Beyond the Divorce

I looked toward the source of the familiar voice I thought I would never hear at this moment. I was shocked when he appeared. Atlas approached in his well-tailored suit with the stern-looking Dylan behind him. The once-arrogant Kimberly now looked dumbfounded. She gawked, captivated by Atlas's presence. She had forgotten everything while staring at him.

Atlas extended his hand to me, and I instinctively held it. His expression was cold as he said, "We don't have to continue this discussion if it's unpleasant. No one can stop me from doing what I want." Martin was initially stunned by Atlas's sudden appearance. He only returned to his senses after seeing Atlas pulling me into his embrace. Martin's expression darkened, and a standoff seemed imminent.

"That statement might be exaggerated, sir." Apparently, Martin didn't recognize Atlas. "No one has dared to speak so boldly in my presence."

Atlas's reply was imposing, "You'll hear it a lot more from now on."

Meanwhile, Chad whispered something to Martin. Immediately after, the latter looked terrified as he stared at Atlas in disbelief.

Kimberly couldn't help but look at me in Atlas's arms. She angrily exclaimed, "Who is he?! Why does he treat you so well?!"

I almost burst into laughter, wondering if she was even using her brain.
