Chapter 1602 Megan Has Been Having an Affair
When he picked up, a middle-aged woman's voice came through, "Landon, when should I tell Michael about this?"
"The day after tomorrow morning."
There was a moment of hesitation on the other end, "Then you have to protect me. Once Megan finds out I betrayed her, with her terrible temper, she..."
"Don't worry, since I promised you, and I've given you so many benefits, once it's done, it'll be enough for your family to live comfortably for a lifetime."
"Thank you, Landon."
After the divorce, Michael quickly had his things moved out and relocated to an apartment near his company.
Two days later, a divorce decree was delivered to him.
The lawyer said, "The paperwork is done. As for the house and other related procedures, I'm already handling them, but the approval will take some time."
Michael looked at the divorce decree in his hand, feeling complicated.
In just a few months, he had received two divorce decrees.
He said bitterly, "Do you think people see me as a joke, getting divorced and married like it's a farce?"
The lawyer, Valentin Dobbins, was silent for a moment before changing the subject, "Mr. Jude, since everything is settled, I should be leaving."
"Send the other divorce decree to Megan."
"Okay."
Shortly after Valentin left, the doorbell rang again.
Michael opened the door to find the butler and Vivienne standing outside, trembling.
Michael thought they were worried about their jobs and said, "Have you decided whether to stay or leave? Let me be clear, I no longer have a villa in Whisperlyn City. If you stay, I can only recommend you for work elsewhere."
"Mr. Jude, we have something else to discuss."
The butler, Aubrey Hagen, suddenly pulled Vivienne, "You spill it."
Vivienne nervously wrung her hands, her face pale.
Seeing Vivienne's fearful expression, Michael asked suspiciously, "What's going on?"
"Fine, if you won't say it, I will." Aubrey steeled himself and said, "Mr. Jude, since you've been away, Megan has been going out a lot, sometimes not coming back until ten at night."
"You told me before that she was in a bad mood, and since I wasn't home, it was normal for her to go out for a walk." Michael didn't want to talk about Megan anymore, given they were already divorced.
"Mr. Jude, I thought the same before." Aubrey gritted his teeth and said, "But today I heard from Vivienne that Megan has been having an affair with another man."
After he finished speaking, Michael's handsome face visibly turned cold.
The room's temperature seemed to drop suddenly, and Vivienne, scared, fell to her knees, "Mr. Jude, I'm sorry, I was momentarily blinded by greed. Megan bribed me with money, and that man bought a house for my son in Whisperlyn City and gave me money. That's why I helped her keep it a secret."
Vivienne started crying, "It wasn't until I saw you suddenly getting divorced and giving Megan so much money that I felt guilty and told Aubrey."
Michael couldn't listen anymore.
He yanked Vivienne up from the ground, his eyes menacing, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
What man? What son? What bribe?
Michael couldn't believe it.
Megan loved him so much. Would she betray their marriage?
"I'm not lying." Vivienne said timidly, "If you don't believe me, you can check. That man is staying in the presidential suite at The Grand Hotel. I only know his last name is Wells. Megan has been going there frequently, staying for hours each time. I've even seen the staff deliver condoms to the room."
Michael couldn't listen anymore and roughly pushed Vivienne away.
Vivienne fell to the ground, her whole body aching, but the physical pain was nothing compared to the fear of Michael's gaze.
But at this point, she had no way out. She had taken Landon's money and had to see this through.
"I'm sorry." Vivienne cried, "I wanted to tell you earlier, but Megan threatened me. She said I was just a small servant, and if I dared to tell you the truth, she would make sure my family couldn't survive in Whisperlyn City. She said you had loved her for over ten years and wouldn't believe me anyway. Plus, that man isn't simple either. They used both threats and bribes, and I got scared."
Vivienne's words were like a hammer, hammering at Michael's temples.
He held his head, in pain, a pain that made it hard to breathe.
In his heart, Megan had always been a gentle and understanding woman. Even when she later mistreated animals, it was only because she had been hurt by the outside world and developed depression.
But to betray their marriage and threaten Vivienne?
Michael still found it hard to believe.
"Is everything you said true?" He gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice.
"I swear, I'm not lying." Vivienne trembled, "I even heard Megan talking to that man yesterday. She said she was already handling the divorce procedures with you and would go to Avaloria with him once it was done. She even asked if he was willing to marry her."
"Avaloria?" Michael's eyes turned cold, "Didn't she say she was going to Austin?"
"I don't know, but I heard her say Avaloria." Vivienne said, trembling, not daring to look at Michael.
Michael didn't ask any more questions.
He wasn't stupid. If what Vivienne said was true, Megan had been deceiving him from the start.
The divorce wasn't to stop wasting each other's time and leave some good memories.
It was all a lie. She had found someone else and wanted to kick him out.
But after knowing her for over ten years, he still couldn't believe Megan was that kind of person.
"You can go now, go back to the villa, and don't let Megan know you came to see me. I'll investigate this matter. If I find out you're lying..."
Michael paused, giving Vivienne a cold look.
Vivienne nodded, knowing she was telling the truth.
After they left, Michael quickly called Blake, "Find someone to check the presidential suite at The Grand Hotel. See who is staying there and if Megan has been there recently. Check all the videos."
After hanging up, Michael sat on the sofa, unable to calm down.
Vivienne was someone he had personally hired. If she didn't have evidence, she wouldn't come to him with baseless rumors.
