Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 613 Lomen's Findings
"In fact, it isn't necessary to get Old Madam's approval. We just have to get hold of the treasure. Sophia can't recognize anyone anymore. So, this is our best chance. Finders keepers. Not many people know about the treasure, not even Madam Paige or Mr. Hudson. You just have to think of a way to get hold of the treasure. Then, who is it to say that you can't keep it as your own? Letty persuaded. She noticed that Liya was a little dejected, and her persuasion made Liya nod in agreement."
"You did well today, and I'm glad you came to me. How about this? You'll follow me, and I'll offer you benefits when I stand firm one day. Liya was delighted to get this information, hence she made an offer to Letty."
"Upon hearing this, Letty seemed overjoyed as well. She smiled widely and thanked her repeatedly."
"By the way, do you have any idea where the treasure is kept? Liya immediately asked as she thought of the question."
"I don't know about this, but I assume that it's with Sophia. It's with her all this while. So, it will only make sense if she keeps it near her place, Letty said after a round of thoughts."
"It should be at Sophia's place. Liya thought to herself. Wasn't that obvious? However, Letty was just a maid. Liya shouldn't expect her to know that. Thus, she said, "That's okay then. Just come to me if there's anything."""
"Sure, Mrs. Harvey, Letty called out affectionately before leaving with a smile."
"Miss Yates? I'm Letty, Letty found a quiet corner before making a phone call. She lowered her voice to a whisper and said, ""I've already told Liya about the treasure today. I think she'll make a move soon." "Great, Zoella said. She had been resting on her bed ever since her miscarriage. As soon as she received the news, she smiled sinisterly and said, ""Keep an eye on her from today onwards. Once she gets the treasure, do whatever you need to snatch it over, even if it means you have to kill her."""""
Rage built in her eyes. Zoella gritted her teeth in anger as she was reminded of the night she was schemed by Liya.
"Don't worry, Miss Yates. No one likes her in Harvey Manor. Even if I were to make my move on her in public, no one will stand up for her, Letty said with a smug look."
"Great. Zoella nodded and said, """You will be of her service before she gets the treasure. After all, she's the only one who can enter Sophia's bedroom."""""
Sure. I will have to hang up first. Someone else is coming. Letty hung up the phone in a hurry as she heard footsteps approaching.
"Zoella smiled sinisterly and made another call after pondering for a moment. """Libby, send someone to keep an eye on Liya whenever she's out. Let me know immediately if there's anything.""""
"After the two phone calls, it seemed as if the hatred Zoella had towards Liya finally lessened a little. She sighed as she shut her eyes."
"Meanwhile, Liya was in high spirits after learning about the 'Ocean Heart'. Before this, she was still finding ways to milk the benefits during her stay in Harvey Manor. She knew that her days were numbered, and she would have to leave without getting anything in return. However, now that she knew about the treasure, she wouldn't need Calvin anymore once she got hold of it. She could be rich on her own. Moreover, with Sophia's will backing her up, it was her right to get hold of the treasure."
"Thinking of that, Liya lay down happily in bed. Her mood improved, and she fell asleep without her realizing it. Recently, she seemed to like sleeping a lot and couldn't get enough sleep no matter what." "Later that night, Lomen returned to the Ink Garden, and he ran into Belle. """Lomen, where did Liya go today?"" Belle asked."
"Madam, Liya went to the salon during the day and had lunch at a French restaurant. She went shopping after that. It was a wild round of shopping. There wasn't anything odd, Lomen reported his findings in detail."
"Belle frowned. It was only in the morning when Liya told her that she needed money, and she made it sound like she was struggling financially. However, why was she spending lavishly then? Who gave her the money to do so?"
"By the way, Madam, Liya went to a seaside villa today, and she was driving a luxury car. I saw her returning to the villa as if she was the hosMaisyof the villa. I was dumbfounded. How could a woman like her own such things? Lomen gasped as he was suddenly reminded of his findings that day."
"Belle was puzzled too. If Liya owned that much assets, then why was she still trying so hard to get a place in Harvey Manor? Why did Liya put on such a pitiful act? Was she really that greedy? Did she really own all that stuff?"
