I gazed doubtfully at him. Could he have deceived me, too?It seemed that within Atlas's intricate web, I was the only one kept in the dark. I felt like a pawn expertly manipulated in this game, and I remained oblivious to the truth.My intense scrutiny may have surprised Grayson, and his mouth twitched. "Chlo."I smiled wryly. "Is there anything else I should know? The fact that he played me is, in fact, the best news I've heard yet.""Chlo, do you suspect me of betraying you, too?" Grayson asked.I fell silent. Even Atlas, Nick, and Dylan had all deceived me. Who could I trust now?Did Atlas not realize how devastating this would be for me? I had spent countless sleepless nights worrying if he was alive. It all turned out to be a lie.I looked at Grayson. "Tell me, are there any further updates?""Apart from Nocturnia, all the ATL Empire accounts in other countries have been frozen."I instantly understood."It seems this time, it's quite the grand move," I murmured. Even

I sighed heavily as we left ATL Empire. Carol sensed my mood and offered to drive. I handed her the car keys without a second thought and got into the car. As I looked at the building through the car window, I smiled bitterly. Its existence felt almost like a mirage to me, something that might vanish at any moment. It was possible that I was just a silly presence from the start, or maybe even just a shield.Back at the office, I was in low spirits. Carol kept the staff away from me and left me alone in my office. I sat in my chair and stared out the window, trying to piece together the entire process of knowing Atlas. Despite remembering every detail, I couldn't make sense of our relationship.I lost track of time. Eventually, Carol knocked on the door, holding an invitation card. She asked softly, "Ms. Chloe, ATL Empire is hosting an appreciation party for old clients tonight at Starlight International. Are you...going?"Since we were also clients of ATL Empire, I had no reason

When we arrived at Starlight International, the parking lots were packed and it took a while for us to find a spot.We eventually made our way into the venue, which was teeming with people. The guests at the event were ATL Empire's clients from various industries, as the company had diverse business interests.I felt a little underdressed compared to the elegantly attired ladies in the room. Most of the women looked angelic and exuded gracefulness.Ryan seemed to sense my discomfort. Our arms were linked, and he patted my hand. "This style suits you the best. Otherwise, you'd stand out too much!"I smiled and said, "You're just trying to humor me."Ryan looked at me warmly. "I'm not just humoring you. Let's take a quick tour, and if you're not comfortable, we can leave. The crowd is quite diverse today, so we don’t need to stay too long.”I surveyed the bustling hall, and he was right. it was more like a Christmas party and didn't seem entirely suitable for us.Today appeared to

The spotlight was on Atlas as he delivered an eloquent speech on stage, thanking clients who had supported him for years.I stared at his handsome face as I struggled to contain my sense of loss.A server gently whispered, "Ms. Chloe, someone is waiting for you on the rooftop."The server quickly left, and I looked around skeptically. Everyone was focused on the dazzling man on the stage.Who could be looking for me? I quietly made my way to a staircase that led directly to the rooftop, which was designed to look like an elegant open garden.Because of the evening's event, the rooftop was open to visitors. It was quieter than the bustling atmosphere below, making it suitable for private conversations.When I went into the rooftop garden, I did not see many other people. Most were gathered below, listening to Atlas.As I glanced around, I couldn't spot anyone waiting for me. Suddenly, I heard footsteps. I spun around and saw Harmony gracefully walking toward me.She was unde

Her crazy fans didn't care about the truth, and soon chaos erupted in my hospital room.The window was broken, and the door was forced open. They started throwing eggs, rotten vegetables, and foul seafood at me. The room turned into a mess with an unbearable stench, worse than a public garbage dump.The situation went out of control. Ryan shielded me, and stinky egg yolks ran down his body and covered his head.The hospital eventually called the cops, who intervened and removed several instigators. They then dispersed the crowd from the hospital, finally ending the ordeal.When Lauren arrived, she saw me trembling in fear. Despite the mess, she hugged me while crying.I might have cried all my tears the previous night. Apart from shivering in fear due to the frenzied mob, I didn't feel anything else.Furious, Ivanna stormed into the VIP ward to confront Atlas in Harmony's room, but it was heavily guarded. It seemed they were ready to prevent any disturbance that might affect Harm
