Chapter 1175 We Lost the Target
Suddenly, I remembered something. "Did Arnold find the notebook?""That's the reason I kept him at Pleca Park," Atlas replied.I felt a bit choked up inside, muttering, "It seems like Mom knew everything, but she didn't tell the truth."Atlas's phone rang. He answered, hearing Vincent's voice on the other end. He spoke into the phone, "The taxi turned into the city at the airport highway intersection and did not take the airport highway. We haven't located the target yet."As soon as I heard this, I became nervous. Did it mean they lost the target?While speaking, I saw that Vincent's vehicle had stopped on the side of the road.Mike quickly followed and stopped our car.Atlas hung up the phone and exited the car. I hurriedly followed.The staff from the transportation department also got out of their car, still on the phone. Seeing us approach, he quickly informed Atlas, "There's news. The taxi dropped off two passengers at the roundabout. Then they took a taxi to the capit
Chapter 1176 Airport Search
At that moment, Cane walked in, followed by a female executive from the airport. Cane reported, "We've checked the flight information thoroughly. So far, there's no record of Navi and George on any flight tickets.""They must have alternative identities," Atlas said with certainty.His words suddenly filled me with urgency. If they had successfully disguised themselves and slipped past us, would Navi be able to take both my dads?Feeling uneasy, I softly asked Atlas, "I don't understand. Why would my dad go with him? Isn't he afraid of us? There are so many people blocking his way. Is he underestimating our security checks?""Navi must have been prepared. They must be using fake identities. I'm convinced they’re in disguise," Atlas asserted. "Your dad must have followed him because Navi had many ways to threaten and coerce him."Threatened?Could my dad have a vulnerability when it came to Navi?Just then, a surprising scene appeared on the large screen, capturing everyone's at
Chapter 1177 No Need to Check Anymore
The two airport police officers who had intercepted them immediately reported to their supervisor. "They’re not passengers. Someone told them to do this."The middle-aged man looked nervously at us and stammered, "W-We don't know what's going on, it's just... He..."Atlas's voice turned icy as he asked, "Why are you here?""S-Someone paid us to do this." The man trembled under Atlas's intense gaze."Who?" Atlas asked sharply."A man with a southern accent. He's not very good at English," the middle-aged man replied.Atlas immediately showed him a photo of Navi on his phone.The man nodded eagerly. "Yes, that's him!""Where did you meet him?""At Northern Intersection 2." The man gulped nervously. "He said to just take a quick spin like this. I... I didn't know...""When you saw him, how many people were with him?" Atlas asked again."J-Just one." The middle-aged man stared nervously at Atlas."How many?" Atlas repeated."Really... Just one," He affirmed. He didn’t seem li
Chapter 1178 A Pass to Bermuda
When Mike saw that my dad was awake, he came over to shake his hand. As he spoke to my dad, he still had a lingering fear. "I was so worried, old buddy. This is all thanks to Mr. Atlas and his team. They arrived just in time. All that matters is that you’re safe.""Right after I got home, before I could even lie down, the real estate buyer came looking for me, asking about the property. He said there were some unclear details, so he requested that I go over it again... Sigh! I've made you worry."The brothers recounted the details of the kidnapping, apologizing to each other.When Atlas saw that my dad was improving, he consulted with the doctor and decided to fly back to Foswood. With that, we said goodbye to everyone.We boarded the plane through a special entrance and headed back to Foswood.My dad was quiet during the flight. Atlas and I didn’t ask him about it. After all, it wasn't the right time or place to discuss it. But it was clear that he was in a terrible mood. We la
Chapter 1179 Conflicted
Atlas looked deeply into my eyes, nodded seriously, then embraced me. He gently asked, "Are you hungry? Let's grab something to eat together."That was when I realized that I hadn't eaten anything for a whole day. I had just sipped a glass of juice on the plane."I'm famished," I replied coyly, leaning into his embrace. Suddenly, I felt completely exhausted.Had I really gone through the whole day without food?There had been no chance for a peaceful, satisfying meal with all the chaos involving Oliver these past two days. He had risked his life to save me. Then, we had suddenly found my dad, and the constant flying back and forth had made me completely forget about eating.While we were discussing that, someone gently knocked on the room door again. My mom's voice came from outside. "Chlo, Atlas, are you asleep? Do you want to come down and have something to eat?"I quickly retreated from Atlas's embrace, walked over briskly, and opened the door. "Mom! I'm starving! Is there any
Chapter 1180 Sleepy
Back in the room, I wanted to collapse onto the bed, but Atlas grabbed me and pulled me toward the bathroom. I struggled and protested. "I don't want to take a shower! I just want to sleep!""A warm shower will make you sleep even better, sweetie. Trust me!" His tone was incredibly indulgent as he effortlessly guided me into the bathroom.At this point, I was so tired that my head felt heavy, and my steps were unsteady, making his actions particularly irritating."Why are you being so annoying? I said... I'm not showering!" I pushed him away, evading his hands.He patiently embraced and kissed me, then turned on the shower and adjusted the water temperature. He swiftly removed my clothes and his own, pushed me under the water, and held me close. Softly, he whispered in my ear, "Are you annoyed? Hmm? I'll wash you. You can sleep."His words made me chuckle involuntarily. I had no choice but to comply with his wishes and lean against him.The warm water poured over us, and his
Chapter 1181 Constant Threats
Arnold happened to walk out and saw Ava clinging to me. He called out, "Ava, I’ll take you and Jenny for a ride. Do you want to go?"Ava pondered for a moment before asking, "Is what you said true?""Of course! When have I ever lied to you?" Arnold said confidently. "Come down and let's go get Jenny!"I looked at Arnold and asked, "Aren't you going to Gerby? How are things over there?""I hadn't had the chance to call Beatrice due to the circumstances involving Oliver and my father."I came back for some personal matters and to take care of some things for your husband. I'll return on Monday once the paperwork is sorted out," Arnold said casually.Ava had already run over and jumped onto him. Arnold lifted her onto his shoulder. Adorably perched on his shoulder, Ava let out a loud call for Jenny."I'll take them out later. Are you going to the hospital?" Arnold approached me, and we both headed downstairs together."I need to check on Oliver's condition. He took the... " I qu
Chapter 1182 Invisible Pressure
Arnold set down his cup with a wicked smile and said, "Both mother and daughter are cunning."When Hazelyn met with that doctor, she spiked his drink with drugs that made him have a heart attack and die! If she hadn't confessed, no one would’ve known. She had not only murdered one person but two.”"Haha... truly tit for tat. He ended up using the prescription he wrote on himself, so he deserved it!" I sighed. "They’re a dangerous family!"Arnold shook his head as he spoke, "It’s frightening. Beatrice is lucky. In Hazelyn's words, if she had given her another month, Beatrice would have died suddenly, too.""It's just monstrous," I complained. "How has Beatrice been these days?""She's been alright! Just under a lot of pressure! Suddenly, everything is weighing on her shoulders. She's a bit disorganized, so Gavin and I are doing our best to help her. Gavin is giving her systematic lessons to catch up!""Oh? Gavin has this method?" I was impressed."You're underestimating Gavin. He
