Beyond the Divorce

I nestled back into Atlas's embrace, muttering, "If that's the case, finding the mastermind behind all this should be easy."

"How so?" Atlas lowered his gaze affectionately, bending down to kiss me.

I responded willingly, then said, "Not many people know about the snake tattoo."

He laughed, pulling me into his arms and patting my back. "When you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes."

Atlas knew my thoughts and who I suspected.

"Before you came back, I called Johnson. He mentioned that Liora hasn't been to the company much lately. It seems she's still shaken up after the incident in Bourdamun," I informed Atlas, patting his chest. "Sleep now. I'll make her even more shocked," Atlas said, teasingly asking, "Can you sleep?"

I quickly snuggled into his embrace, saying, "I'm already asleep."

He immediately flipped over, pinning me beneath him. "But I'm not tired at all."

I burst into laughter, and he wasted no time making his move.

Shortly after I entered my office the next day, Lauren walked in, exuding a confident aura with her short, stylish haircut.

She rushed to my side and said, "Guess who I ran into last night?"

"Who?" I looked at her curiously. She couldn't wait to tell me this early in the morning. It must be something big. I knew her too well. She looked at me mysteriously, saying, "Liora!"

I immediately rolled my eyes at her. "You're excited just because you saw her?"
