After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 731 Run away

Erik asked the woman, and the woman replied, "Do I need a reason to make someone miserable?" 1/5

Yeah, she indeed didn't need any reason, but James and Michael still thought there must be a reason.

Erik chuckled. "You have no grudge against Chloe, yet you tried to harm her, risking breaking the law. Do you expect me to believe you?"

No one would believe it.

"I don't think I need to explain why I want to hurt her," the woman responded.

Erik nodded. "You don't have to, but I want your explanation now. If you don't tell me, I will expose the deal between us."

Erik didn't want to waste any more time and just wanted to get the matter over with quickly.noveldrama

The woman pressed her lips, and her face became serious.

"Or, tell me what happened between you and Chloe, and where you met," said Erik.

He was trying to coax the woman into revealing the specific

reason.

But the woman refused to tell, just frowned and looked at Erik.

James and Michael sensed that something was amiss. The longer they waited, the more certain they became that this woman wasn't Erik's employer.

"There's something off about her identity. Test her," Michael instructed Erik.

Erik also felt that there was something wrong with the woman.

He handed her his phone and said, "Record a message in my phone, saying that I have a business deal I want to discuss with you."

Though confused, the woman complied with Erik's request because he had leverage over her.

She recorded the sentence and returned the phone to him.

Upon listening to the recording, Erik furrowed his brow and listened to it again.

"You're not the one I made a deal with," he declared.

James and Michael, sitting in the car, were both taken aback by

Erik's words.

Although they had suspected it, hearing Erik say it out loud surprised them.

"You have a different way of speaking compared to the person I made the deal with. She unconsciously raises the last note of her words, but you don't," Erik explained.

Erik was able to hear it so quickly because he had heard this sentence over and over again.

"I want to make a deal with you," that person once said to him.

It was this sentence that led Erik to the wrong path.

He remembered all the syllables of this sentence clearly, engraving it deeply into his memory.

Even if the other person used a voice changer, subconscious language habits couldn't be changed.

The voice changers they used could only modify basic elements, not underlying habits.

The woman didn't seem to expect that Erik would recognize that she was not that person.

Before she could react, James and Michael were already standing in front of her, blocking her path. "Thinking of running?" Michael asked.

Fear filled the woman's face as she stammered, "I... I don't know anything. She asked me to come over and talk for a bit. I truly don't know anything!"

Michael frowned. "Who is she?"

The woman shook her head. "I have no idea. We just met on the street. She gave me some money and asked me to help her meet someone. She taught me a few phrases, but I really don't know anything else."

The woman appeared genuinely scared, regretting her greed for

money.

Hearing her words, James and Michael seemed to believe that she wasn't lying. James immediately took out his phone and messaged the mastermind behind the scenes: [You lied to me? Aren't you afraid that I will expose all your secrets?]

The message had been successfully sent, but there was no response from the other party. They didn't know if she had seen it or not.

Taking advantage of the distraction caused by James and Michael looking at their phones, the woman swiftly bent down and ran away, disappearing within moments.

Erik sat quietly, saying nothing.

He gently placed his hands on his wheelchair, using them to support himself as he stood up from the chair.

Before either James or Michael realized what was happening, Erik turned and ran in the opposite direction.

"Damn it!" Michael exclaimed in frustration.
