Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 228: Coltons planning to sue me? Allisons lips curled into a wry smile.

We settled everything when we divorced.

What could he possibly sue me for now? She was genuinely puzzled.

They had cleared up everything during the divorce proceedings, so why was Colton suddenly digging up old issues? Kellans voice was tinged with mockery.

He claims you transferred his assets during the divorceup to ten million dollars, apparently.

Colton and Melany could be unbelievably shortsighted at times.

With Allisons capabilities, ten million dollars was nothing.

If she wanted, raising billions to start her own company would be a breeze.

If she were truly after that kind of money, she wouldnt waste her time dealing with someone like Colton.

In fact, Kellan almost felt that Allison deserved that sum as compensation for the emotional trauma of ever being entangled with him.

Floyd let out an incredulous laugh.

Allison isnt that type of person.

How could they even think shed do something like that? Kellan nodded.

Sherman mentioned that Coltons subsidiary suffered significant losses, and you briefly held a position there for a few months.

Now hes pointing fingers, claiming you were setting up a disaster from the inside.

Allison was speechless.

He really is a complete fool.

She almost laughed out loud.

Instead of holding his senior executives accountable for the companys failures, Colton was incompetently shifting the blame onto others.
