Chapter 1370 She Disappeared into Thin Air

As Dylan slowly drove the car away, I said, "Dylan, you helped me bury the old man from that deserted village outside Navi’s base, right?"

"Yes, ma’am. I buried him behind his house. That village is completely abandoned now."

"I feel sorry for the people in that village," I sighed. "By the way, when you were cleaning up the base later, did you find any traces of Stella?”

I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. I knew Dylan didn't like Stella, and he had even targeted her at the base. It was clear that he regarded her with disdain, not as some kind of helpless woman.

But logically, Stella couldn't have escaped on her own under the constant gunfire with those injuries to her leg and shoulder. So, how did she vanish into thin air? I just couldn't wrap my head around it.

"I didn't see her. Someone must have helped her escape," Dylan said.

"Don't you find it suspicious?" I asked, my question carrying a hint of reproach.

Dylan didn't shirk his responsibility, "Yes, ma’am.

    This time, I was genuinely surprised. "The Avila family?""Yes, the leader of the younger generation of the Avila family," Atlas affirmed."How did you know?" I asked. "Is the information reliable?""Are you doubting me?" Atlas asked. "Her whereabouts are never beyond Jared's sight.""No wonder his cooperation with the Huffman family hasn't been affected," I exclaimed belatedly. "It seems Jared is quite strategic to seize such an opportunity."Then, I asked, "What kind of man is he?"Atlas glanced at me casually as if it didn't concern him."Is he outstanding?" I asked again, and of course, Atlas knew what I meant."He's the youngest military leader in Yare. Quite a tough man, I would say," Atlas said succinctly, leaving it at that.I involuntarily shook my head, and the fleeting image of the burly figure in the elevator flashed in my mind. "No wonder when Trinity returned, she seemed very familiar with the Avila family and genuinely concerned about my grandma. From her tone

    How was this man so irresistibly perfect and flawless? Truly, it was a stroke of luck to have found him.I indulged in every bite. Yare, the Avila family—none of it mattered anymore.When we returned to Pleca Park, it wasn't too late, but the vast living room felt unusually deserted, with only my foster mom present. It was giving off a chilly vibe."Mom, why are you all alone?" I approached cheerfully, asking her."Hey. Your grandma and Arnold went back home today. The kids were tired from playing and just fell asleep, so it's just me now." She sighed, "Once they left, it felt so empty. It's better when there are more people here, and it’s livelier."I suddenly remembered that Archie had already returned to Solaris this morning with Ardie. Arnold, having decided to take over the Beringer family business entirely, had gone to the company early in the morning with Grandma Rose.All of them had decided to move back to the Beringer family’s mansion."Is Dad asleep too?" I asked casu

    We were in the cave, so the footsteps sounded hollow and clear on this quiet night.We all looked toward the door.Cane led in Clark, who looked pale and much thinner than I saw him last.My father narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of fierceness filled them. I stood by his side and quickly touched his shoulder, afraid his emotions would be affected.After Clark entered, he sneakily glanced around the room.But the next moment, when his gaze fell on my father in the wheelchair, he seemed to have stepped on an electric switch and was trembling uncontrollably.With eyes full of fear and helplessness, he looked at my father."Rory…” He involuntarily took a step back.But the bodyguard behind him suddenly pushed him forward, causing him to stagger forward uncontrollably. After regaining his balance, he made a surprising move.He knelt in front of my father with a thud."Rory, I-I was wrong. Please forgive me!" He kept repeating this with his head hung low.Standing behind my

    "I only knew that you two frequently traveled. I couldn't find anything solid, so she asked me to report to her about the purpose of your trips and the people you would meet. Tina was responsible for reporting your schedules," Clark explained."She said you and Louis had a secret that couldn't be revealed and asked me to get close to you and figure out what was happening."Leaving you alive was also her idea. At the time, she just told me to knock you out, but she didn’t mention anything about killing Mr. Louis! I knew nothing about that.”"You're still trying to justify yourself? Then tell me, who killed my mom?" I couldn't bear it anymore and shouted.Atlas immediately hugged me, softly saying, "Don't be angry.""How did Celine know about the secret plan between Louis and me?" my father asked Clark."She had long been in collusion with the organization. I don't know how she found out about the secret between Louis and you, but I only knew that she... she was the mistress of the

    Clark hung his head, saying, "I held the potion, hesitating all along, not knowing what to do. Then I received a call from Celine. She was shouting at me, saying she would give me two more hours or I would return to my mother’s dead body."I reluctantly went to the Pierce family’s residence, and Mrs. Lucille was just leaving the house then. I said I needed to talk to her. Her attitude was colder than ever before. I felt a bit scared because it was like she knew something."Clark glanced at us, then quickly lowered his gaze."Sure enough, Mrs. Lucille looked at me and asked, 'Tell me where Rory is.'"Tears welled up in my eyes, and Atlas tightened his arm around mine. I knew Atlas sensed my fluctuating emotions.Clark continued, "I pretended to comfort her, saying Rory was indeed dead. She suddenly got angry and aggressively asked me, 'Do you also think Rory is dead? Then tell me, how did he die?' I felt guilty and didn't know how to answer her."She then asked me, 'What did he sa

    My adoptive father, George, who had been silent all along, suddenly asked, "Were you the one who received the child from Navi?"Clark turned to look at George, squinting slightly, while Atlas urged in a sinister tone, "Speak!""Yes." Clark nodded, "That's how I got to know Navi.""How old was the kid? Do you remember any distinguishing features?" He seemed eager and involuntarily took a step forward.I knew he was trying to find out about where Gemma was."It was a girl. She was young, around 8 or 9 years old. There was nothing particularly distinctive about her.""And what happened to that child afterward?" I asked."She... she is now Ms. Stella," Clark said naturally.I glanced at Atlas.Stella again? But why had Atlas said the test results proved she wasn't Gemma?"Are there any other girls around Celine?" I asked."I don't know." Clark glanced at Atlas, then quickly continued, "She never let me get close to her inner circle. She only entrusted me with minor tasks and dea

    Clark continued, "I sensed something was wrong. She didn’t trust me anymore, so I secretly took my son out and kept him close to me. After all, he was still young, and I was afraid that Celine might harm him. Her usual tactic was to use him to control me."I tilted my head, murmuring, "What a perfect scheme."Clark looked at Atlas and said, "I knew that if I handed him over, she would have no use for me. So, I tested the waters..."Atlas looked at him expressionlessly, his gaze icy. "Go on."Clark turned to my father. "I told Celine you had escaped. That was when you constantly wanted to flee. When I tried that, I found out that she really wanted me dead."I had no other choice and nowhere to run. She sent her spies out everywhere to hunt me down. In the end, I had to seek refuge with Navi."I didn't know anyone else at the time. But even if I did, no one would have dared to shelter me. But Navi was different. I knew what he was capable of.

    When my father heard Clark's question, he looked at him mockingly. "Yes, we do. It's a secret that would fulfill all your desires overnight, and it’s something you couldn't even dream of!"A glimmer of hope shone in my father's eyes like a halo of imminent achievement."But someone like you doesn’t deserve to know this secret. You’re destined to be nothing but a clown, a lowlife who lives in the gutter forever!”With that said, he looked at Atlas. "Get him out of here."Clark immediately knelt up, looking at my father. "Rory, I did everything. Spare my son. He...""We can’t forgive him either. He harmed the people I love. This will be the last time you two will ever meet," Atlas said calmly."Don't get cocky. When I'm gone, my son will grow up and never let you off the hook," Jarvis shouted furiously."Too bad you don't have a son anymore," Cane said icily."What do you mean? Say that again!"

    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!
