Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 847

Annika quickly grabbed the phone and exclaimed, "Dad... That’s Ms. Chloe's phone. What are you doing?"

Donovan seemed to realize he had gone too far and remembered that it was my phone. He sneaked a glance at me.

I observed the scene calmly and didn’t bother to offer any polite gestures or reassurances like “It's okay” or “It’s not a big deal.”

I watched them coldly as a detached spectator.

Annika kept apologizing to me.

"You don't need to apologize, Annika. I'll compensate her if the phone is broken. You don’t need to act like this in front of them!” Arton said protectively.

I didn’t know why, but his actions comforted me. It was clear that Arton genuinely cared for his sister and tried to protect her.

Arton looked displeased and glanced at me again. "Are you two the cause of this trouble? Explain it to me right now. Who are you two? Don't mention Melanie again. I don't know her."

I looked at Arton coldly. "I used to be Melanie's sister-in-law. Now do you know who I am?"

Sure enough, after I spoke, Arton paused for a moment and stared at me silently.

I smiled indifferently. "Do you remember now? Or are you still going to tell me you don’t know anything?"

"So what? What are you doing here at our house? If you have something to say, you could have talked to me directly. You didn’t have to come to my house and bother my parents. Just because you're a woman doesn't mean I won't punch you."

Carol grew anxious when she heard what Arton said. She looked at Arton fearlessly and stood up.

With a low laugh, she said, "Don't pretend you don't know your place, Arton. If it weren't for my boss, your son would still be homeless!”
