Beyond the Divorce

After listening to Atlas, I realized that his concerns were not unfounded. Atlas was worried that Celine might harm me, so he carefully orchestrated the ruse with Harmony.

Stella used Harmony to create a commotion, intending to force me out, but Atlas would never let her lead him astray. Her actions also clashed with my plans when she pretended to be me during the shopping spree at the mall. That incident disrupted their scheme, and I managed to reclaim the items they had seized.

Subsequently, the imposter Stella resorted to a more sinister plan, attacking Harmony and ruining her face, hoping to frame me again. However, Atlas intervened before she could execute her plan.

It seemed that Stella had been relatively quiet recently, but it was likely she was preparing a major move. She wouldn't sit idly by while I enjoyed a smooth ride.

When I saw Atlas's worried expression, I asked, "On the surface, it looks Celine has stopped, but she's secretly using other people to do her dirty work. She got those criminals from Jitador to get rid of you while keeping herself clean. Once the job is done, she can claim what she's been longing for rightfully and without dispute. It's a ruthless strategy."

Atlas was silent, but his expression gradually darkened. He held me tightly, caressing my silky hair.

After a while, he spoke, "She's teaming up with an external organization, but it won't necessarily work out in her favor. Some things won't go as planned for her."

"How so?" I asked, still perplexed, looking at him with lingering anxiety.

Atlas calmly explained, "When they attacked me, the Beringer family took me in afterward. The Beringer family provided substantial support because the groundwork had been laid long before my father's death.
