Beyond the Divorce Chapter 207 Another Abduction
I deliberately slowed down to observe the vehicle behind me. After some distance, I was sure the SUV was tailing me. I wanted to see who was in it, so I stopped at a convenience store to buy a water bottle.I sipped the water and watched the SUV slowly pass by. However, it had tinted windows, and I couldn’t see inside. I waited until it was far ahead before returning to my car.This time, I drove slowly and no longer saw the car following me. I relaxed and thought I might’ve been overly paranoid.As I continued to drive, I came across a stretch of road along the coast. After passing through, I could get onto the highway back to the downtown area. However, I was wrong in assuming everything was fine.The SUV darted forward and blocked my path when I reached an intersection. I slammed the brakes and quickly locked my doors. I tried to reverse, but a black sedan had boxed me in. I didn’t know when that sedan appeared.I panicked and called for someone on my phone, not even checking w
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 208 A Glimmer of Hope Amidst Despair
I realized I had been here for a while when the sunset. Still, I saw no one around. I wondered if they planned to leave me here to die. If so, it could be Celine because my disappearance would solve all her problems.However, that would be excessive for a defenseless woman like me.On the other hand, it didn’t seem like Matthew’s style. Even if it were him, his motive would be questionable. I grew increasingly frustrated but couldn’t understand it.My hope lessened as the night grew darker. If my phone call hadn’t raised suspicions, someone at the daycare would have noticed my absence and contacted someone. They might even call Atlas to take Ava home.After all, Ava got into Sunnydale with Atlas’s help.I felt slightly at ease with that thought. However, my heart ached when I imagined Ava longing for me. I never expected to end up here and bring suffering to my daughter. I thanked my lucky stars my parents weren’t around to see this. Otherwise, my father’s life would be at risk.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 209 Serpentine Tattoo
I looked toward the door in terror. Before they reached me, the leader pointed his flashlight at me. The sudden brightness blinded me, and I couldn’t see their faces. I didn’t recognize their voices either.One whispered, “What a waste of a pretty woman.”“Shut up!” A stern voice silenced them. “Get her out of here.”I was startled and saw a figure approaching me. I tried to speak, but my words came out as muffled grunts. The man picked me up, and I struggled to free myself, but he kicked me. “Stop moving!”I looked toward the others standing in the distance. The leader was tall and muscular. They wore ski masks, so I couldn’t see features besides their eyes.I continued to squirm, and the man suddenly dropped me. I continued to make muffled cries and looked at them pleadingly. The man looked at me and then crouched to touch my face.“Boss, are we going to kill her? That’s a shame. Oh, you should have some fun with her first, then we can—”"Shut the hell up! Quit your nonsense a
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 210 Who Is the Mastermind?
Suddenly, blood splattered on my face, and I lost consciousness. When I finally awoke, I smelled disinfectant and saw Ivanna’s anxious eyes. “Chlo, you’re awake!”I felt pain all over, especially on my face. Still, I was relieved when I realized I wasn’t dead. The man with the knife got shot, and I shuddered when I recalled his knife coming down on me. If he got shot a second later, I would have died already.“Thank goodness you’re awake!” Ivanna exclaimed. Immediately after, she ran out of the room with teary eyes. “Chlo’s awake!”Atlas came in, and I choked back my sobs. He hugged me, saying, “Everything’s okay now.”I took some time to calm down before asking, "Who did this?"Atlas shook his head. "The leader got away, and we're still interrogating the lackeys. I want to know who hired them.""Who realized I went missing?" I wanted to know.Ivanna said, “It was someone from the kindergarten. No one went to pick up Ava, and the school couldn’t reach you, so Ava gave them my nu
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 211 A Strange Feeling
I woke up the next day, and Atlas was nowhere to be found. Ava had already been sent to daycare, leaving me alone with Ivanna.My face had many scratches, and I wondered if the deeper wounds would leave lasting scars. They still hurt, too.Ivanna said, "Ryan came to see you. He told me to stay here and advised against going to the company. Chlo... "She hesitated, but I knew what she wanted to say."I'm fine," I reassured her. "Where's my car?""I’ve sent it for repairs. You shouldn't go out today!" She sounded urgent. "Let your face heal before making any decisions!""Alright." However, I was still thinking about yesterday's events. Atlas likely figured out that Celine had approached me based on those photos in my bag. One glance would’ve told him everything, so I asked Ivanna, "Where's my bag?""Huh? I don't know." She promptly got up and said, "I'll go check downstairs!"She soon returned with my bag, but I found the photos were gone.The close angles in those photos unne
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 212 Unexpected Visitor
Even though my body hurt, I quickly got out of bed. After pulling back the curtains and looking down, I spotted Stella at the door. How did she know where I lived? I didn’t recall telling her that I stayed at Amethyst Apartments.She rang the doorbell twice more before I opened the door. Stella had a bright smile on her face as she stepped inside, holding a basket of fruits. She had an innocent expression as if she wouldn't hurt a fly."Ms. Stella!" I smiled and asked, "How’d you find this place?""Well, you sure went through a lot!" She walked in and looked around as if she owned the place. "Your house is nice, very classic!""Please, have a seat! Can I get you something to drink? I have coffee and tea!""Anything is fine. Don't trouble yourself!" She cheerily followed me. "How did this happen? It's truly terrifying. Did you offend anyone? How’d you end up kidnapped?"She seemed well-informed about my situation, which perplexed me."Wow, the news traveled fast!" I chuckled, t
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 213 Unintentional Information
I was utterly shocked by what I saw in the surveillance footage. There was no mistaking it—her smile was gloating.This revelation of her smile sent shivers down my spine. What was her true motive? Did she visit me just to revel in my misery?I started to wonder if she was behind the attack. If Celine had a hand in this, Stella would be the first one to know.No, no, no! It couldn't be. She couldn’t possibly want to take my life, would she?I sat on the bed in a daze with my head in my hands, not noticing when Atlas had returned. I didn’t hear him as he came to my room.Seeing my troubled expression, he rushed to me and touched my shoulder. I screamed and pushed him away frantically. "Chlo, it's me!" Atlas quickly embraced me, enveloping me in his familiar scent. Only then did I relax, realizing it was him who had returned.I looked at him, my fear slowly fading away. He looked concerned. "Don't be scared. What happened? Hm?"I let out a sigh and shook my head faintly. I did
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 214 His Birthday
Ryan called to check on my injury just as I considered heading to the office that morning.When I arrived, he spotted me and rushed over to check my face. "Is everything okay? Will it leave a scar? Does it still hurt?"My face had improved quite a bit over the past few days. The deeper scratches had faded to faint marks, and the finer ones were barely noticeable. It didn't look as bad as it did initially.He then pulled me to sit on the sofa and updated me on recent happenings at the company. Celine had ordered the abandonment of the land, leading to the Echelon Group's victory. "Celine gave up?" I asked skeptically."It seems like she’s trying to slow Atlas's growth."I was surprised and asked, "Are you suggesting she's sidelining Atlas to diminish his influence?" “Our joint project with ATL Empire isn't looking great."I mused silently over the ongoing contracts. "It looks like it’s going to get rough. Thankfully, Heartland Estates can step in now." "The projects already
