Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 899

He contemplated for a moment, but before he could respond, a call from Ardie came in, informing me that he was on his way to pick me up.

With that, Fred and I had to conclude our conversation. We walked out of the coffee shop together, and he extended his hand toward me, his tone now more affirmative. "I'll make the arrangements and visit Foswood soon. We can talk more then."

"Great, I'll be waiting for you in Foswood. We were kind of in a rush today," I responded.

As we came downstairs, Ardie arrived.

I asked Grayson to bring down my bag and told him to investigate Fred's situation thoroughly. After all, this issue with the windows was significant. I couldn't afford to overlook any hidden dangers with Urban Builders; otherwise, everything could be compromised, posing a danger to the project.

I secretly felt fortunate that I met Fred today, which had allowed me to discover the ongoing internal struggle within his company that had not yet subsided.

In the car, Ardie said, "Arnold will call you in a while. He’s found out that you're in Solaris."

Like clockwork, my phone rang as Ardie finished speaking, and it was Arnold.

I chuckled and showed Ardie my phone, "Look at him. He’s probably getting all anxious."

"Exactly. He wants to know how long you'll be staying,” Ardie replied with a smile. "Answer it quickly."

I promptly answered the call, and Arnold's voice came through. "Hey, how did you end up in Solaris?

"Just wait for me. After I go back to the country. I'll take you to Solaris again. I'll make sure you eat and explore everything. Ardie’s an old-fashioned guy, all constrained by the system. If I had known you were going to Solaris, I would have stayed longer," He rambled on incessantly.

I had no chance to interrupt.

"I'm here for work, not to play," I laughed, cutting him off.

He interrupted me immediately. "Stop… You shouldn’t always focus on work. That’s so annoying. Why does a pretty young lady like you only think about work? Don't let my brother and Atlas corrupt you. Don’t you know the importance of balancing work and leisure? If you want to be efficient at work, you need to let loose. It's the truth."

He insisted, "Besides, you work in Foswood, and you're still working in Solaris too. Why don't you say you work even when you're sleeping?"
