Beyond the Divorce Chapter 705 Someone’s Playing the Hero
Back in the hall, my gaze swept over to where Trinity was. She raised an eyebrow at me, looking cunning, like a sly fox.As I turned, I noticed Liora walking in from outside. I was puzzled—she hadn't gone to the restroom, so where had she been? However, at the moment, she didn't look too well.I took a glass of red wine from a waiter's tray, sipping it slowly while my eyes casually observed Liora. Simultaneously, I scanned the hall filled with elegance and sophistication.Ivanna whispered to me, "I'll go find out."I nodded, and she walked into the crowd.Just then, a voice sounded beside me, "I didn't expect to see you here, Ms. Chloe."Upon hearing this, I sensed an underlying meaning in the tone.Involuntarily, I turned to look, and a seductive woman was walking toward me from behind.I recognized her. She was Madison Ballard. She used to be one of Liora's followers.Madison's father was also involved in real estate but dealt with second-hand houses. Over the past few years

I remained silent and stared at Madison calmly.When she saw that I didn't respond, Madison grew even more arrogant. "Do you really think you've become a socialite just because you’re running a company and have won a few projects?"Her imposing demeanor carried a certain air of authority."Just wearing a branded dress doesn't make you sophisticated. Someone who's both an ex-wife and a mistress should be more cautious. I'd advise people like that to control themselves and stay low-key," Madison said, looking quite pleased with herself. After her remark, I couldn't help glancing at her expensive attire.To my surprise, it was luxurious from head to toe.When I still didn't respond, she shook her head and added, "That might help them not end up like Harmony one day, manipulated, deceived, and ruined.”One of the sycophants beside her chimed in when she saw my continued silence. "Exactly. Some people shouldn't have any grand illusions. In Foswood, there are many legitimate socialites

Liora was visibly shaken, and all eyes turned toward the source of the commanding voice. It was none other than Atlas. He walked into the crowd with his dominating presence. His intense gaze was fixed on me as he approached and pulled me into his embrace.I noticed that Madison turned even paler, and she instinctively took a step back."You’re Madison, aren’t you? It seems that the Ballard family's real estate business is thriving." Atlas's eyes, sharp and piercing, focused on Madison. His words were laden with meaning.Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. An elderly man pushed through, walked up to Atlas and said with a smile, "You're a great man, Mr. Atlas. Don't lower yourself to her level. She... she's just talking nonsense.""You feel like you’re on top of the world, huh, Mr. Gary? How about you check your taxes? I heard that’s under someone else’s control, isn't it?” Atlas's chiseled and stern face turned icy, which caused the atmosphere to plummet."No... Mr. Atlas

I watched coldly as Trinity was shrouded in an eerie aura. She looked nothing like the once delicate and frail figure in the hospital bed.As the crisp sound of the slap echoed through the room, Vicky collapsed to the ground, and blood streamed from the corner of her mouth. She clutched her swollen face, retreating in fear."What about the Huffman family?" Trinity bent down and addressed the terrified Vicky.Then, she swiftly turned to look at Liora. "Tell me, what does the Huffman family mean to you?"There was a mysterious expression on her face. "You're really quite full of yourself. You dared disrespect even the Huffman family, huh?”Liora's eyes darted around. She clearly felt embarrassed. When she glanced at me, protected in Atlas's arms, she knew the current situation was beyond her control.She lowered her head, addressing Trinity differentially, "She... She's still young and doesn't understand many things. Please forgive her ignorance, Trinity." She took a step back, vis

Trinity laughed sinisterly, then said, "I'll wait and see. Do you still want to take advantage of me?”Suddenly, Liora shouted, "You're ruthless, Stella!""You unloyal bitch!" Stella gritted her teeth.I suddenly felt that something interesting was going on here. It seemed Trinity had planted a landmine, and Liora and Stella had completely fallen out with each other.Trinity looked at Liora's expression with a meaningful smile. "Think about what you've done. This is just the beginning. Good luck to you!"With that, Trinity put away her audacious smile, looked at Atlas, and said, "Sorry, Mr. Atlas. I’ve interrupted you."Atlas glanced at her and did not respond. Instead, he lowered his gaze to look at me and said gently, "Are you tired? Let's go back.""Sure." I smiled calmly, looking at his handsome face.“Please wait, Mr. Atlas. Please forgive my daughter for her offense. I'm sure you can, since you're a great person." Gary pleaded fearfully.Atlas glanced at Gary, and with a

He continued, “They must have noticed the moment we caught Jarvis, so we were actually one step behind."I finally understood what he had planned. He had been doubly prepared, fearing that if they missed their target, their next step would be compromised. It wasn't about excluding the Huffman family."We need to stick to our principles when dealing with the Huffman family. It's not about exclusion." He tightened his arm around me and gently stroked my back. "I know I let you down.""Don't blame yourself. Maybe my father's ordeal just isn’t over yet," I comforted Atlas. "I know you're more anxious about this than I am.""I've already arranged for a meeting with the patriarch of the Huffman family. Rest assured, I won't give up any leads. But we need to plan things carefully before we find him. We can't waste any opportunities.""Do you think he's in danger?" I asked with concern."No. Based on the current situation, they must have other plans. He should still be there. The reason

I smiled and declined, "No, I've got things to attend to. I'm in a bit of a rush."I didn't have time to engage in a battle with her. Many people were waiting for me back home, and she was not worth my time. I also don't see the need to have a conversation with her.It was best to keep words brief.She smirked mysteriously. "Do you really not want to know why Liora embarrassed herself at the party?"I looked at her indifferently and replied, "I'm not interested. Embarrassment is just inevitable when you have a devious mind."She always played these games with me. It was not my cup of tea.Stella did not want to linger once she realized I was not buying her story. With a graceful smile, she said, "What your eyes see may not be the truth. You need to feel things slowly, Chlo. Be patient."Sure enough, she had some hidden agenda.I remained calm, giving her a casual glance. "Alright. I've got all the patience in the world. Let's go!"With that, I grabbed Myra and walked toward

I rescued this child. If it weren't for me catching him that day, such a fragile little thing might not have survived.It seems my intervention was worth it, even though it almost cost me an arm. We had a joyful and fulfilling day, and even Rose played with the kids wholeheartedly.By the time Atlas returned, it was already dinner time. Charlie, looking at Atlas, seemed enchanted. His eyes didn't blink, and suddenly, he grinned.Atlas was kind. As he reached out to Charlie, I thought he might be shy or unwilling to be held. Surprisingly, the child extended his tiny hand to him. When Atlas took him, Charlie stared at Atlas up close for quite a while, and from his mouth came, "Mommy."Everyone burst into laughter.Looking at Atlas's dignified face, all smiles, I thought he would make a great dad.Because he was so gentle with an unrelated child, I wondered how he would be with our own child. The thought made my face blush.Rose saw my expression and laughed heartily. "Chlo, whil

Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1558 The Finale
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. Jared reached out his long arm and pulled her back. "Com
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1557 Finally Finding It
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,
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1556 I Know Where It Is
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
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1555 Kenzie’s Death
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
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1553 Put a Gun to My Head
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
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1552 A Sudden Kidnapping
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
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1551 Across the Road
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
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 1550 Who is the Biggest Shareholder?
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! Atticus, are you playing me?""Y
