Beyond the Divorce

Condemnation of a Painful Past I gazed at her calmly and responded.

“You should probably ask your brother that.” “What do you mean? Don’t try to play games with me,” Melanie retorted in frustration.

Johnson interjected and told me, “Ms. Chloe, calm down.” understood he was worried I might lose it and reveal too much information.

Still, would I need to sell him out to expose those two idiots? ‘I glanced at Johnson, then stepped forward to lock eyes with Melanie.

I questioned her, “Remember when I was alone at the airport on that rainy night? Wasn’t he sleeping with you on my bed? “When Ava was in the hospital with a high fever, he didn’t leave us a single cent but was having sex with you at a hotel in Operose.

Do you remember those photos you sent me, Melanie?” Melanie looked at me helplessly as her confidence faded, | sarcastically continued, “Perhaps you two have slept together too often that you’re unsure which pictures I’m referring to.

Is that it? To secure ATL Empire’s project for Tanum Corporation, I met with Mr.Atlas and recommended our company as their exclusive agent.

I “While I was trying to seal the deal, he bought you a new car, and you two couldn’t wait to drive to Operose, didn’t you? You asked what my relationship with Mr. Atlas was?” I turned to Matthew as I spoke, “Care to enlighten us, Matthew? What’s my relationship with Mr. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Atlas?” I confidently told everyone about my meetings with Atlas.

However, I omitted the fact that he had saved me many times.

Matthew raised his head, looking stunned.

“You knew everything?” I smiled bitterly at him and asked, “What do you think? Should I keep going?” Ivanna seized the opportunity to criticize him.

“You’re truly shameless.

I thought you were just having some flings or affairs with people you engage with during work.

I never expected you to stoop so low as to sleep with your sister.” Her words were harsh, but the Murphys could say nothing about it.

Ivanna continued, “What was I expecting anyway? She said you two had your first time at a bar, right? Did your dear sister drug you, too? How bizarre! No wonder Chlo suddenly lost so much weight, and I kept tell by her to see a doctor, it seems she was too disgusted by you two to eat.) +15 BONUS Ivanna’s words made me sadder as I said, “I wanted to ignore everything, especially since it was so disgraceful.

I could endure this humiliation alone, for Ava’s sake.

Although it made me sick, I consoled myself and tried to endure the filthy truth.

“I thought no one would discover your affairs if I didn’t make a scene.

I wasn’t afraid of you or tarnishing your family’s reputation.

I did everything for Ava.

She’s still a child, and I didn’t want people gossiping about her family’s disgraceful acts.” Tears rolled down my cheeks as I continued, “But you thought I was a fool.

It wasn’t enough for you to take everything from me, but you even told Melanie to drug me and get a group of men to rape me.

You’re heartless, Matthew.” “I didn’t do that!” Matthew protested.

“Don’t blame my brother! He had nothing to do with that.

I just wanted you out of my family! Melanie shouted at me.

Grace wailed in despair, “What a tragedy for our family! Y–You bastard!” I stared at Matthew’s parents, saying, “My dedication toward Tanum Corporation has never wavered since I founded it.

I considered your family my own and set aside my parents.

I even used the money they invested in the company to serve your family.

“Yet this is how you repay me? You live in the house I bought, yet you want to push me down and trample on my dignity? How dare you criticize me over your mistakes?” Meanwhile, Henry’s expression turned solemn as he bit his lip and glanced at his son.

I knew Henry wanted Matthew to defend him.

“Fine, you’ve always dreaded anyone mentioning the past.

You can forget all our hardships when we lived in cramped apartments and couldn’t afford decent clothing.

You can forget the days I scoured the streets of Foswood to save a few bucks.

1 refused to take cabs to buy you your first suit and make you look presentable.

You can also forget the ring you bought me from a street vendor when he got married, your vows, and what you told me when I was pregnant locked eyes with him and shouted, “You don’t want to hear any of that because you’re afraid! My voice echoed through the office, causing Johnson to flinch I You can forget everything but won’t, I lay everything before Matthew, saying 1 kept all this evidence f ve medical recordo, surveillance footage from the bar, and the necessary witnesses and material +15 BONUS “I’ve made preparations long ago, so you don’t need to take my phone away.

I’ll show them to you now.

If you destroy everything here, I’ll expose you to the city and make you pay for what you’ve done.” After taking a breath, I said, “I will defend my dignity, even if I have nothing left.

You may secure the contract with ATL Empire, but do you think they’ll want to work with you once they see the ugly truth? “Matthew, you have lost all morality.

As for your sister, she has an evil heart, and I will make sure she faces the consequences.” I glanced at Matthew again before walking away.

“Chloe, no!”
