Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 861

I boldly voiced my speculation. "Don't tell me you guys orchestrated Melanie's escape?"

Atlas immediately shook his head. "No, but we did leverage the relationship between Liora and Felix, that's for sure."

I stared at Atlas, dumbfounded. He was overly modest if this was not their deal.

"How did you pull it off?" I asked, incredulous, while munching on food.

A hint of tenderness glinted in Atlas's eyes as he smiled.

"I had Liora and Felix's relationship thoroughly investigated by Grayson long ago. It wasn't part of our arrangement, but we used their connection."

Suddenly, I remembered Grayson mentioning it to me.

"Grayson told me that he had checked in on Felix and Liora. Was it because of Melanie's confession? I said I'd have a good chat with Grayson tonight."

"I had investigated Melanie's confession because Liora always acted like she had insider information. I looked into it, and sure enough, information came from inside."

"You noticed Liora's behavior back then?" I was truly amazed at Atlas's sharpness.

I had to admit it, my admiration for him was growing more profound.

Atlas sat at the table lazily, gazing at my face with satisfaction. Such a sight made him even more captivating, almost mesmerizing.

He continued, "In recent years, Liora made a fortune by extorting money from the inmates, especially those involved in economic crimes. They didn't lack money but wanted to cause trouble. Liora became the bridge. It was a lucrative business for her."

I nodded in acknowledgment. "I respect this woman. Her thought process is definitely on a different level. No wonder Melanie was completely under her control."

"But this time, Liora lost her composure. Why?" I was a bit puzzled.

"This time, Liora sensed a danger, and the pressure came from Melvern." Atlas spoke casually as if everything was within his strategic plan.

"Melvern?" I was surprised.

"Yes, when Melvern returned to the city, he felt something was off. Before his return, he had already prepared to take revenge against Atticus."

"I know about this. Melvern returned to the city mainly for revenge against Atticus." I looked at Atlas, telling him, "Atticus told me about it himself!"

"But when Melvern returned to the city, he sensed that the information he had received didn't quite match the actual situation. So, he stopped supplying Liora with information."

Atlas's words were an eye-opener, and suddenly, everything made sense. That explained why Liora took matters into her own hands.
