I looked at Atlas with concern and said, “Matthew’s petty, so be careful of his retaliation.”

"You're overthinking it," Atlas replied, gesturing for me to return to the emergency room.

When we arrived, my mom asked, “Where’s that scumbag?”

"Gone!" I replied.

The emergency room lights had been on for two hours before they finally went out. A doctor emerged and informed us, "Your dad’s life isn’t in danger anymore, thanks to the timely arrival. However, you must ensure he doesn't get too agitated."

The doctor’s words put us at ease.

After exchanging a few words with the doctor, Atlas instructed me, “Hide this from all outsiders, and just say he hasn’t woken up yet.”

Then, he got my dad a VIP ward and asked my mom to stay with him. That would make others think my dad hadn’t awakened yet, effectively stopping the Murphys from visiting.

My dad wore an oxygen mask when the nurses moved him to his room. He was pale and in a pretty poor condition. Tears welled in his eyes as he looked

    It got harder for me to breathe, and my eyes widened. My will to survive made me claw at his hands, gripping my throat. Our love for each other had vanished, and the man before wanted to kill me.My vision blurred as I suffocated. Matthew threw me aside like a ragdoll as I was about to lose consciousness. Soon, I crashed into the corridor wall and almost blacked out.I clutched my throat and coughed as I struggled to breathe. Meanwhile, Melanie and Grace stared at me indifferently.Melanie smirked and said, “Do you know what karma is, Chloe? Hahaha! Matt, you should’ve done that long ago. She’s asking for a beating.”Matthew basked in her praise, seemingly forgetting his pitiful appearance at the hospital the night before.“Will you give it to us now?!” he roared, “I thought you’d be useful and secure the project through Atlas, but you’re a worthless schemer. Do you think Atlas would have feelings for you?”"You're finally speaking your mind, you bastard!" I glared at him.“Did

    Ivanna nodded and called her assistant to bring the reporters over. I told her, “Put me down and take pictures of everything.”She followed my instructions and gently let go before taking pictures of the assault from various angles. Soon after, she called the authorities and my lawyer, Adrian.Seeing Ivanna’s actions, Matthew grew agitated. He yelled, “You caused this, Chloe! Even if you call the cops, nothing will change. You’re in my house, and we’re still married. So what if we fought?”“I’ve had enough of your excuses!” Ivanna retorted and threw the knife at him.Startled, Matthew bolted to the master bedroom while narrowly avoiding the knife.Ivanna noticed my distress and cried. However, I smiled and reassured her, “Don’t cry. I’m not dead yet. It’s too late for him to stop now.”When the authorities arrived, I showed them my house ownership certificate and ID before telling the media about the assault.The scandal of Matthew’s previous affair had yet to subside, and this

    For some reason, I felt warm when he scolded me.When he started the car, I asked him where we were going, but he didn’t answer. Instead, he pinched my chin and examined my face. I blushed and pushed his hand away before glaring at him and the driver. "What are you doing?"Atlas raised the car’s partition to give us some privacy. I thought ATL Empire provided excellent employee benefits. It didn’t surprise me since Atlas was an assistant to someone important. He said, “Show the bruises.”“Uh, that’s okay. You’ve seen everything already!” I avoided his gaze and tried to hide my discomfort.However, his tone turned harsh again, “So, are those pictures fake? Will you show me your injuries, or should I force you?”My breath quickened as the situation became too intimate. After all, I had bruises in private areas that I dared not show him."I—" Before I could finish, Atlas held me and pressed his hand against my back. I couldn’t help but moan softly.He lifted my shirt without warn

    When I woke up, I felt like someone had pulled me from a faraway place. Atlas’s handsome face looked back at me. Startled, I tried to sit up but felt a sharp pain in my wounds. "Why the rush?" His voice sounded hoarse.We were still in the car, but the golden sun was setting on the horizon.Urgently, I exclaimed, "What time is it? Damn it, I need to pick up my daughter!""I used your phone to text your friend, asking her to pick her up for you," he stated. "Get up, will you? My legs are getting numb."Blushing, I realized I had been sleeping on his lap the whole time. He hadn't stirred or woken me up."Um... How long did I sleep?" I asked shyly, quickly putting some distance between us."Over two hours. Let’s go!" I quickly got out of the car. We had arrived at the same resort he had taken me to before, but it seemed less crowded this time. There were no other guests in sight. Taking a few quick steps to catch up with him, I asked, "What kind of place is this?""What's the

    I wanted to leave this place. Caution was key, and I wondered if I'd been too vulnerable around him.Atlas paused and looked at me. "What's the matter? Am I that scary to you?"My face was flushed as I asked, "Who said I'm scared?"Although I put on a tough face, I was in shambles."If you were more cautious around that scumbag, you wouldn't be in this state!" He said, "Don't worry. I won't do anything you're uncomfortable with. Unless you want me to..."Atlas remained indifferent to my pleading eyes."Lie down! You'll feel better soon." His tone softened. "Do you want me to make you?"There was no escaping this ordeal. Good intentions had led me into an awkward spot, and I felt helpless.As if under a spell, I reclined and allowed him to unbutton my shirt. He was precise and gentle when applying the ointment, but my muscles were tense.He murmured, "Relax. Next time, if you can't win, run. It's not shameful. Take a deep breath and strike hard to ensure your safety. A strong c

