Beyond the Divorce

Atlas immediately carried me back to the room and placed me on the bed. He earnestly said, "I'll help you sleep better, then you can have a good night's rest."

I knew just what he meant by helping me sleep better. Before I could object, he kissed me, and things took their course.

In the end, I had no idea how I fell asleep.

Even though I reminded myself to wake up early the next day, I still ended up oversleeping. When I woke up, Atlas had already gone to the office.

I muttered curses under my breath.

How could he have so much energy? It seemed like our bodies were made differently, with different physical conditions. He would be lively and energetic every time, while I would be left with an aching back and waist.

I started questioning if I was getting old.

After quickly freshening up, I stumbled downstairs to have a hearty breakfast. Then, I grabbed my bag and hurried down to the office.

Even with the rush, I was late when I arrived at the office.

When Carol saw me, she quickly briefed me on the happenings in the company these past two days. The company's affairs fell on me since Ryan was still in the capital.

She informed me that Melvern had come to the company looking for me in my absence.
