Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 939

After I bade them farewell, Arton saw me out. I thanked him once again.

He looked at me and asked, "Who was that girl?"

"She’s from the Terrell family in Bourdamun. When trouble struck her family, she pinned the blame on me." I said. "She was no one important, so I didn't investigate her and just let her be.”

"Well..." Arton hesitated and looked at me.

I was sure he wanted to ask about Melanie.

I waited for him to speak.

“About Melanie… Do you have any news from her?" He couldn't hold back.

"No." I shook my head. "They haven’t caught her. She probably won't dare show her face so easily."

He nodded, smiling awkwardly. "Is she in prison because of the Thompson family?”

I pondered for a moment before speaking, "It was because of the death of Matthew’s mother. I was the one who sent her in."

Arton raised his brows.

I smiled at him and asked, "Are you surprised?”

I recounted what happened to Arton without leaving anything out. Then, I went over the current situation, detailing how Liora had used this incident to gain control of Ardora and the plot to compete for the company.

He listened attentively, and I shared the crucial points of Matthew’s case, but didn't mention asking him to testify in court.

He nodded as he listened, but didn't ask many questions. He also didn't say why he was asking about this.

I didn't feel it was appropriate to press for more information, so I took my leave.

As the car left the Reese family's neighborhood, I contemplated the situation and headed straight to Adrian's law firm.

I wanted to inquire about the progress of the case. The online discussion about this had been incessant, and I assumed that was why Arton had asked me about it today.
