Chapter 668 Berlin lit another cigarette, âAll this trouble is because of you, Laura. I thought I had found a gem when I married you, but you turned out to be my bad luck charm.â âBerlin, you need to face the facts. How many times have I saved you in the Thomas family? Without me, do you think you would have achieved anything in your career?â
Berlin retorted furiously, âLaura, everyone in the Capital knows that youâve been unfaithful. I am done being the laughing stock. I want a divorce.â
âIf you want a divorce, fine, but donât expect me to leave with nothing.â
âLaura, all this talk, and it all comes down to my wealth.â
âBerlin, our time has come to an end. I wonât claim anything thatâs rightfully yours, but the two antique shops that Iâve built these past years are my lifeâs work. Give me those, and I wonât ask for anything else.â
Berlin laughed coldly, âDo you think I donât know the antique shops are the most profitable businesses in the last two years? You want to keep them all to yourself, dream on.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
âLaura, I donât want to argue with you, but donât forget we still have a common enemy. That girl is Jaredâs exâwife, and itâs clear he still has feelings for her. And now sheâs Ryderâs fiancée. What if she uses the power of the Whitfield and Thomas families against you? You think you can handle it on your own? Besides, weâre in this together, Berlin. If I fall; I might just spill all our secrets. Remember, it was you who had Vernon mess with Prestonâs car. If this comes to light, Iâll be accused of instigation at most. Youâre the one guilty of intentional murder.â
âLaura, youâre a wicked woman.â
Laura, tapping her manicured nails, replied, âBerlin, you need to give me something to hold onto. Otherwise, how canâl.stand against that girl?â
Much to her surprise, Agnes found out that Laura and Berlin were getting a peaceful divorce.
And Laura was to be the owner of the two antique shops under the Thomas family name.
Agnes didnât know what Laura and Berlin had discussed, but she had to admit, Laura was a force to be reckoned with.
Agnes thought Berlinâs anger would at least leave Laura penniless, but she underestimated Laura.
Agnes was left with a bitter taste in her mouth.
As she and Ryder left, Laura called out to her, âAgnes, why donât you stop by my antique shop tomorrow? If you see something you like, consider it a gift from me.â
Agnes managed a smile, âThank you, Laura. Iâll make sure to come.â.
Suddenly, Laura grabbed Agnesâ arm, leaning in to whisper, âAgnes, you donât stand a chance against me.â
Laura let go and stepped back, saying, âTake care on your way.â
Agnes clenched her fist. How could this wicked woman escape karma?
Agnes had failed to strike her down, and now Laura was on high alert. It would be hard to catch her off guard again.
Ryder took Agnesâ clenched fist in his own, âIâll accompany you tomorrow, Agnes.â
