Just as I was about to step inside, a shout came from behind, "Hey, you heartless woman! Didn''t you see me?"


    I quickly turned around, and that nce was more than enough to surprise me. Her belly was much bigger now!


    In the past month, it seemed like she has been eating well, making her gain a little weight and looking a little rounder.


    Dressed in the maternity dress I bought for her, she had her hair tied up in a bun. Now she truly portrayed the image of a gentle expectant mother.


    Seeing her rushing toward me, Jared quickly followed and cautioned, "Take it easy! Watch your steps."


    Ivanna hugged me as soon as she reached me. "I missed you so much. You just left without a word, taking Lauren with you. That worried me. I almost went to Gerby. If you didn''te back, I might have actually gone." I believed her words. After all, Beatrice was our ssmate.


    I pulled away from her and examined her. "You''ve really changed a lot. Are you still doing the show?"


    I deliberately asked this question, and I was sure that the show business was probably off.


    "Nonsense. It feels like people are scrutinizing me like a criminal. I can''t do this, I can''t do that. I don''t even know what''s eptable anymore. It''s as if others haven''t given birth before," Ivanna yfullyined.


    I disdainfully looked at her. "Isn''t this what you wanted? If people don''t pay attention to yourints, you feel upset. Now that they are paying attention, you''re still not satisfied. What exactly do you want?" Ivanna rolled her eyes at me, then nced at Jared. "Did he bribe you?"


    I casually replied, "All I have is money."


    At that moment, Oliver also arrived. After getting out of the car, he gave some instructions to the driver and walked toward us. However, today he gave me a slightly different feeling.


    Among our group, Oliver was the oldest, but today he had dressed handsomely and elegantly. Perhaps he was in a good mood. He appeared much younger and more spirited than before. With his arrival, Jared immediately said, "Let''s go inside."


    The rest of us walked in together, with Jared and Oliver chatting behind us. Ivanna and I continued chatting in front.


    When we reached the private room, Ivanna began discussing Liora''s situation. Jared looked at me and said, "ording to my investigation, the ones who helped Liora are not from Foswood." "They''re outsiders?" I was a bit surprised.


    "Yes, those people seem to be from the Bermuda."


    "The Bermuda?" This was even more unexpected.


    At that moment, Lauren walked in. I noticed she had trimmed her hair and changed her hairstyle, looking very beautiful.


    I saw Oliver''s eyes immediately light up. I couldn''t understand what was going on between these two.


    She had tidied up her hair beautifully


    and gracefully, while the other one


    had looked more mature. It was a typical case of mutual admiration. Yet, the way they looked at each other was as if they had been arch nemesis for decades.


    I nced at Ivanna, and she raised her eyebrows. I smiled knowingly.


    Now, only As was left. He must be very busy today, as he waste even though he was the closest to this ce.


    I didn''t say anything and continued asking Jared, "How could Liora have a connection with people from the Bermuda?"


    "Don''t forget, she has someone behind her. Melvern, right?" Jared said, "As soon as the case of Matthew closed, he smelled danger and ran away."


    I pped the table, "Right, Ipletely forgot about this. I haven''t seen him for so long. But being able to escape in such a crowded situation must have been the oue of a meticulous n."


    "Perhaps Melvern hired many people


    to participate in Eugene''s funeral,This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    then used them as a cover to divert attention When people realized, it не was already toote. It''s said that many people attended Eugene''s funeral that day, and the Thompson family certainly doesn''t have such poprity."


    Jared''s analysis resonated with me.


    "Things out of the ordinary must have a cause. But there is one thing. Melvern rescuing Liora must have a purpose. What is his purpose?" I murmured to myself.


    Then I looked at Jared and asked, "Could it be that it was rted to the case in the beginning?"


    Jared shook his head. "This matter


    exposed most of the things they did


    де


    in the past. For those who died because of Liora, we have most the information we need by now. It seems to be unrted to the case from before, and they''re probably not targeting Atticus anymore."


    "Are they targeting me then?"
