Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard) novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182 Premarital Asset 

Leonard knew exactly which documents I was referring to. Since we already had evidence of their crimes, it was best to push for their conviction as soon as possible. 

I had seen countless stories about corrupt officials and business collusions. If we didn’t take them by surprise, they’d bounce back in no time. 

After ending the call, I left the hospital with Rivaella. 

“Eva, is something bothering you? Is your uncle giving you trouble again?” She tugged at my sleeve. Her eyes were filled with worry. 

I shook my head, unsure of how to explain it to her. I just hoped to get everything settled quickly, so I could take Rivaella back and let her live happily ever after with Randall. 

Seeing my reluctance to explain, she led me to a food stall. “It has been a long time since we’ve had a meal together. Do you remember how you used to love barbecues, and every time you. ate barbecued meat, you’d get an upset stomach? 

I was stunned for a second before laughing along with her. 

My mom never let me eat at food stalls before, but Rivaella would secretly take me there. Especially when she got into high school and had more money, she’d insist on treating me. She always said it wasn’t right to keep eating on my dime, and that she had to treat me back so I wouldn’t bring it up later. 

Unfortunately, my stomach couldn’t handle it. I always ended up with an upset stomach all night after eating. 

Watching people come and go at the food stall, I shook my head. “I heard they add antidiarrheal drugs to the food these days.” 

“Isn’t that perfect? You don’t have to worry about diarrhea anymore. Hurry up, or there won’t be any seats left.” She kept smiling and chatted away, clearly trying to distract me from my 

worries 

I gradually stopped dwelling on those annoying issues. I had done what I could. The rest was up to whether justice would prevail. 

Just as we settled in, the fake Randall’s call came in again. 

While Rivaella was ordering, I quietly moved to the corner. 

“Randall, what’s up?” 

“I’m heading to Melgrove to meet you soon Besides the secret key, is there anything else I need to bring?” 

“You have to come in person. Isn’t it an iris scan for the unlock?”

I didn’t really know how it worked, so I just said what I’d seen in the movi 

The person on the line seemed a bit hesitant but didn’t probe further. He asked me a lot of indirect questions about the fund, especially its current valuation. 

I got impatient and retorted, “Didn’t I already say it’s 100 million? I don’t know the exact conversion, plus the fund should have gained interest. You’re the accountant, right? Why are you asking me?”
