Arnold was dismissive of my skepticism.
"The affair between that woman and Melvern isn't as big a feud as it seems. Just because he stole his wife? Nonsense. Melvern sees Liora as nothing more than a piece of clothing." Arnold seemed quite repulsed.
"Why is that? Atticus doesn't seem afraid of Melvern. But from what I see, there's a possibility that Atticus is right about Melvern coming back for revenge. Could it be because of this report from back then?" I questioned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"This incident was the main factor that led the Sunny family to leave Foswood." I had to admit that fact. Arnold looked atcalmly, then continued, "Atticus's greatest resentment was Liora's family forcing him into marrying her." "Forced?" I questioned this statement. "Why?" Arnold chuckled. "It's hard to believe that a distinguished CEO like Atticus was 'forced' to marry Liora, right?" I nodded. "Yeah!" "That's now. At that time, Atticus was just a small contractor, barely making a nfor himself." I nodded repeatedly. "That's true." "How do I put it? The situation here is especially complicated, involving too many people with connections. Especially the subsequent events, which made speople unforgettable for a lifetime, and Atticus is one of them." Arnold looked detached from the matter as he spoke.
He added, "They were all children from wealthy families and even shigh-ranking individuals. Just imagine that the mastermind behind this incident was Melvern. It was a period when he was having an affair with Liora, so you can imagine how Liora feels." "Grandma used to say that Liora was the root of all troubles. She can't be controlled." I repeated Rose's words to Arnold.
"There's another key point I haven't told you. Liora was the one who bought the girl who died." "Really?" I was surprised.
I couldn't help but think of Carina. Liora always enjoyed causing such trouble.
Arnold shook the coffee cup in his hand. "I want another cup. I didn't expect the coffee here to be so good!" I quickly rang the bell to have Carol pour more coffee.
"When Liora was able to date Melvern back then, it was something worth showing off, wasn't it?" "The Thompson family was quite something back then, huh?" I asked, still feeling that the Thompson family was a bit disreputable.
Arnold quickly shook his head. "At that time, Liora was just a daughter from an average family. So, being able to get close to Melvern was like striking gold.
"Those who flattered Liora, especially those vain girls, were not in short supply. Who wouldn't want to use this opportunity to enter the second-generation social circle of Foswood? Why do you think that is?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI naturally understood the reasoning behind it. Just like Carina, she m probably thought boarding the ship would double her value. But it turned would d into a nightmare, and she was sent back to her original state.
"And then?" I was getting engrossed in the story.
Carol poured another cup of coffee for Arnold. He took the coffee from Carol and thanked her.
Then he continued, "Liora couldn't escape the consequences after the incident. She was the one who most ferventi supported Melvern during that gathering." "Weren't there any disputes from the family of the girl who died?" I asked, puzzled. "Letspeak!" Arnold took another sip of coffee, intentionally keepingin suspense.
