NovelEnglish"When he invested in Liora, it was a probing move. Didn't I tell you? He cback for revenge this time, and I'm his target.
"Think about it. He needs to figure out everything about the people around me. He won't give up on any clues. The current situation between Liora andforces him to pay attention to her opponents. He's afraid I might have allies, especially someone like you." I found Atticus's words quite reasonable. "But one thing I can't figure out is how did he know we might have a connection?" "That's not hard to find out. After all, we have sapparent cooperation," Atticus said casually.
I chuckled. "True!" "Would you and your husband join us for dinner tonight?" Atticus suggested.
"No, I can't make it tonight. I have ssupplier issues that I can't delay. Another time, perhaps." I declined Atticus's invitation.
I didn't ask him how he found out about my relationship with Atlas. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said, "You and your husband." These people are all sharp-minded, especially Atticus.

"Yeah, all thanks to your wife's masterpiece." I didn't keep it from him.
"The project is underway and going well. It just started now. Everything is smooth," I replied calmly. "Are you giving up on the Rivendell deal?" "No, I'm not in a hurry. Let him enjoy his little victory," Atticus said, scheming.
"He hasn't sent over the project details yet. I think he won't easily trust anyone, especially us," I said, referring to Melvern.
"It's a matter of time. The later stage of the project in Operose can't deviate from what I'm doing now. So, he will have no choice but to turn to you guys," Atticus confidently stated. "Now you sound like an aloof expert. Watch your step," I teased him.
"I'm also waiting for Liora's final result. There's no rush. Let him stir things up. I'm taking a break and gathering strength. Once I'm rejuvenated and he has his designs and plans in place, what's wrong with enjoying my success?" He laughed contentedly.
"But I don't know the status of the court hearing application. I haven't had a chance to ask Adrian." I honestly admitted that I was feeling less guarded against Atticus now.
"Your call remindedof a clue," Atticus suddenly said.
"What?" I immediately perked up.
"Matthew doesn't know about the corner-cutting in Muborough. There's a powerful witness," Atticus said.
I was shocked and asked hastily, "Who?" "Arton Reese," Atticus answered without hesitation.
"Arton?" I was genuinely surprised. "How did you find out?" "Don't forget, I'm also part of this puzzle. After all, I exchanged Muborough's project for Rivendell's. That's where my roots lie," Atticus said mysteriously, proving he was a sly fox.

It seemed like Arton could indeed be an effective witness.
"Think of a way to persuade Arton t testify in court," Atticus suggested. in "Okay, I'll think about it." I felt a bit numb. After a few more words, I hung up the phone.
At this moment, I truly looked at om Atticus differently. He was indeed a cunning strategist, seemingly in Rivendell, but well aware of the situation in Foswood.