    I reveled in the sensations of being needed and caressed. These feelings had been repressed for too long, and I kissed him passionately.His words echoed in my mind. “I’ll have you right here. That way, you won’t have any more excuses.”It made me want to let go of my inhibitions and follow my heart.Images of Matthew and Melanie together fueled my desire for revenge and competition. I wanted it all and was determined to make it even better than anything they’d ever had.Atlas hugged me and cradled my back, afraid to hurt me. Why should I refuse him? He made me forget my troubles.I discovered that caresses could ease the pain. The wounds on my body no longer hurt. Instead, there was an unprecedented longing, a yearning for love.He must have sensed my desire. His hazy eyes looked at my face, and he murmured in my ear, “Chlo, is this okay? Will...”I covered his lips, blocking the words he wanted to say. I knew what he was worried about.My response ignited him.It was like fl

    I suddenly realized what I wanted to say might dampen the mood. We had just been swept up in a whirlwind of passion, and it would be a real buzzkill.I changed the subject. "The benefits at your company seem amazing. I'd consider working for you guys if I didn't have my own business."He looked at me calmly and asked, "Why is that?""Seeing how carefree your assistants are, it's clear your company values its employees." My reason sounded forced.He listened to my words with a faint smile on his lips. Atlas ate elegantly as I rushed through my food. It might be because I hadn't had a decent meal in days. I didn't need to act all prim and proper in front of him.After we finished, I insisted on heading back. He reluctantly got up. "I'll walk you out!"In the car, he seemed lost in thought. I gazed out the open window, the cool breeze waking me up. What had just happened felt like a dream. There were no regrets, but a hint of awkwardness lingered.I started to understand Matthe

    Leaving the courthouse felt liberating. Before I could say goodbye to Adrian, Matthew burst out. He rushed down the steps toward where I was standing.Everyone instinctively shielded me in the middle.He appeared sad and resentful. Some of his friends held him back. He stared at me with sorrow. "Hon…" He couldn't say it.My heart dropped as well."Chlo, don't go... Please, Chlo, give me a chance. I just want to talk to you for a few minutes!" He tried to get away from the people holding him, and his eyes begged me. "Chlo, give me another chance to talk to you! Even if these are our parting words, honey, we still haven’t said a lot. I'm begging you!""Don't call me that. You've lost that privilege. Besides, I don't believe there's anything left for us to discuss," I replied."No, Chlo, there's something I need to say. Please, don't hold me back! What's going on?" Matthew begged, looking at me and the surrounding crowd.I asked them to release him. "Go ahead."He glanced at t

    Four months later, at a hospital in Foswood.After being wheeled out of the delivery room, I saw my entire family waiting for me outside.My grandmother, supported by Hana, walked up to me, trembling. "Chlo, my Chlo, you've been through so much!"Beside my grandmother was a girl who looked a lot like me, standing silently beside my grandmother. She was the one who had been crafted to be my counterfeit.What was even more dramatic was that the DNA test results had revealed that she was actually my parents' daughter.

    I closed my eyes, trying hard to recall my dreams. Usually, this scenario always appeared in my dreams, but now I couldn't remember any details.Atlas looked at me indulgently. "Take your time, don't rush. Your mom will help us."I took a deep breath, clearing all the distractions from my mind. I seemed to see my mom holding my hand, eagerly walking into the woods, looking around and at the treetops. As we ventured deeper into the woods, I asked, "Where are you taking me, Mom? The woods are so dark. I'm scared! Don't go in, Mom. There might be wild animals!""Don't be afraid. I'm here with you. We need to find the tallest tree.""Why do we need to find the tallest tree?""So you can remember!""But I can't walk anymore. I'm scared!""Go sit on that rock for a while. I'll come to you.""A rock," I murmured as I suddenly opened my eyes.I quickly stood up, searching for a place with rocks."Search where there are rocks," Atlas instructed the others.Everyone dispersed quickly,

    I gazed at Atlas's anxious face, his features wavering before my eyes. "Chlo... tell me what's wrong," he said, concern etched on his handsome face. I glanced around the room, noticing all our loved ones present, their faces filled with worry, both inside and outside the door.Closing my eyes, I nestled into Atlas's embrace. I felt exhausted like never before. With a soft murmur, I confessed, "I'm... I'm okay." My head throbbed fiercely with an unbearable sensation."I'm fine," I repeated before settling back into his arms, still as a statue. In my ears, the echoes of my dream lingered.A team of medical staff rushed in. Atlas patted me gently. "Let the doctors check you out, sweetheart. You've been out for 48 hours! Let them examine you, okay?"He eased me onto the bed. After the doctors finished their examination, they briefed Atlas on the results.I drifted back to sleep, this time for real, unaware of anything.When I woke up again, the room was bright. Blinking, I look

