Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 64

With eager eyes, I looked at Logan, saying impatiently, "But I don't have someone for this job."

"Anyone close to you is out of the question, it has to be a fresh face. Think about it, they will surely do a thorough investigation before letting anyone get close to their inner circle. I'll take care of this!" Logan willingly took on the responsibility.

He continued, "We need someone on the inside, right next to Jesper. Because Jesper hasn't achieved much; he's desperate for a loyal confidant to secure his position. He must be dying for some help right now!"

"Ah, just what I was thinking!" I said genuinely, "Thank you, Logan!"

Honestly, I'm starting to really appreciate Logan. Aside from his sharp tongue, he's genuinely helpful. I turned to Catherine and asked, "Catherine, have you found a lawyer for me?"

"Of course!" Catherine exchanged a glance with Logan, "When do you need him?"

"As soon as you've arranged it, I need some legal advice!" I simply stated.

"On what?" Logan looked at me intently, probing further.

I didn't want to reveal it, but Logan's persistent questioning made me blurt out, "Divorce!"

Upon hearing my answer, Logan immediately said, "You can't divorce him now. Do you really need a lawyer to tell you that? First, if Jaylan still thinks he can get more money from you, he won't agree to a divorce that easily.

Secondly, a divorce now would not benefit you in any way. You may end up losing everything, your wealth, house, even your children…" Logan tried to dissuade me, "Why would you want to leave with nothing?"

"She won't!" Catherine chimed in immediately, "Why should she? Did you know Medsafe Liyah Inc. was practically built from the ground up by the Wilburn family? It's almost like the Wilburns moved their entire enterprise from Silverdale City to Goldenvale Town. I know that Galen invested all his money into Goldenvale. Now that it's in Jaylan's hands, he's reaping all the benefits. But what about the Wilburns?"

I felt a mist in my eyes, "It's all because of my incompetence. I was blind and foolish!"

"You're smart in everything else, but not so much when it comes to a man!" Logan added, causing Catherine and me to burst into laughter.

"Oh, right! I forgot to ask you something." I almost forgot about the man Zora had met, "Logan, did you find a man named Maddox when you were investigating Zora?"

"Maddox? Yes, I believe he was Zora's classmate, always stood up for her. Anyone who bullied Zora, he would fight them for her. Back then, Zora was very isolated, everyone called her a bastard. But after Zora left home, she stopped contacting him that much."

"Look into this Maddox, I suspect he's up to no good with Zora!" I then shared what had happened earlier with Logan and Catherine.

Logan immediately became alert, looking at me, "I'll look into it right away!"

He then got up to leave, but stopped at the door and turned back to me, saying with a deep meaning, "I'll find you a lawyer!"
