Chapter 1205 Exploding in Anger
My mom immediately became nervous when she heard about my plan to go to Bermuda. After all, the memories of that place haunted both of them. They rescued me from there, and now, my willingly going back seemed to be a mad thing to do.She tightly held onto my hand, asking, "Do you really have to go?"I nodded firmly. "Yes. After all, it's been 20 years. We don't know anything about his condition. I'm afraid, and I want to see him. I don't even remember what he looks like anymore, and he might not even know that my birth mother is no longer around.”"But didn't you say Atlas already left?" She scrutinized my face with concern. "He's gone, and you want to go alone? That place is dangerous. What if...""Mom. I understand what you're saying. I'm not going alone. Atlas rescued a brother and sister duo, and the brother is with Atlas now. This time, I'm taking the sister and a bodyguard with me." I spoke with confidence."You can rest assured. It's a personal wish of mine, and I don't wan
Chapter 1206 A Reasonable Argument
"What you said is not right, Arnold! What do you mean he doesn’t need me? That’s my dad we’re trying to save!" I followed him downstairs. "I'm bringing Anya as my guide. What's so dangerous about that?""I said you’re not allowed to go, and that's final! Atlas said the same before leaving too," Arnold insisted, not even turning his head to look at me."Did he discuss this with you? I didn't know that." I was surprised by his attitude. He had never been like this before.I was about to argue with him as we entered the dining room. But when I saw that the room was full, I quickly shut my mouth. Even my dad was here. Ava had stopped crying. All her attention was now on Anya. She ran to my side excitedly. "Mommy, did you know? We have a new friend, and she's so pretty. Look!"Arnold only noticed Anya now as he saw her sitting next to Grandma Rose."Did you invite your new friend to breakfast?" I smiled at Ava."Yes, I did." Ava nodded seriously, then ran over. "I'll have breakfast
Chapter 1207 No Rejections
I was about to argue with him again when Grandma Rose stopped us. "Let's eat."My mom quickly agreed. "Yeah. Let's talk after breakfast."Jim promptly started serving the food, easing the tension in the air.My dad tried to change the topic and said, "I've planted those seeds in a sunny spot, just like the instructions said.""Were the instructions clear?" I understood that my dad was trying to lighten the mood by bringing this up."They’re very detailed. It looks like it’s a precious plant. I'm looking forward to seeing it grow." He seemed to be in a much better mood now.Ava immediately joined the conversation. "What did you plant, Grandpa?""I don’t know yet, but it needs a lot of care to grow well, just like you,” My dad teased. "Do you want to wait for it to grow with me?""Yeah. I'll watch it grow with you, Grandpa." Ava said eloquently. She could sense that Arnold was different today, and she kept looking at him when she said that.Grandma Rose talked to Anya while we a
Chapter 1208 Heading to Bermuda
He had brought up some practical concerns.I found myself speechless under his questioning. It seemed a little far-fetched to say that everything was fine with Beatrice. "Plus, even though Anya’s familiar with the place, she’s been missing for a while. If she suddenly reappears, she might attract attention. She's still just a kid. I can’t believe you're bold enough to follow her like this!" Arnold's tone held a hint of anger.He added, continuing to grumble, "Atlas spoils you too much too. You're stubborn, and he just lets it slide. I don’t understand it."I had never seen Arnold so serious before. He looked quite impressive with his handsome face darkened like this, completely overturning the image I had of him.And I had to admit that he was right. His concerns were valid. I thought having Anya meant I had everything under control and I wouldn't have to worry about safety issues with Arton.But I now realized that Anya was just a child, and putting all my trust in her was risk
Chapter 1209 A Dreamy Expression
After getting off the plane, the stifling heat hit me immediately. It seemed like it had just rained here, but it definitely wasn't as heavy as would have been in Foswood.The scorching sun felt like a furnace, making it unbearably hot.As soon as I walked out of the exit, my eyes were drawn to a commanding figure in the crowd. With his sleek hair and partially covered handsome face behind sunglasses, he exuded an irresistible charm, making him look incredibly handsome.His presence dominated the entire hall, attracting everyone’s eyes.Atlas seemed more casual than usual. Today, he was wearing white sportswear, which was a rare sight. As he looked at us walking toward him, a faint smile played on his lips, causing everyone, especially the women, to stop and stare.Some even dared brush past him intentionally, then turned back to flirt shamelessly, trying to talk to him.I couldn't help but frown and walked toward him determinedly. But before I could assert my dominance, he beat
Chapter 1210 More Secrets
I nestled comfortably in his arms, listening to his descriptions. It was my first time here, so everything felt novel."Is there anything delicious to eat here?" I asked."Of course. When did my baby become such a foodie?" He nibbled on my earlobe, and I instinctively recoiled, giggling.I whispered softly in his ear, "I don’t see any chaos here.”He laughed and kissed me. "Everything always looks more glamorous on the surface.”I immediately understood his underlying message. But I felt content and safe with him by my side.When we arrived at the hotel, I was even more amazed. The beauty here was intoxicating. I had seen plenty of subtropical landscapes, but this place left me speechless.As we got out of the cars, Atlas said to Arnold, "You take care of them."Arnold was clearly very familiar with this place. And to my surprise, the people here spoke a language I understood.The hotel was by the sea, with detached guesthouses. Atlas didn't bother about the others and took me
Chapter 1211 Hidden Forces at Play
"Have you found out anything?" I asked."They’re just speculations for now. There's more to our fathers’ situation than just the plane crash. The non-organization must have hidden secrets from our fathers. Also, Navi must have caught wind of some information, which is why he's reluctant to let go easily," Atlas explained."What do you think it could be?" I asked.Atlas shook his head slowly. "It's hard to tell at the moment. We'll only understand the whole picture once we rescue Rory."I felt even more pressure. What exactly had happened to my dad? What made him suffer for 20 years?Atlas said patiently, "That's why I didn't want you to come. This game is unpredictable, but for us, saving your dad is crucial.""But can Xavier really help us?" I asked, feeling a bit worried.Atlas scoffed. "It's just a matter of each side getting what they want. Navi caused Xavier a lot of trouble over the years, and Xavier has been wanting to get rid of him for a long time. But Navi isn't someon
Chapter 1212 Preparing for the Coming Storm
Downstairs, Atlas had already set the table, but I didn't see anyone delivering the meal.As soon as I saw the delicious spread, I felt invigorated, almost unable to control myself. I was eager to dig in right away.Atlas seated me and skillfully sliced the steak, placing it before me. I wasted no time and started eating. The lobster here was exquisite, and I indulged in its flavors.While eating, I looked at Atlas and asked, "Do you think it's possible to find clues about Gemma?"It had been a wish of mine to find my parents' biological daughter.Atlas shook his head. "It's hard to say since we're not insiders of Navi's organization. But I've already instructed Dylan to get close to the senior members around Navi. However, this requires careful negotiation, and we can't rush it, or it could be dangerous.""Is Navi's headquarters here?" He shook his head. "No, I just came back from there this morning."I caught onto something. "You've been there before?""Yeah. I went straigh