"On top of that, Belle was also concerned about Liya's huge transformation when they finally met again."
"Lomen, please investigate what Liya did after leaving Harvey Manor and if she owned the villa and the car you mentioned. If yes, then who bought them for her? Like what she told me earlier, she hadn't been working for months and was not paid at all. Belle immediately gave out orders as she thought of these questions."
Lomen pondered for a while before nodding.
"After Lomen left, Belle was still not at ease. Everything about Liya was too weird. She was obviously lazy and penniless. So, how could she afford to own a villa?"
Hudson and Calvin had each given Liya a piece of expensive jewelry back at their wedding. Could it be that she sold the jewelry and got rich?
"Belle couldn't confirm that, and she didn't dare to make assumptions either. She could only wait for Lomen's investigation for the time being."
"The night was murmuring, leaving behind a sense of loneliness in the air."
It had been two days since Calvin left for Capital City. She wasn't aware of the situation over there. Calvin would only tell her the good news. She wouldn't get to know about the actual situation if she asked him.
"Now that every useful person in the Harvey family was already put to use, Belle couldn't get hold of his situation."
She sighed lightly and headed back to her bedroom with a heavy heart.
"It had been peaceful for Rosa in the past few days. However, without knowing why, General Perry stopped calling her to ask her to return. He also no longer brought up the marriage with Sergio anymore." "Rosa was once again back to her optimistic self. She was happy and carefree. However, with Liya wandering around in Harvey Manor, Rosa was annoyed at her sight. She had to find an opportunity to get rid of Liya. That was the only thing that irritated her recently."
Rosa couldn't understand Hudson's and Calvin's intention of allowing Liya to move into the Ink Garden. Were they trying to tarnish the reputation of the Ink Garden?
"Coming out of the shower, Rosa hummed a song while drying her hair with a towel. Her cheeks were flushed."
The old-fashioned chandelier lighted up the entire room with the blazing white light.
"After drying one side of her hair, Rosa started drying the other side."
It was at that moment that she let out a high-pitched scream. She looked up and saw a tall figure leaning by the door frame with his arms crossed and a faint smile on his face. "Who are you? Rosa shouted with her widened eyes.
Rosa, it's me," Martin replied with a lazy tone and a pursed smile."
"What are you doing here? Rosa asked. She blinked her eyes, and once she confirmed that it was indeed Martin, she was in a panic as she threw her towel away before covering her chest with her arms." "D*mn it. Rosa was wearing a lace skirt after coming out from a shower. She didn't even wear a bra inside. She did not expect a man to appear in her room. Moreover, his gaze was roaming all over her body."
That was too much.
Rosa hurriedly turned around and ran back to the bathroom with her heart pounding. She stared at her reflection in the stone mirror. She was actually blushing.
But why?
It had been so long since she felt so overwhelmed with those emotions. It took her a long while to calm down finally. She got changed and stayed inside for a little while more. This d*mn Martin. Had he left yet? She didn't want to go out and face him.
"Rosa, can you come out now? Martin said just as Rosa was contemplating whether or not she should head out."
Rosa's cheeks were even more flushed upon hearing that. It seemed as if Martin was standing outside the bathroom.
"Martin, how can you enter my bedroom like this? Rosa sounded slightly annoyed from inside the bathroom."
Martin was standing by the bathroom. The corner of his mouth twitched a little as he heard her words.
Am I not allowed to look for you for something? Martin sounded a little helpless. "Please come out already. I need to tell you something."
You can look for me tomorrow. Why did you have to break into my bedroom? Rosa asked with frustration as she opened the door to the bathroom.
"I have to tell you now, or else I'll forget about it by tomorrow. Martin smiled casually. It was as if he wasn't bothered by her frustration."
Rosa could only glare at him helplessly.
"Let me ask you, how did you get in here? You can't do this again, or else I'll tell Uncle Hudson."
"Martin shrugged his shoulders and spread out his hands. He said in an aggrieved tone, ""I got in through the door. I've called out to you so many times, but you didn't answer. So, I just pushed the door open."""
"Through the door? Rosa gasped. She remembered clearly that she locked the door, and it was an auto-lock. So, how did he open the door?"
"With that in mind, she glanced at Martin in doubt."
