Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 807

He walked in and said, "Chlo..."

He paused, noticing the guest in my office, but then continued walking in.

Melvern, who was seated on the sofa, glanced at him, smiling as he spoke, "So it's you, Mr. Arnold. Long time no see."

Arnold looked at him and smiled back. "Mr. Melvern! It's been a while. You're still alive?"

It was clear that they were very familiar with each other.

Arnold, with his usual lack of formality, asked Melvern, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to talk to Ms. Chloe about something," Melvern replied, maintaining a polite demeanor and shifting in his seat.

Arnold walked over confidently and took a seat on the sofa. He looked at Melvern and asked, "What business do you have with my sister? She's engaged in legitimate business, and you're a person of questionable integrity. What legitimate business could you discuss? Stop messing around."

I almost laughed when I heard what Arnold said. It looked like my younger brother was the true expert in straight talking.

"Don't bother with this guy, Chlo. He's unscrupulous and shameless. You'll get cheated sooner or later if you do business with him. Stay clean." Arnold looked at me earnestly, offering his advice. Before I could respond, Melvern said, "You don't need to worry. Ms. Chloe is very shrewd."

"That's right. You're a little scoundrel. If she's not clever, she'll be completely taken advantage of. Let me tell you this. Chloe is my sister and my father's precious little girl. You'd better not be getting any ideas about her, Melvern. Stop right now, or I'll make sure your dream of emigrating shatters in Foswood. Mark my words." Arnold's words were blunt, and almost made me feel a little embarrassed.

I looked at Melvern indifferently. His

facial expression was strained, but he seemed to be trying hard to remain composed. There was a faint smile on his face as he leaned back against the sofa, maintaining his original posture.

"You're bold, Mr. Arnold. You'll say just anything," Melvern said. "I didn't know about the deep connection between Ms. Chloe and the Beringer family. Looks like it's true."
