Chapter 1536 False Alarm
The phone call was from the kindergarten teacher, and her tone was urgent. "Are you Ava’s mom? Ava suddenly fainted and convulsed and started foaming at the lips. We have no idea what's happening. We’re sending her to the hospital. Please come to the hospital as soon as possible!""...What? Which hospital?" I shouted into the phone as I shot up from my office chair."City Central Hospital!" The teacher replied tearfully as the blaring horn of the ambulance sounded over the phone.I felt weak all over, and my heart pounded violently. My little girl had been fine when I left in the morning. She had teased me saying, "It's almost Christmas, Mommy. When are we going to Nocturnia for Christmas?"I was speechless. This Christmas probably would go differently than planned. After all, with the current situation, who could even think about Christmas?I had to coax her away this morning. How could something like this happen so quickly?Carol saw me rush out of the office and immediately ra
Chapter 1537 Only One Way Left
My heart suddenly tightened as I watched them walk in together, sensing that something must be amiss in Yare.Trinity looked at me with a hint of coldness in her eyes while Hana simply followed behind her silently.The atmosphere in the office became awkward.I maintained a calm outward demeanor, but curiosity was gnawing at me inside. My mind was making all kinds of speculations.Carol brought them coffee. After setting it down, she glanced at me before quietly leaving the room.Finally, I couldn’t hold back. I looked at Trinity and asked, "Why the silence? What brings you here?"Before Trinity could answer, there was a knock on the office door. Atlas pushed the door open and strode in.I immediately understood that they had been waiting for Atlas.After Atlas came in, he immediately understood the situation after glancing at all of us. He unbuttoned his suit jacket, sat on the sofa, and addressed Trinity. "Speak.""The Non-Organization has started moving. There have been man
Chapter 1538 Losing His Temper for the First Time
After we saw them leave, Atlas made a phone call. I was sure he was calling Dylan. He said a few words briefly and then hung up.I asked Atlas, "How can we make them take action?"In fact, I already had a plan in mind when I asked that question.Atlas's eyes suddenly grew icy as he began to stare at me. I felt a little guilty and lowered my eyes because it was the first time I had seen him look at me so intensely."Chloe!" He called my name angrily.There was a hint of coldness in Atlas's attitude. "Don't even think about it. Don't try to play your little tricks. The opponents you’re facing are not as foolish as you imagine."I knew why he was angry.This was the first time he had scolded me since we had gotten together."Anything you do could ruin my plan and endanger our children. Listen to me, Chloe. I can give up anything, but not you and the children. So don't act recklessly.""But we don't have much time left!" I retorted urgently."I won't allow my wife and children to
Chapter 1539 Face-to-Face Silent Battle
After hearing her question, I smiled. "That's a tough question to answer.""Oh?" Mia narrowed her eyes at me. "Just say what you think. I believe honesty is the best policy.""You know that I've always been honest with you. You have a deeper understanding of human nature compared to us." I spoke frankly.Mia's face stiffened for a moment.I suppressed my smile and lightly said, "If I say I don't mind, it would be hypocritical. But if I say I do mind, it would make you uncomfortable since you’re my guest. It looks like you’re deliberately making things difficult for me."I could tell that my response left Mia in a dilemma.I had deliberately said that. Why did I have to pretend everything was fine and make her feel comfortable? She had already made blatant moves against me, but she was acting as if nothing had happened when she saw me. It was unreasonable for me to just smile and talk to her as if nothing was wrong.I used to think Arthur was too eager for success, but I hadn't e
Chapter 1540 Losing A Friend
As Mia scrutinized me, I continued, "Miss Mia, I've had a good impression of you since the day we first met. You may be arrogant, but I’ve never harbored any bias against you."These were my honest thoughts about Mia."But when you took the first step for the Tomlinson family, I no longer saw you as a myth. On the contrary, you were just an ordinary person, devoid of any wisdom."I was harsh, but I didn't intend to show her any respect at all."Of course, I don't know if your marriage was arranged at your father's behest or if you truly fell in love with Ernest and influenced your father. But the result was tragic regardless.""You're going too far, Chloe!" Mia straightened up and looked at me in anger.I smiled meaningfully and continued, "If it's the former, you have some of my sympathy, but if it's the latter, you're really awful! I have to say, you haven’t just ruined your father's future. You’ve also ruined the Morgan family’s future.""I never thought of you as a bad perso
Chapter 1541 Another False Alarm
Atlas was waiting in front of the building. He came over when he spotted me, gave me a gentle embrace, and helped me to the car.As we passed by, people were looking at us. After all, I hadn't been to the company much lately. Seeing me visibly pregnant next to Atlas was quite a sight.However, I was calm. After all, I was legally married to him. After settling me in the car, Atlas got in, and the car drove off amidst the astonished gazes of the onlookers.He put his arm around me inside the car, and I leaned comfortably towards his chest. It felt nice."I showed no mercy!" I said to Atlas, and he understood perfectly what I meant.After all, his wife was an absolute trump card."I'll never forgive the Morgan family for what they did to Archie! No matter what, I am a legitimate daughter of the Beringer family," I said sternly. Then I asked, "Can you find a way for me to see Archie?"Atlas's lips curled as he said, "No one is allowed to visit during the isolation period."I was
Chapter 1542 The Illegitimate Child
I understood what my father meant. After all, the other half of the distribution map had yet to be found."So, we staged a play to provoke the Tomlinson family! But Leonard isn't the main leader of —there's someone else!" Atlas said."Someone else?""If Archie doesn't fall, they won't dare to act recklessly. Only by 'taking down' Archie, they would dare to act without restraint. Then we can capture the main leader." Atlas looked at me confidently and said, "And only Archie and I know about this plan.""What about Arthur Morgan?" I asked, feeling a bit puzzled.Archie mentioned Arthur with some anger, "He's a complete villain! Despite grooming him for so many years, he betrayed me in the face of self-interest! Our national security has frozen his overseas accounts.""...National security?" I was surprised as I did not expect that we had national security guarding us from behind."Grayson and Gavin are both soldiers of national security.""Ah..." I was utterly stunned, realizing
Chapter 1543 Late Night Emergency Meeting
"Because there was an agreement between Grandpa William and Celine. She’d managed the Pierce family, and when she got married, it would be taken back by Grandpa William." Atlas sneered. "So, if Celine publicly acknowledges having a child, everything will be lost!"This is also why Celine has never dared to resolve her personal issues," Atlas said contemptuously."Moreover, Grandpa made a will for all of the Pierce family's assets when he verified that she was Kevin Ellis’s offspring. I became the sole heir of the Pierce family. When we went to see him that time, he handed over the real vault keys of the Pierce family to me.""No wonder Grandpa William had a private conversation with you!" I finally understood the reason behind it. "Is this also because Celine drugged Grandpa William?""Yes, as long as Grandpa is alive, she won't have a moment of peace. She's most afraid of Grandpa taking this action! So she has been racking her brains, trying everything to make Grandpa let go." Atl
