Beyond the Divorce Chapter 125 Liberated
Leaving the courthouse felt liberating. Before I could say goodbye to Adrian, Matthew burst out. He rushed down the steps toward where I was standing.Everyone instinctively shielded me in the middle.He appeared sad and resentful. Some of his friends held him back. He stared at me with sorrow. "Hon…" He couldn't say it.My heart dropped as well."Chlo, don't go... Please, Chlo, give me a chance. I just want to talk to you for a few minutes!" He tried to get away from the people holding him, and his eyes begged me. "Chlo, give me another chance to talk to you! Even if these are our parting words, honey, we still haven’t said a lot. I'm begging you!""Don't call me that. You've lost that privilege. Besides, I don't believe there's anything left for us to discuss," I replied."No, Chlo, there's something I need to say. Please, don't hold me back! What's going on?" Matthew begged, looking at me and the surrounding crowd.I asked them to release him. "Go ahead."He glanced at t

Matthew froze when he heard my words. His eyes showed unwillingness that only I understood.Melanie grabbed his arm and yelled, “Chloe, you’re seducing him in public now! You’re shameless!”I glared at her, then turned to Matthew, saying, “I have some departing words for you. One day, you’ll realize how horrible, disloyal, and unrighteous you are for abandoning your wife and daughter.“We’re divorced now, so stop being deluded. We’ll go our separate ways, and I hope we never cross paths again.” I turned away but noticed Matthew’s eyes reddening.I thanked Adrian and then got into the car I had bought with my mom, Ivanna, and Ava. I saw Matthew through the rearview mirror, watching me leave.I went to the hospital to fetch my dad. That evening, we celebrated my divorce with Ivanna, and she asked me if I wanted to invite Atlas. Although I rejected her request, she teased me, “I can tell he’s interested in you.”“You’re being ridiculous. I just got divorced.” I rolled my eyes, and s

It was Ryan Phillips, my senior at university. Coincidentally, we grew up in the same town. I heard he had ventured abroad. Besides that, I hadn’t received any news from him for many years.I instructed Carol Adams, my assistant, to call him for an interview. Carol was a veteran employee at Tanum Corporation. Although she didn’t have a higher education, she possessed impressive business skills and memory.She chose to stay with the company because of a conflict with Melanie. Hence, I promoted Carol to be my assistant.When I met Ryan, I could tell he knew I owned Tanum Corporation. While delighted by the reunion, I didn’t beat around the bush, “You know it’s me, right?”He responded with a faint smile, saying, "I do."“My company is modest in scale and might not align with your qualifications and experience,” I stated, “I must also clarify our salary may not meet the standards you’ve grown accustomed to in larger corporations.”He replied straightforwardly, “Let’s make a deal. Yo
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 128 Utterly Exhausted
On my way to Solaris, I looked out the plane window at the clouds. Suddenly, I thought of an unexpected person. I hadn’t seen or heard from Atlas since the divorce proceedings concluded. Although he hadn’t called, I somehow felt disappointed.Still, I kept my distance, not wanting to get too close to him. Despite my efforts, I couldn’t help but wonder why he hadn’t called or even texted me. Strangely, I saw a missed call from him after turning my phone on when the plane landed.My mind raced, but I returned the call after some hesitation. Atlas asked, “Where are you?”"I just landed in Solaris," I replied."Alone?""Yeah.""All right, stay safe." His tone was distant, and he didn't seem interested in continuing the conversation. "I'll hang up now."I was frustrated. Atlas called me, yet he didn’t intend to say much. I was about to ask why he called, but he had already hung up. I sighed and pocketed my phone, feeling conflicted.When I met Fred this time, he seemed much better.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 129 Late Night Visit
I thought I was dreaming, so I palmed my forehead before laying back down. However, the knocking continued, and I tensed up, asking, “Who is it?!”A voice from outside replied, "It's me!"I couldn’t believe it. My drowsiness disappeared as the person repeated, “Open the door, Chloe. It’s me.”I jumped out of bed and stumbled to the door. My heart raced as I mumbled, “That voice sounds like… How’s that possible?”I peeked through the peephole and saw a tall figure standing in the dimly lit corridor. My heart skipped a beat, and I trembled before opening the door. I saw a weary-looking Atlas standing before me with a faint smile.I stared at him in disbelief, fearing he would disappear if I blinked. I asked shakily, “H-How’d you get here?”I wanted to throw myself into his arms but dared not. He looked at me and pursed his lips, looking somewhat tired. “I knew you were here, so I had to come. Aren’t you glad to see me?”Then, he put his arm around my shoulder and said, "Let me in.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 130 The Graceful Silhouette
We woke up close to noon the following day, and I felt Atlas’s arms wrapped around me. I doubted he would let go if Fred didn’t call me.I told Atlas I still had work to do and had to return to Foswood in the evening. He released me and got up, offering to have lunch with me.My relationship with Atlas made me feel conflicted. I wondered what we were to each other. It felt like the puzzle pieces just fit. He hadn’t made commitments, and there were no declarations of love.Whenever I saw him, I didn’t know how to refuse him. For some reason, I felt comfortable being with him. He didn't ask for my consent again and simply took action. So, I dared not ask him about the nature of our relationship.It was already late at night when I reached Foswood. I was so exhausted that I could barely speak. My mom looked at me with a heavy heart and shook her head, saying, “Chlo, why are you pushing yourself so hard?“Do you want to come home with your dad and me? Life is short, so isn’t comfort a
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 131 A Den of Vice
I saw them standing up out of the corner of my eye. The woman spoke to Atlas while she casually put her arm around his. When they turned, she looked arrogantly at the diners. Although not striking, her delicate face was charming.Atlas met my eyes with a blank face. She followed his line of sight and turned to face me. Her entire body froze, and there was a peculiar expression on her face.Atlas calmly led the woman away. Just before they disappeared from view, she shot me another glance.Ivanna noticed how Atlas's presence affected me and said, “Let’s grab some drinks. Loosen up a bit!”I raised both hands in agreement, hoping a few drinks would help me clear my head.However, Ivanna drove us to the Newturn Bar, which I was apprehensive about. She ordered two cocktails for us, and I gulped one down without knowing what it was. Then I signaled the bartender for another.“Hey, take it easy. Do you want to get wasted?” Ivanna raised her voice as she leaned on the bar. “Savor the taste.
Beyond the Divorce Chapter 132 Coming to the Rescue
I felt a rush of wind, startling me. I covered my head and screamed, but the expected pain never came. Instead, I heard a loud cracking sound.It shocked me halfway sober. Frightened, I turned to see the man crashing onto a table. Atlas was standing by our side, guarding us.The man struggled to his feet and lunged at Atlas. I screamed, and Atlas immediately punched the man. He howled in pain.Despite the many stares, Atlas acted promptly. He grabbed my arm without a word and strode toward the exit. Ivanna picked up our bags and followed us outside.“You’ve got some nerve coming to a place like this and drinking,” Atlas said with a growl.I trembled from my close call, but Atlas’s menacing face sent shivers down my spine. He had been all smiles in the restaurant. Why did his face change when he looked at me?“Chlo, are you okay?” Ivanna checked on me, then looked at Atlas. “Sorry about this. It was my idea to come here.”I managed a faint smile, thinking there was no point dwe
