Cheryl looked unterly bewildered . Donald was ell bety in the chin the watbud quer and anbe Dad ? They’re acting kind of weird , don’t you think
Donald replied , “ They’re perfectly fine , nothing’s going on between them . *
“ Oh really ? Maybe I’m just overthinking it then .”
“ Hey , how’s work treating you these days ? ” Donald deftly changed the subject , turning to Cheryl
“ Pretty good , ” Cheryl said . “ With the training allowance included , I’m making about six thousand a month
Donald smiled . “ You’re making great progress . Keep up the good work . Have you thought about opening an art studio painting , and it’s definitely worth considering . ”
“ Let me save up a bit more first , ” Cheryl said with a smile .
“ Donald ! ” Werner called out from the living room . “ Come join me for a drink . ”
Meanwhile , at Horizonlead Group . Just as Jonathan wrapped up his meeting , his housekeeper called with urgent news that Irene just Shaville .
Jonathan frowned . “ When did she leave ? ”
The housekeeper replied , “ She left this morning . ”
Jonathan replied calmly , “ Got it . ”
After hanging up , Jonathan sank into the sofa and rubbed his temples . Given Irene’s usual reluctance to travel far , he knew exactly who she had gone to Shaville to find .
Knowing Irene , she wouldn’t do anything extreme to someone on their deathbed . She was probably just trying to confirm if Liora had cancer .
Jonathan suspected frene was hiding more about her history with Liora and his father than she’d revealed .
Just then , Benny walked in . He handed Jonathan a document .
“ What’s this ? ” Jonathan took the file and began flipping through it .
“ Your aunt came to my law firm to ask about getting a divorce . ”
“ My aunt ? ”
“ Donald’s mom – Cathy . I was away on business for a few days , so I didn’t know about any of this . When I got back yesterday , my staff showed me the recent consultation cases , and that’s when I found out your uncle had been having an affair . ”

“ Cathy is preparing to file for divorce . And coincidentally , the lawyer she consulted is actually someone i personally trained
Jonathan’s face grew grim as he handed the file to Benny . “ Benny , as a top lawyer , showing me your client’s personat decaits , retinat a breach of confidentiality ? ”
“ Come on , these are Werner and Cathy we’re talking about . You wouldn’t really rat me out , would you ? My staff said Cathy’s been a total wreck . desperately searching for proof of Werner’s affair , but so far , she’s come up empty .”
Jonathan leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes wearily . “ By all accounts , Werner isn’t that kind of person . ”
But at that moment , even Jonathan couldn’t be so sure . Except for a select few he truly trusted , Jonathan no longer dared to claim he could see through
everyone .
Benny took a sip of the coffee on the table and said slowly , “ Werner has already started moving his assets . Honestly , it’s almost certain that Donald and little Cheryl have no idea about this . ”
Jonathan opened his eyes , picked up his cup , and took a sip of coffee . He said , “ Cheryl isn’t even married yet . Werner has always doted on her , and he wouldn’t go that far . ”
Benny smirked . “ Looks like Cheryl’s marriage prospects are ruined now , right ? ”
Jonathan snapped his head toward Benny . “ Why ? ”
