I couldn't help but smile. Before going to sleep, he always needed to embrace me to feel secure.

I had no choice but to obediently climb onto the bed after realizing that he was already tired but insisted on staring at me and holding onto my hand. He motioned for me to lay my head on his chest while he extended his long arm and patted it. I did as he said, and then he comfortably embraced me.

By the time Mia answered the phone, he had already fallen asleep.

I moved a little away from him. I lowered my voice, and called Mia, "Mia, are you in Foswood?"

"Yes! I am." Mia's tone was very relaxed. "I heard you went to Nocturnia. You're back?"

"Yeah! I came back last night." I chuckled lightly, but it seemed she also knew I went to Nocturnia.

"Why did you come back so soon? I was planning to call you and invite you out, but I heard you went to Nocturnia, so I didn't."

I quickly told Mia, seizing the opportunity, "I just saw Trinity today and wanted to gather tomorrow at Pleca Park. It

    The next morning, I woke up to a pair of clear, endearing eyes.He wrapped his large hand around my waist as he noticed me waking up and gently inquired, "Awake?""When did you wake up? Why didn't you sleep a bit more?" I reached out and pinched his cheek, then my arm draped over his neck as I stretched lazily.He opened his mouth to stop my hand gently. He smiled, and his eyes filled with affection.I smiled and dodged a bit. Atlas’s big hand naturally rested on my slightly bulging belly and said joyfully, "I realized that the two babies have grown! Feel it!"I placed my hand lightly on my abdomen. That feeling was truly blissful. What used to be a flat belly was now firm and round. It had only been three months, but I could already feel them.We both had our hands placed on my belly, interacting with the babies inside. I looked at him and softly asked, "Do you think they can feel it?""They will! They will definitely feel our love for them. Don't underestimate them. These two

    Atlas elegantly ate breakfast and said to everyone, "Everyone here has a connection to that place. That’s why we're all going back together, including your father, your parents, Molly, and Jenny. Your father has wanted to go back and visit for a long time. We need to fulfill that wish."He had thought about everyone.I saw Molly's face light up with joy. Since she arrived at Fremont Bay, she had yet to return to Nocturnia. Of course we should let Jenny get closer to her parents. We would be selfish to do otherwise.Atlas continued, "I've asked some top experts to examine your father’s legs. He needs surgery as soon as possible. He can recover in Foswood after having the surgery in Nocturnia."I nodded. "We can’t delay this any longer. If his condition permits it, I want the surgery done as soon as possible too."Atlas glanced at my dad and seriously said, "I've contacted your father’s school as well. It's their anniversary this year, and they'll invite him back for a visit."My d

    After breakfast, I said to Atlas, "I'm going upstairs to change. Wait for me, I'll come with you guys. I need to make a quick stop at the company after I drop off the kids. Looks like I'll be busy today.""Okay. Take your time, we'll wait for you," Atlas said softly.Ten minutes later, the four of us happily got into the car together. After dropping off the children, Atlas drove me to the company.When I arrived at the company, Carol exclaimed, "Chloe, you're back? Why are you back so soon?"Her exclamation of surprise brought Ryan and Benny over. They had arrived early at the company.They were all surprised at how quickly I had returned.I had come to the company to see Ryan. After chatting with everyone for a while, I went back to my office with Ryan. I gestured for him to sit down as I asked, "Have Mike and the others arrived?""You gave the decree, so of course they came," Ryan said helplessly."I'll go see the new house later," I said quickly.After asking Ryan about the

    Instead of chatting aimlessly with him here, I'd rather go straight to the design institute. I could meet Joyce there and discuss the wedding arrangements with her directly, and I could also see Hana. I hadn't seen her since my father was rescued.I also had to visit the Reese family and the little one at noon. It had been too long since I had last seen that child; I couldn't neglect them.The Reese family had worked tirelessly to ensure my safety at the construction site, so of course I had to go see the child. Besides, I really missed the little guy.I decided to leave immediately, which surprised Ryan. "Why are you leaving?""Do you have anything else to do? If we can't communicate, then there's no point wasting time." I looked at him unapologetically.Ryan quickly stood up from his chair. "I really don't understand. Is this your wedding or mine? Why are you so nervous?""Thank goodness I didn't marry you. It wouldn't have lasted long." I glanced at him in disdain, grabbed my

