Beyond the Divorce



Seeing me react like that, Atlas pretended to be mysterious and said, "Of course, you have other roles."

"What are you up to?" I asked.

"You will take over ATL Empire, assisted by Mr. Nick and Dad, so I can focus on implementing the BZ plan," he said mysteriously. "What?" His words surprised me, and I looked at him anxiously, "That's not what you said before. You said you wouldn't just leave!"

"When did I say I would leave? But if I work behind the scenes, you can rest assured!" Atlas pinched my nose and continued, "Besides, don't you have confidence in yourself? Our family has such a large business, that it's impossible for you to just be a full-time housewife."

I looked at him and playfully pinched his face, "Are you trying to fool me?"

"No confidence?" he asked.

"I-I'm not lacking in confidence, but I'll be having a baby next year!" I blurted out, feeling a bit guilty.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

"So let Dad and Mr. Nick assist you!" he reasoned.

"In addition, I will take back the entire Pierce business! So next year will also be a difficult year. Pierce's business has been riddled with holes in the hands of Celine over the years. I am a descendant of the family. I cannot watch it be ruined by Celine."

Atlas said this very seriously, indicating that this plan had already begun. I felt excited. If Atlas took back the Atlas business, it meant that Celine's good days were over.

"How do you plan to deal with Celine?" I asked him.

Atlas didn't answer immediately, but his eyes deepened, revealing a chilling aura. I knew Atlas's hatred for Celine was a hundred times deeper than mine.

After all, how could we remain calm in the face of patricide, matricide, the loss of my mother, our separation, and the loss of 18 years...

"I want her to live and taste all the tortures of hell!" Atlas said coldly.

Just this sentence made me feel doubly refreshed.

We didn't speak anymore. Atlas held me tightly, lying down for a long time before getting up and saying, "It's almost time! Let's tidy up, and we can leave!"

Hearing his words, I quickly got up. He helped me put on my shoes, and we washed up briefly. I applied light makeup myself and put on that dress.

I had to admit, Atlas had a good eye. The size of the dress was like it was tailored for me, showing off my perfect figure.

Despite being pregnant, my figure was still great. Moreover, the design of this dress perfectly worked with my rounder belly!

Although the color was darker, it looked dignified and elegant. I intensified the color of my lipstick, making me look extremely delicate.

"I haven't seen Mia for a long time." I sighed, "She is quite aloof."

"Then let's go, Mrs. Pierce!" Atlas joked with me, hugging me tightly "You'll see her in a while! I don't know if she's aloof, but I know that my woman is the ace of spades!"

His words made me feel elated, "Why are you so arrogant? Can't you be more low-key?"

"Low-key? No need!"

With that, he took my hand and walked out of his office.

We were smiling happily, but unfortunately, we ran into Poppy and her group. They had just finished their business as we reached the door.

She saw us laughing and walking

out of the office, her eyes narrowing as if she had lost her mind for a moment. Her eyes were full of admiration and jealousy for my dress as she fixed them on me.

Then, she followed us to the elevator. Atlas gentlemanly pressed the elevator button.

When the elevator door opened, Atlas took me inside. Poppy and the other two quickly followed.

She cleverly stood on the left side and complimented me, "Mrs. Chloe has such a great figure!"

I gave a light smile, "Thank you! Is everything settled?"

Unexpectedly, my words gave her an opening. Poppy immediately turned to the somewhat indifferent Atlas standing next to me.
