Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1414 The Familiar Taste
I knew Atlas seemed cold on the outside, but deep down, he was warm-hearted. He cherished family above all else.Perhaps family love was something scarce in his life. In the Pierce family, it was practically non-existent, which explained his distant attitude toward his grandfather.All they showed toward their kin was indifference and cruelty.As I looked at the elderly woman before me, I softly called out, "Sandy."She instantly broke down, embracing me once again. "Ms. Stella, you've grown up so much! I’m so happy that I get to see you again.”I felt choked up too, and I was deeply regretting not remembering anything. I hated not understanding her significance in my life.Atlas quickly pulled me away, telling the nanny, "You say you're not old? You cry at the drop of a hat. That's a sign of ageing."Sandy chuckled at his words. "You just want me to get old, don’t you?”"You still have kids to take care of, so don't make her cry. She's pregnant now.” Atlas sounded somewhat smu
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1415 The Old Family Home
Atlas escorted me back to the master bedroom upstairs while softly saying, "Though it's not our original home, this is my own place. Welcome home, honey.”Honestly, I was deeply touched like never before at that moment.I belonged here, yet I hadn’t been around for so many years. Now, I had finally returned, and I was determined to reclaim what was rightfully mine.For some reason, I was really looking forward to seeing Celine again tomorrow.Atlas stayed with me as I finished washing up, and we fell asleep in each other's arms. I felt no sense of unfamiliarity here at all.The next day, as I woke up, the sound of gentle rain greeted my ears.I touched the space beside me, finding it empty and the bed already cold.When did he leave? I had slept so deeply that I had no idea.After getting up and freshening up, I changed into a comfortable long dress I had brought with me and walked out of the room quietly.We had arrived too late last night to see the surroundings clearly, but

"Mr. David sold this place after Mrs. Nancy passed away, but the buyer went bankrupt. These two courtyards were abandoned for many years, and rumors started spreading about ghosts haunting the place. But..." Sandy shrugged.Then, she continued, "Mr. Atlas doesn't believe in that nonsense, so he bought them all back.""Why would people say that?" I asked."Well, some malicious people wanted to stir up trouble, but it was all for the best. The properties eventually returned to Mr. Atlas's hands despite being abandoned for over a decade," Sandy looked proud."He's not afraid of anything supernatural. This was his grandmother's property, after all. What's there to be afraid of?" She laughed contentedly."After Mr. Atlas took over, he renovated the place. These courtyards are quite spacious. When the weather clears up, I'll show you around. It's beautiful here. “Mr. Atlas used to bring you here when you two were younger. Afterward, Mr. Atlas found me and asked me to look after this p
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1417 Journey to the Old Family Home
Although I had just heard Sandy's account of the mansion's history, I didn't stop him. I wanted to hear his perspective on the story."After my great-grandpa's business flourished, he built our family's home, and this place was abandoned. After grandma passed away, this place was transferred to someone else for a time due to financial reasons. “Unfortunately, the buyers later fell on hard times and couldn't sell it. The mansion on the left side of this property also belonged to grandma. It was abandoned for over a decade. After stabilizing the situation, I bought it back. However, the exterior still remained in its original style."I looked around, seeing a different scenery through the rain."After we eat, we'll go to the family home. It's the rainy season in Nocturnia at this time of year. You used to hate this weather when you were young."I still disliked rainy days."Is the family home far from here?" I asked Atlas."Not really. It's on the other side of the hill," Atlas r
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1418 Real or Feigned Illness
This must be David's bedroom. A wooden board divided the interior.In front of the board, there was a set of redwood tables and chairs, with three seats on each side.David, who was wearing a white suit, was sitting on the main redwood armchair.As we approached him, I could see that although he was thin, he didn't seem frail, which contradicted the news we had heard on the phone, that he had been gravely ill.Atlas’s expression was cold, indicating that he had anticipated this.However, I felt unsettled. They had claimed he was critically ill, but everything seemed fine. What was the point of that deception? Why was Celine so eager for us to return? What was her motive?Thankfully, Atlas remained composed, indicating he had anticipated this.But that woman had said things weren't looking good when he called her. I had clearly heard her, and I knew she wasn't our nanny.David was the first to speak, setting down his teacup and looking at us as we approached."If it weren't for

Celine was there before me. She was dressed meticulously, and although she was middle-aged, she still took great care of herself.We were standing very close to each other, so I could see the expensive foundation on her face that was failing to conceal her wrinkles.Not far behind Celine stood her 'shadow,' the sinister Kenzie.Celine didn't seem surprised to see me emerge from the room. However, Kenzie’s eyes widened, and she looked at me in disdain.I glanced at her and cursed silently. ‘Damn.’Celine faintly said, "So, you've finally become part of the Pierce family?”I smiled calmly and replied, "I have, Celine. Didn't you say grandpa was critically ill? As his granddaughter-in-law, I had to come see him, of course."She probably hadn’t expected me to be so bold. Her eyes darkened slightly, and her complexion turned pale."Granddaughter-in-law?" She repeated skeptically. "You seem quite eager to claim that title."I glanced at her and calmly walked out of the room.I mo
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1420 The Family’s History
I intentionally made that remark.Suddenly, I noticed the old man glancing at me.I had heard about the Pierce family's history from Grandma Rose.When the Pierce family first arrived in Nocturnia, things weren't easy for them. Their fortunes had completely turned around only after David had married the eldest daughter of the Cross family.I figured this mansion must have been built during that time. Everything about it, from its location and architectural style to the overall maintenance of the courtyard, exuded an ancient style. However, Celine's mother was just a mistress who favored luxury and fashion, so she wouldn't have liked it here. Even if she had, she wouldn't have been entitled to live here, as it belonged to the eldest daughter of the Cross family.So it was only natural that Celine had never lived here.The drizzle continued, and I couldn't be bothered to contend with Celine. Instead, I strolled leisurely in the courtyard, admiring the view of the garden. I didn't

He turned to me and said, "Why don't you go change and rest for a while? Dylan and I need to go out. We might not make it back for lunch, but I'll join you for dinner. After eating, you can take a nap until I return, okay?""Sure," I replied meekly. I could sense that Atlas had important matters to attend to since we returned here.He swiftly left with Dylan, and I watched their car disappear into the rain.As expected, Atlas didn't return for lunch with me.However, with Sandy and Iris keeping me company, I didn't feel lonely at all. In fact, I was quite content.They entertained me with stories, although I couldn't recall any of the events they described. Still, I found their tales exciting.To be honest, the more I learned, the more intrigued I became by the estate currently under Celine's control.After lunch, Sandy suggested I take a short nap upstairs. I simply agreed and went back to my room.I checked the time, and it was about 3 p.m. back home. After a moment's thought