    As Tris was about to start the car, Carol immediately said, "Hold on a moment, Tris. I know the way, I’ll drive. Let's switch positions."Tris looked at Carol doubtfully. I smiled and said to Tris, "Let her drive. She’s a good driver.”When Tris heard my words, he quickly exited the car and swapped positions with Carol.Before we got to my shop at the building materials market, I saw a crowd of people ahead, blocking the path to the storefront.Carol exclaimed, "Oh no, we came early, but it’s not the right time. We've walked right into it!"After speaking, she quickly parked the car and got out in a hurry. She ran to my side, opened the car door, and helped me out.We hurriedly made our way inside.Carol shouted anxiously from behind me, "Slow down, Chloe! Oh my goodness!"From afar, I heard a loud soprano voice roaring, "Eleanor, you slut! How dare you still oppose me? Do you think no one can fight you in this market anymore?"When I heard that voice, I concluded that it was

    As soon as I spoke, it immediately garnered support from several merchants with whom I usually got along well. "Exactly. This woman is causing trouble and being unreasonable. She’s always here to make trouble. What does she want?""Yeah, looks like she’s still not satisfied and tried to swagger around. I wonder where someone like that came from?""I don't know who gave her the confidence to provoke other people every day!""This market hasn’t been peaceful ever since this woman came here. She causes trouble every few days. Now, she's turning the tables and accusing other people of competing with her. What kind of person is she?"The discussions of the crowd drowned out each other. I looked at Andrea with an unrelenting gaze. The burly men did not step back. They stood before me with their necks stretched out, threatening to advance again. They played with the wooden and iron rods in their hands, and looked sinisterly at Tris and me.However, I knew deep down that these uncouth i

    "She’s just stating the facts. We're in this mess because of her. She blatantly disregards business rules and has no integrity whatsoever. If people like her stick around in this market, we might as well quit.”"We're all barely making ends meet, trying to solidify our market share. Especially now, we should stick together to maintain a harmonious market order. People like her aren't here for real business.""Exactly, she's just disgraceful!""Look at her, trying to dominate here, rallying these thugs. What's her game?"The crowd grew more infuriated, shouting louder.I gave a cold look at Andrea. She was visibly flustered across from me, and I asked, "Is this what you call malicious competition?"Andrea immediately pointed at the surrounding crowd and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!"Then she turned to me, pointing, "Chloe, who do you think you are? You’re just a cheap woman relying on a man's authority. How dare you talk back to me?"As she ranted, she shouted at the men aroun

    I exclaimed in shock, "Carol!”Carol, upon hearing my exclamation, suddenly turned around and froze in place. It was too late to dodge, but just as the bat was about to strike her, Tristan grabbed another hefty man in the nick of time.The man was flung out and crashed into the man wielding the bat. With no footing, both burly men fell heavily to the ground, emitting a muffled thud.Carol jumped aside in astonishment, watching the two men tumble to the ground. Then she gaped at Tristan.Even the onlookers were surprised by Tristan's actions. Nobody could understand how he, with his slender frame, effortlessly knocked down the two hulking men. It was evident how powerful his force must have been.Andrea was also stunned by the scene. She covered her face, watching the rolling men on the ground, then pounded her chest in anger. "Useless! What are you all doing? Just watching them fight? Hit them! I'll show you who's boss today. Get them!”The men seemed to snap out of their daze, c

    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. When we found out, we cried tears of joy. It was truly heaven-sent. From then on, I gained another sister, who was like a twin to me.Feeling a little weak, I looked at her kind smile and said, "Grandma! It's two boys!""We all saw them. They’re very handsome and healthy! I can finally rest assured. My daughter has a life partner now," Ivanna said as she eagerly squeezed by my side.Everyone burst into laughter.

    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!
