Chapter 631
However, Anson had announced that this matter wouldn’t be publicly disclosed. That was a good thing for me.
Carol’s call came in. I answered the phone and then looked at Trinity, saying, “I guess it’s time to let me go, right?”
She casually snorted. “It sounds like I was detaining you. Did I stop you from leaving? But I do need to remind you to be careful with Liora. I’ll lend you a hand when you need it!”
I looked at her triumphantly and said, “It seems like having a sister has a lot of benefits. I really took full advantage of it today.”
She leaned back on the sofa and said, “That’s right. You’ll understand sooner or later. With me as your sister, you won’t ever suffer. I just want you to know that I’m a friend who will benefit you for a lifetime.”
I suddenly realized that there was more to her words than met the eye. My attitude was originally a joke, but she took it seriously.
“I will cherish it, Trinity,” I said earnestly.
She waved her hand and said, “Alright, go on. You need to hurry, and I have things to do, too.”
I left and drove straight back to the company.
When I returned to the office, I called Atlas to update him. Otherwise, I would feel uncomfortable.
The phone rang, and Atlas answered, seemingly not busy.
“Did you have lunch with them at home?” I asked him. He had told my dad he would have lunch with them.
“Yeah,” he grunted lightly.
“Are you busy now? I have something to tell you.”
“Go ahead!”
“But I want to talk to you in person. Can you come over to my office?”
I was afraid he would be busy and not have time, but I didn’t want to go to ATL Empire.
The people there treated me differently, and I was afraid the people from the Huffman family would see me there.
I had to admit that it was better to be cautious when dealing with the Huffman family.
Atlas agreed without hesitation. “Sure, I’ll be there in a while.”
I smiled, feeling happy. “Then I’ll wait for you.”
After hanging up the phone, I waited quietly in the office for Atlas to arrive.
However, my mind didn’t stop turning, weighed the pros and cons. Although today’s incident with the Huffman family was unexpected, it might not be bad.
Soon, Atlas walked into my office. Seeing me sitting there looking troubled, he reached out his hand
and said, “Come here! What’s
wrong? Tell me.”
In that instant, all my worries disappeared.
I quickly walked away from the desk and ran over, nestling beside him. I explained everything to him in detail.
Atlas had been silent, contemplating, not interrupting my words until I finished. Then he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.
Comfortingly patting me twice, he
said, “This matter is not as
е
complicated as you think, but it’s definitely not simple either. Based on my various investigations into Anson, he is a very cunning person.”
“Yes, I also have that feeling! I’m just afraid they have ulterior motives, especially from the Beringer family.”
I didn’t hide my concerns at all.