    Ernest was truly shaken by the sight before him, visibly trembling in fear."Everyone in the car, get out! You have one minute." After Atlas's words, several red dots appeared on the foreheads of the people inside the car.The driver immediately wet himself in fear, raising his hands. "N-No... please!..."As his hand reached for the door handle to exit the car, Kenzie shot him dead. I screamed in terror, but at the same time, the man in the passenger seat slumped over, also dead.However, that shot came from a sniper outside.The others were dumbfounded. The two men beside me immediately grabbed their heads and crouched down."Get out of the car!" Kenzie shouted loudly.The two men beside me acted as if they had been granted clemency, reaching to open the car door and shouting, "Don't shoot!" Then, they rolled out of the car, clutching their heads."Kenzie... release Chloe... save me!" Ernest wailed, his appearance filled with disdain.Kenzie's voice trembled. "Ernest...""

    "I really haven't seen anything. What are you talking about? My dad never told me about this!" I gritted my teeth, holding onto this secret, but it was clear they already knew about the existence of the survey maps."If you want your children to live, you better tell me the truth. Otherwise, I won't hesitate to show you no mercy. Let me tell you the truth, I didn't plan on leaving alive!" Kenzie's admission was chilling."Then if I die, bitch, I'll take you down with me. Oh... no, scratch that. It'll be you and your children. Haha… So, tell me!" She hit me with the back of the gun."Kenzie, you know how Atlas feels about me. He wouldn't let me be harmed. Do you really think he'd tell me too much? About those maps you mentioned, not only do I not know, but I haven't even seen them. “Even if they exist, my father would only tell him..." I appealed to Atlas's protective feelings toward me, a reasonable plea since most men would be protective of their loved ones, especially Atlas.Ju

    I adjusted my breathing and asked, "What do you want to know?"Although I asked this, my mind raced. "He's been back for some time now and has said too much... You've got to tell me, what exactly do you want to know?""Louis and Rory had a secret between them. What was it?" Kenzie said, her voice dripping with malice."They…" I deliberately gasped loudly, buying myself some time. I knew Atlas would come to rescue me. My priority was to protect my children."They... two of them had a... sizable sum of money..." Since that money was already in our hands, I thought it would be futile even if they knew.Kenzie completely released her grip and then shoved my head forward abruptly. My body plunged forward, but quick reflexes saved me as I grabbed onto the front seat, steadying myself."What money? How much?" Kenzie seemed very interested."The amount is significant, but I don't know exactly." I played coy with her. After all, everyone was interested in money matters.Of course, Kenzi

    The screech of brakes pierced the air, and a gray car halted right in front of me. Instinctively, I stepped back, unable to discern the make of the car before two individuals leaped out and swiftly pulled me into the vehicle. Simultaneously, a panicked cry sounded from behind me, "Chlo…"Before I could even assess the situation inside the car, it bolted forward."What do you want? Who are you people?" I struggled and shouted.Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind, gripping my neck tightly, and a chilling voice whispered, "Enough."With just those words, I instantly recognized the person. The voice was all too familiar.I steadied my nerves and spoke with feigned calmness, "Kenzie, you've got some nerve, attacking me in broad daylight. It seems like you're really desperate. What? Your plan failed, didn't it?"My neck was forcefully pulled backward. The sudden suffocation drove me to claw at the arm, choking me instinctively."Don't move! If you don't want to die so soon, beh

    Atlas's face darkened as he uttered a curt "Hmm" and hung up the phone.Turning to Tristan, he said, "Escort Mrs. Chloe back to the office."He looked at me and softened his tone, "You go back to the office first, I'll come to pick you up later." Atlas expressed a hint of apology."Okay." I nodded.Tristan escorted me to my office and gave me some instructions before leaving.Then, my phone rang. It was a call from Trinity. I quickly answered, "Chlo, I'm about to head to the airport, I’m going to Yare. Do you have any messages for the old lady?"Her sudden question caught me off guard. I really didn't know what message to convey. After all, the old lady of the Avila family to me was just an impression from a photo."No. Let's talk after everything's settled. I'll arrange a time to visit her," I said lightly.Although the travel ban for me had been lifted with the situation becoming clearer, Yare was in turmoil, and I was pregnant. I didn't want to make any promises to the old l

    Atticus carefully watched the agitated Mia as he sat in the wheelchair. He pulled out a document and held it out for the media to see."ATL Empire invested 10 billion in Echelon Group a month ago, intending to work together to build a new real estate development and construction field in Zydan. I regret to inform you that you’re no longer a significant shareholder in Echelon, Miss Mia."Even I was shocked by that investment certificate. I looked at Atlas, who seemed confident."To be more accurate, Echelon Group had already signed this agreement before I went to Celestis Island. The real largest shareholder of Echelon Group is ATL Empire. I’m just a partner."As you planned, the shares had long been diluted, but unfortunately, not by you, but by ATL Empire. But I still want to thank you for helping me remove the scum from Echelon Group and purifying Echelon’s ranks."Mia suddenly stood up and banged her fist on the table. She shouted, "Impossible!
