Chapter 746
The date for Matthew's trial had finally been set. During this time, Liora was in a frenzy, harboring even more intense resentment toward me. She created a public spectacle online, exposing Matthew's wrongdoings.
Public opinion was overwhelmingly against Matthew, and it seemed like his situation was getting worse.
I felt impatient and wanted to counterattack, but Atlas stopped me. Adrian was also present that day.
Atlas said to me, "Don't make any moves right now. Let her do whatever she wants. We won't suppress her. We'll just let her confidence grow."
"But she's becoming more audacious. She's saying all those things that even I'm starting to believe is true. Many people online have noticed too. If it goes on like this, won't Matthew be at a disadvantage? The public outcry is strong. If we get to the trial, can he still turn things around?" I said agitatedly.
"That's even better." Atlas said casually, "She'll be too confident."
I was puzzled. "Are we trying to make her feel like we're helpless?"
Adrian suddenly smiled. "Exactly. It's about creating that feeling. The law doesn't listen to the opinions of onlookers. It's based on evidence."
I was stunned for a moment, then immediately grasped the situation. I pointed at both of them and exclaimed, "You... You want to... make her overly confident?"
The two men exchanged a smile, and I suddenly understood what they were planning.
Liora was very pleased and had been openly recruiting and expanding her company. Strangely, I hadn't seen Melvern recently.
He was elusive; you never knew when he would suddenly appear, eerie and mysterious.
At the same time, the groundbreaking ceremony in Bourdamun was also imminent, and it almost coincided with Matthew's trial.
I was overwhelmed, but thankfully, Ryan finally returned to Foswood at this critical moment, even though he was two days later than expected. When he called me into the office and handed me a stack of documents, I was dumbfounded.
I thought that Ryan had disappeared

investigated some business, and what shocked me even more was that those findings were beyond my expectations.
When I handed over the information to Atlas that evening, he wasn't surprised. However, he commented, "This is different from what we've been investigating, but one thing is clear your parents from the Hartz family are not from Northum."
That revelation was difficult for me to accept The pulsating pain in my head, long absent, had returned.. desperately wanted to know who they were and how I had ended up in the Hartz family.
No, not the Hartz family. The data showed that my parents' family name was not Hartz.

I nodded, understanding Atlas's concern. That was the point that worried me. I
hoped to remember everything clearly from the past.
"And one more thing, Chlo. Don't tell anyone that you're slowly recovering your memory for now. You need to keep that a secret," he earnestly repeated.
I took him very seriously.

Cane was surprised to see us because we had nothing special scheduled for
today. Atlas calmly said to him, "Bring Anya and Loak over."
Cane immediately turned around to fetch them.
In no time, he returned with Anya and Loak. When I saw them, my eyes lit up,
and I could hardly believe what I was seeing.
