Chapter 664
Well, indeed. Although Jared didn’t show up on the day of his engagement, but there was no news about him calling
off the engagement later.
However, rumors were swirling that Cilian was extremely furious about it.
Presumably, Jared’s appearance today was to pacify Cilian.
Jared didn’t find it strange at all when he saw Agnes and Ryder together.
On the contrary, Agnes felt Jared’s gaze on her was somewhat peculiar.
As if he could see through everything.
The study of the Thomas family was more like a massive conference room.
The two sons of the Thomas family were sitting on the couch, their eyes full of anticipation for the drama about to

Cilian was seated on a leather chair behind the desk. Berlin and Laura stood in front of the table.
Cilian spoke up, “What exactly happened? How did things turn into this?”
Berlin was enraged, “Cilian, this damn woman wants to kill me, I want a divorce.”
“Divorce is a small matter, but attempting to harm someone is a big deal, we need to investigate thoroughly.”
Laura spoke, “Cilian, I am being framed, I swear, I didn’t do this. Someone is deliberately trying to set me up. You
must investigate this and clear my name.”
As she said this, Laura glanced at Agnes standing by.
Berlin was insistent, “You still won’t admit it, who else could it be but you? You cheated on me first, and when I
found out, you tried to kill me, just like…”
At this point, Berlin stopped himself.
Just like what she did to Preston back then.
But he was also involved in that incident with Preston, so he couldn’t expose it.
Laura was surprisingly calm on the side.
Even if Berlin was stupid, he wouldn’t bring up what happened in the past.
Berlin didn’t seem to want to explain too much.
Every time he thought of the scene when the car was out of control, he felt a chill down his spine.
He had always lived a carefree life, enjoyed every moment.
Never had he been so close to death.
He couldn’t possibly keep such a malicious woman by his side.
“Brother, I don’t want to talk about other things. Regardless of whether she’s involved in this or not, I want a
divorce. And I want her to leave empty–handed. The assets of the Thomas family cannot be taken by her.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBeatrice was very angry on the side.
She was also clear that Laura had cheated on Berlin, their marriage was definitely over.
But Berlin actually wanted her to leave empty–handed?
These years, Berlin’s business was basically managed by Laura. Besides partying and squandering money, what
else could Berlin do?
He had always been like a parasite clinging to Cilian, and now he relied on Laura for everything. Now that he had
crossed the river, he wanted to break the bridge and force them to leave empty–handed.
Beatrice spoke up, “My mom has been managing the business of the Thomas family for you these years. She
worked so hard. You can’t treat us like this. Besides, dad has no evidence to prove that mom tampered with the car
to harm him. I think dad is just bewitched by someone and wants to divorce and remarry. Dad is not young
anymore, and his friends are either second–rate models or nightclub girls. Uncle, can you really stand the idea of
dad marrying a wife younger than Valeria, making the Thomas family a laughing stock?”
Berlin sneered at Laura, “You indeed raised a sharp–tongued daughter. But no matter what you say, it’s useless.
When you divorced Preston, you left empty–handed. Don’t think you can take advantage of me. Laura, you and
your daughter don’t deserve anything from my family!”
