure her instead. "You've squandered so much of his money, so you must owe him an explanation. Think about how he'll deal with you if Ardora doesn't end up in his hands."

I smiled at her and watched her face turn pale.

"But don't forget, Ardora isn't yours. You can't take what isn't yours, even with your cunning ways. What you did in the dark will eventually come to light," I added, stoking the fire.

"So what on earth gave you the confidence to come to me for money? I'm not your mom! There's no reason for me to support you," I said disdainfully with a touch of wickedness in my tone.

Liora erupted. She stood up abruptly, grabbed the tea cup from the table, and flung it at me.

I was ready for her and dodged aside. The water splashed along my shoulder and a few drops landed on my face. However, it was meaningless.
