Beyond the Divorce Chapter 252 An Unexpected Encounter
I felt a sense of relief now that things were clear.It seemed that the Tobshampton Group was also caught up in this. This might not end well for Matthew, but he had been too eager to stand out and crush me. This time, he would have to rely on his luck. He and I were like cunning foxes, yet we couldn't outsmart these two clever vixens.Looking at it this way, perhaps it wasn't so bad that I wasn't entangled in this battle of wits with them. I preferred making modest profits in peace and finding contentment.After lunch, I had Benjamin and Carol accompany me to the construction materials market. It had been a while since I last visited.This market was where we had started our journey, tirelessly seeking clients. Reflecting on those early days brought a sense of satisfaction.The market was small at the time. It had grown into the country's largest construction materials hub, offering everything needed for large and small-scale construction and decoration.Grayson was also here.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 253 No Need for Comparison
She smiled. "I thought you were a clean and upright person. It turns out that it’s just a facade. You're aiming for the big fish while disregarding the small fry?" Her tone dripped with contempt this time."Ms. Liora, why make such assumptions? Have I offended you in some way to deserve this treatment? It's rather impolite, don't you think?" I feigned innocence.Since she had laid her cards on the table, I saw no need to dodge the issue."Heh... Is this considered impolite?" She let out a disdainful snort. "You'll do whatever it takes, won't you? Don't act all high and mighty while secretly groveling to the big shots.""Oh?" I responded with a light chuckle, never breaking eye contact with Liora.I had no intention of backing down. After all, I had already crossed her, and there was no way to avoid it. There was no need for reconciliation."In that case, I'd kindly ask you to go back and talk with Mr. Atticus about how I supposedly groveled before him. I'd love to hear about it."
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 254 A Mall Event
I sat in the car for a long time, gazing toward Pleca Park. After rush hour, I started the car and drove home. Perhaps it was from sitting in the car for so long or sheer exhaustion, but I felt dizzy. Luckily, there weren't as many cars on the road at this time, so I arrived home quickly.Upon parking, I spotted my daughter playing in the yard. I approached, and she leaped into my arms, exclaiming, "Mommy, you're back!"She then took my bag and dashed into the house. Shortly after, she returned, grabbing my hand and pulling me outside to play.I had thought about lying down for a while when I got home. However, seeing her so excited, I couldn't bear to refuse.We played in the yard together, sometimes watering the plants and other times tending to the flowers. We played until the lights came on, and it seemed that my feelings of exhaustion had dissipated.My mother called us in for dinner, and we finally entered the house hand-in-hand. After dinner, I remembered the new clothe
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 255 A Torrential Downpour
The crowd behind me surged forward, pushing me involuntarily towards the small stage.I didn't understand these people. What were they so excited about? They were all shouting and jumping around, and I couldn't help but look towards the stage.Finally, I saw him. Atlas, dressed in a sharp black designer suit and a silver tie, confidently strode onto the stage. He looked even more commanding and charismatic than the last time I saw him. My heart pounded wildly in my chest.This was my first time seeing him since that day at the hospital. He seemed larger than life, a true king among men. It was no wonder the women in the audience were going wild. They might have even tried to pounce on him if he was any closer.I hadn't realized that Atlas owned Arkadia Plaza. Even the coveted Sautoir Fine Jewelry, which everyone was clamoring for, was his. I thought Atlas was only involved in development, but I was sorely mistaken.He waved his hand, signaling the enthusiastic crowd to quiet dow

“Sure, where are you, Mr. Atticus?” I replied."I'm at the same clubhouse as last time. I'll send you the location.""Okay!" I agreed and hung up, receiving the location from Atticus shortly after. After checking the location and directions, I headed straight to the place. When I arrived, Atticus was already waiting there."Mr. Atticus." I walked in briskly.He wasted no time and poured me a cup of tea, saying, “I have a favor to ask of you, Ms. Chloe.”Honestly, my impression of this man improved with each encounter. He was straightforward and didn't play games. I said, “Go ahead.”Since I was receptive, he pulled out a document and passed it to me. "Look at this first."I glanced at him curiously, then took the document. It was a project contract but not under Echelon Group. The development area was substantial, and someone had done the planning well.However, I didn't understand why Atticus showed me this contract. After reading it, I looked at him. "Mr. Atticus?”He said t

I returned to the company and found that everyone else had left for the day. Meanwhile, Ryan waited for me in his office. As I walked down the corridor, I ran into Grayson. I invited him to join us in Ryan's office.I explained what Atticus had told me and handed the contract to Ryan. After he finished reading it, he passed it to Grayson. The latter also expressed that this contract likely had secrets."Perhaps we should be cautious and politely decline," I looked at them and said, "We just started to see improvements and shouldn't take unnecessary risks."Ryan chimed in, "I think it's worth considering since Atticus said we can set the conditions. I think it’s an opportunity for us."He leaned into his chair and pondered momentarily, continuing, "I’ll talk to him tomorrow. Since risks are involved, we should prepare conditions and a stop-loss strategy. Atticus mentioned the conditions are negotiable, so we shouldn't hold back."Grayson added, "He helped us significantly when we n
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 258 Ava’s Birthday
My hands trembled, and I remembered Atlas asking why I didn't understand his intentions. My emotions were a mess. If not for the people around me, I would’ve left to seek confirmation from Atlas.If that was the case, I had misunderstood his intentions. I forcefully regained composure. After all, I still struggled to adapt to Atlas’s distant and cold attitude. I decided not to make excuses for myself and chose to let go.No matter the circumstances, the path with him would never be easy.The following day, Ryan, Grayson, and I discussed our upcoming meeting with Atticus. I feared our actions might appear opportunistic. Ryan shook his head, stating we should protect our interests. It wouldn't mean we were abandoning our principles.He said, "The reason Atticus didn't approach anyone else isn't because he had no other options or didn't want to share the profits. It's because we’re the most suitable for this deal. Of course, we don't see all the reasons for this suitability yet."Sti
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 259 The Best Uncle Ever!
I felt a change in Ava’s demeanor and looked at her. She exclaimed in surprise and ran toward someone, calling, “Uncle Atlas!”I looked toward the entrance and froze. My heart was pounding.Ava stumbled and nearly fell from excitement and eagerness. I panicked, but Atlas caught Ava as she fell. While he kneeled and held Ava, I saw them giggling. Ava wrapped her little arms around Atlas’s neck, saying, “Uncle Atlas, you’re the best!”I couldn't help but smile at her words. Meanwhile, Atlas’s typically cold face revealed a warm smile, his eyes full of adoration for Ava. I couldn't believe someone as domineering as him could be so doting toward a little girl."Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?" I timidly asked.He only glanced at me, then gave a box to Ava. "Happy birthday!""Thank you, Uncle Atlas!" Ava's voice was pure. She took the box, blinked, and asked, "Is this the best tablet?"Atlas nodded seriously. "Of course!""Uncle Atlas, you kept your promise!" Ava threw herself
