Chapter 1088 Detaining Him Without Discussion
Sean saw that Arnold seemed very confident, so he nodded immediately."We'll act separately. I'm going to the city to exert as much pressure as possible on Byron Chandler. You all need to make good use of this opportunity." Atlas told Sean, "First, find a reason to control that assistant doctor. He’s probably a lackey who knows a lot of things. Most importantly, he must know what Beatrice has been through all these years. He’s important to this investigation.""We've thought of that. We’re looking for a reason to detain him," Sean said.Arnold was disdainful. "What reasons do you need? Just detain him without any discussion or negotiation. What are you afraid of?""He's right. You've been granted this privilege from above. What are you afraid of?" Atlas scanned Sean coldly."Alright. I understand." Sean immediately agreed."What about me?" I asked.Atlas smiled, gazing at me, and said, "You can come with me. Or you can walk around and get familiar with Gerby.""I'll go with yo
Chapter 1089 The Domineering Queen
Atlas glanced at his watch and said, "She’s almost here. Get some rest. She’ll be here soon.""When did you make the call? Why didn't I know?" I asked. He always managed to surprise me."I called her after we arrived last night. I thought you needed company, and there are some things I don't trust you to handle alone, so I called her. She took the early morning train to get here," said Atlas.Atlas grabbed his coat and said, "I'm going to the city with Arnold. You rest in the room for a while and wait for her. She’ll come see you. I've booked the room next door for her. You can talk when she arrives.""Okay!" I was very happy and glad to have Lauren here with me.After Atlas finished speaking, he left the hotel with Arnold. I immediately called Lauren, who answered, "Don't worry, I'm in a taxi. Why didn't you call me to join you yesterday? I had to travel alone.""I was in a hurry. I could barely remember to pack," I replied. "I'll wait for you!"I hung up after repeating the ad
Chapter 1090 The Star Is Being Challenged
Hazelyn looked down at me. The height advantage seemed to give her confidence."What? You’re still wandering around Gerby? How audacious!" Her tone was full of resentment and was extremely sinister."That’s right, Miss Hazelyn." I calmly raised my eyebrows, stared at her, and disdainfully said, "Do I need to be brave to be here?""Girls, did you hear that? Someone wants to make trouble in Gerby!" Hazelyn hugged her arms, looked at me with a sidelong glance, and said, "You need my approval to be here.""Who is she? Doesn't she know her place?""Exactly. Step aside!"The followers behind her were making a commotion.Lauren coldly snorted. "Oh! I didn’t think I’d see such an unruly crowd in this remote place. Are you pretending to be a gangster? Do you think you're some kind of star just because a few people are following you? But nobody told you, did they? Flies are attracted to feces!""You're talking nonsense! Stop making baseless accusations! I'll kick you out!" A woman in smo
Chapter 1091 Blowing Her Own Horn
Hazelyn's demeanor was very domineering as if she were the owner of the mall.I calmly glanced at her. "Your mall? Even if it is your mall, you don't have the authority to kick anyone out! Moreover, this mall may not necessarily be yours.""Her bragging skills are indeed impressive!" Lauren added sarcastically."Don't talk about irrelevant things. Otherwise, you'll end up embarrassing yourself again! I advise you to learn a lesson from a few days ago." I spoke to Hazelyn with a severe tone."Don't act pretentiously in front of me. Since you've come to Gerby, follow Gerby's rules!" Hazelyn was incredibly arrogant.I confidently said, "I don't know what rules Gerby has, but even if it does, they certainly aren't set by you. So, don't flaunt your authority in front of me!"All that being said, Lauren and I tried to stroll past. Unexpectedly, the people behind her blocked the passage, standing in our way and looking at us disdainfully.Hazelyn looked at me triumphantly, saying, "T
Chapter 1092 What I Say Counts
I stared at him intently, making him even more uneasy.Before he could utter a word, Hazelyn said, "Don't listen to her. Get her out of here, right now!"The security guy was immediately excited, spurred on by the command. He moved in my direction and said, "I'm asking you to leave the mall right now. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!""Then I want to see how rude you can be. Can you give me a reason to leave?" I stared directly at him.The woman with heavy makeup yelled, "Stop the nonsense! Why do you need a reason? Just get lost!"Laurie looked at her and said, "Stop acting tough there. If someone needs to leave, it's you!"The security guard became more assertive, "Leave now. She is the boss of our mall, and she has the authority to make you leave. Since she has spoken, please leave immediately. No more nonsense!"Some shoppers stopped to watch, not knowing what was happening. Several salespeople also craned their necks to see what was going on."I'll ask you again.
Chapter 1093 Slapped in the Face Again
I calmly looked at Atlas, and he didn't rush to interact with me. Accompanied by the crowd, he stood there like a king looking down on his subjects, his gaze coldly fixed on Hazelyn.Hazelyn was filled with enchantment upon seeing Atlas, her mouth hanging open as she gazed at him. There was a mixture of surprise, awe, and even a little fear on her face!A slightly chubby, tall man stepped forward from the crowd and addressed Hazelyn, "I am the general manager of Grand Tribeca!"With a serious expression, he continued, "Customers come first. This is an unchanging basic principle of our mall. This place is also a paradise for the public. So I won't allow you to drive away customers just because you want to!"Ms. Hazelyn, even if you were the owner of Grand Tribeca, I wouldn't condone such behavior! Moreover, Grand Tribeca has no relationship with the Chandler family!"The crowd erupted into a commotion. Everyone looked at the unfolding scene and could sense something was wrong.Som
Chapter 1094 Thanks For Your Guidance
A low and imposing growl came behind him, sending chills down everyone's spine.The chief security guard was the center of attention until he abruptly turned to face the voice's origin. It was none other than the handsome Atlas, surrounded by admirers like the moon surrounded by stars.The chief security guard glanced at the composed me.His mouth twitched, and he said, "Who... exactly are you?"Lauren coldly snorted, "She is Chloe Pierce, the lady boss of the ATL Empire. Tell me, where do you want her to roll off to?"The expression on the security guard's face was dreadful. He looked toward Lauren, then towards Hazelyn, feeling regretful as if wanting to bite off his tongue.He looked like a clown."It's you who should leave! With your despicable and submissive attitude, we at ATL Empire have no use for such scum! Now, get out of Chloe’s sight immediately!"The chief security guard stood dumbfounded in place. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and his eyes no longer display
Chapter 1095 The Twin Brothers
Gavin's appearance was very similar to that of Grayson. I could never have told them apart.I asked Atlas, "If both of them are together, can you tell them apart?"Atlas confidently replied, "That's the understanding between us!"I scoffed and gave him a sidelong glance. "If I spend enough time with them, I can do that too!"Everyone laughed.Sean hurriedly showed up shortly after, and Atlas formally introduced them.Sean remarked, looking slightly uncomfortable, "How can I lead the team like this? I'm worthless in comparison to all of you!"His words provoked laughter from everyone.Even I was somewhat surprised. It turned out that Gavin and the others were such elite soldiers.Sean's words lightened the mood. I knew precisely what Sean felt embarrassed about, indicating that Atlas's subordinates were formidable.Sean didn't let up and cleared his throat. "Since Mr. Atlas has called you all here for this case, I apologize for the inconvenience. Even if I'm useless, I won't b
