My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL)
Chapter 793 Swift, Precise and Forceful

Arthur felt it was about time. He added, "I also question Ms. Peterson's ability in implementing this conspiracy. There must be someone behind this."

Claude sensed hope again and said, "Yes. She didn't dare to do this. She must be set up."

Arthur pretended to be in a dilemma, "But the evidence indicating it was Ms. Peterson. I have no choice but to targeting on Ms. Peterson. Ms. Peterson may not the person to plan all of this. But she definitely played a part in it."

Now Claude could see Arthur's purpose. Arthur from the beginning has never intended to forgive her daughter.

"What do you want? Please go straight to the point."

Arthur answered seriously, "Ms. Peterson can't stay in this city anymore. Or else my wife will be very unhappy."

Claude was irritated, "I only have one daughter. Who is going to care for me when I am old-"

Arthur didn't argue with him and stood up to leave, "Since you are not cooperative, I will have to disclose what your daughter did. And your good days as mayor will be over."

Arthur couldn't allow Judith to stay in this city. What if Judith wants to retaliate? The best solution was to send her to a foreign country. Out of sight, out of mind.

He didn't want to be ruthless. A cornered beast would do something desperate. He couldn't take the risk of him and Jean being the target of revenge.

But if Claude didn't agree to send away Judith, he wouldn't hesitate to unseat Claude.

"Wait!" Claude stopped him when he was about to step out. Reluctantly he said, "Give me some time. I will send her to another country."

Claude had no choice but to accept this request.

Separating from his daughter was hard, but at the moment it was the lesser of two evils. He had to put his job first.

"OK." Arthur freely struck a deal, "I will forget what happen between me and Ms. Peterson."

"Thanks..." Claude thanked him unwillingly.

Arthur added, "Don't you want to know who ask your daughter to do this?"

"Who it is?"

He must let the man pay the price for tricking his daughter into doing this.

"Mario," Arthur said his name.

Claude was shocked to hear his name. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's him!"

Mario is sort of famous in Zoshalor. Claude once put him on the list of the potential match for his daughter. But it was said that he had a close connection with Jean's father. Rumors about Jean's father trying to get two of them together were widespread.

"He set you up to spoil your marriage?" Mario's purpose was clear.

"Yes." Arthur handed him a file. "Inside are the accounts of his company. He is meticulous. In a normal situation, no one can detect the problems in his accounts. But I am not a normal person."

He was an expert in medicine, not law. But Ezra and Julian were business tycoons. Plus, he had Phil, one of the best lawyers in Zoshalor, who had seen a more prickly case.

Mario's tricks on the accounts were just a child's play for him.

The reason why Arthur handed these documents to Claude was that he was determined to give him a taste of his own medicine. Mario set him up by enticing Judith into seducing him. He could also retaliate against Mario by persuading Claude into destroying him.

Mario had the habit of hiding in the dark. He could also watch in the dark that his plan boomerangs himself. Claude took up the file and glanced through it. With all the problems being underlined, Claude knew his con. Claude sneered and then called the Economic Investigation Department to have Mario under investigation.

Arthur left with satisfaction as he achieved his aim.

Mario froze helplessly when the police of the Economic Investigation Department came to his office.

He thought he could stay immune to the consequence if Judith was made a scapegoat. It never occurred to him that Arthur could be this quick in investigating and taking action against him.

He was careful and meticulous enough in cooking the books. How can Arthur know what illegal things he did?

Mario didn't want to give in like this so he tried to exculpate himself in his fake smile. But the police ignored him and threw him a file, warning him with a solemn expression, "Mr. Bartels, don't play with us. We have all the evidence."

Mario opened that file and became frightened when he saw the content it.

One wrong decision led to a disastrous outcome. He became a criminal from a financial elite.

Arthur is a brutal man.

He couldn't believe this is the end. Arthur didn't even bother to tell him about that. He just informed against him and got him under arrest.

All Mario wanted was to split Jean and Arthur up. But he gains nothing and ruins his career in the end.

He knew that he wouldn't stay in prison for long. However, with his bad reputation, he was finished in the financial industry of Zoshalor.

Harold was shocked when he heard the news. After a while, he sat down, "What! He was taken by the police?"

"Yes. There is something wrong with his company accounts." Arthur answered while pouring the tea for Harold in a casual manner.

It took Harold a while to digest this news. How dangerous was that he hired Mario as the economic counselor before.

"You can't really know a person by his appearance." Harold had this feeling. And then he asked suspiciously, "It was you who put him in the jail?" Arthur told Harold how Mario set him up. Harold was crossly annoyed, "I didn't know he was such a jerk to come up with this sordid plan." "What happened if Jean wasn't able to pick you up in time? How will you handle it?"

If Arthur had sex with another woman...

Harold couldn't imagine the results.

It was he who invited the wolf into the house. If it weren't for him, Mario wouldn't have been stubborn like this and done this to Arthur.

Lucky was that nothing happened last night. Or else he is the originator of evil.

"This is my fault. I am terribly sorry about that." Harold regretted it deeply.

Arthur immediately soothed him, "You need to avoid emotional fluctuation."

"There is nothing to be sorry about. It was over." Arthur didn't blame it on him. At this moment, Harold couldn't be more content with his son-in-law.

But in the next second, Arthur said, "You were capable of apologizing to me and Jean. why not think about apologizing to aunt?"

Arthur hasn't spent much time with Jean's parents after they got married, so he still called them uncle and aunt.

Harold was not happy with that.

Now he was less satisfied with his son-in-law.
