Chapter 1471 Gloomy Halls of Judgment
"But our accounts need to be sorted!" Atlas's face displayed an undeniable determination. The others immediately showed signs of retreat, their faces filled with fear and resignation.
Everyone present knew how ruthless Atlas could be. Even if they didn't, they were witnessing it firsthand today.
Although the atmosphere in the hall seemed less tense now, everyone feared what Atlas would do next.
Every glance from him sent a chill down their spines, and they all felt a desire to flee. However, with the current situation, none of them could leave.
This meant that as long as they stayed here, there was always the risk of being targeted by this tyrant. After all, all of them had been too eager for success in the business world.
They couldn't help but resent today's instigator, Celine. Celine orchestrated this for their amusement, but now it felt like they had walked into a trap of their own making.
Each of them secretly vowed that if they made it out of there, they would turn over a new leaf and avoid any shady dealings in the future.
And then there were those who, prompted by Antonio's reminder, desperately tried to determine whether their own actions were related to Celine. But judging from the current situation, they couldn't escape from this vicious woman.
They all gritted their teeth in determination. After today, they would definitely settle the score with Celine.
"But... you can't treat my company like this."Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
"How should I treat it then?" Atlas countered, his eyes narrowing.
Kevin suddenly knelt before the two men of the Pierce family, crawling forward with a desperate look on his face. "Mr. Atlas..."
"Your company?" Atlas's voice was sharp. "You've got some nerve. Thanks to Adeline, you've profited from your proximity to the Pierce family. And yet, you dare to claim it's your company in front of me?"
Atlas glanced at Kevin's sons.
"Wasn't your daughter advising you to be cautious? Or did you just ignore her warnings?" Atlas taunted Kevin. "And you and your sons have turned into a bunch of parasites using your half-sister's money!"
"Atlas, you're trying to stir trouble!" The eldest son of the Ellis family shouted.
"Celine, you're quite the schemer,
even scheming against your brothers from the Ellis family! You are treating them as stepping stones, aren't you? These fools have given their all for you, haven't they?"
Kevin's sons looked unhappy.

Atlas continued with a disdainful glance, "You're truly remarkable. You've been a shady character from the start and you've managed to manipulate the sons of rich men, making them all serve you. Do you perhaps aspire to be the head of the Ellis family?"
"Atlas, you're just trying to stir shit up!" Celine roared, but it was too late.
The Ellis family's fools suddenly saw the light. Led by their eldest son, they lunged at Celine.
Celine, who had always held herself above others, was powerless to stop them.
"What are you doing? Stop right there!" She shouted while she continued to retreat.
In the end, she couldn't avoid the same fate as her mother, being beaten unconscious by her brothers.
When everything was settled, David instructed his subordinate, "Take these two away."
Just as the Pierce family's bodyguards were about to drag Celine and her mother away, a stern voice rang out at the door, "Hold on!"
