Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom
Chapter 605 Well-informed

The chaos in my mind made it impossible to focus on anything else. I grabbed my bag and told Carol I was going to ATL Empire. I had to find Atlas and get some answers. I needed to know exactly what Atlas was hiding in this tangled web.

However, when I arrived at ATL Empire, he was nowhere to be found. Apparently, he had gone to Rivendell.

I called him right away, but on second thought, I realized this situation would take some time to unravel. It wasn't something that could be clarified in a brief phone conversation. Forget it. I hung up the phone and decided I would ask him when he came back.

I dialed Lauren's number instead to check if she had arrived. I was concerned about her emotions from last night.

After a few rings, she answered. "Why are you calling so early? Are you worried about me?"

"What do you think?" I replied.

"Please, Ms. Chloe, I'm already studying!" Lauren teased with a lingering tone, sounding quite cheerful.

Hearing her voice, I couldn't help but smile. It seemed I worried too much. Atlas was right-she was indeed resilient.

I asked, "Where are you now? ATL Empire?"

"Yes! Don't you believe me?" She questioned me with a hint of doubt. "Am I that unreliable? Mr. Atlas personally arranged this excellent learning opportunity! I'm basking in your glory!"

I chuckled and was about to tell her I was also at ATL Empire. However, on second thought, I refrained. She was busy studying, and I didn't want to disturb her.

I held back what I initially wanted to say. "Okay, I was just checking in. Focus on your studies!"

"You, where are you?" She asked.

My adaptability kicked in, and I quickly replied, "I was thinking of going to the hospital to see Trinity. She should be discharged in a few days. Bye!"

"You're truly a saint, always busy saving sentient beings. Go ahead then," she said before hanging up the phone.

I raised an eyebrow, looking at the phone in my hand. I shook my head and headed downstairs.

Now that I was at ATL Empire, everyone treated me with utmost respect. Their gazes felt like searchlights, making me extremely uneasy.

At the hospital, Trinity was awake

when I arrived. Seeing me enter, she motioned for the nurse to raise her bed and reproachfully asked me,

"Where did you go yesterday? Is this how friends behave?" Content

I smirked. "You're quite well. You've already turned the incident into a friendship argument. Don't I have other things to attend to?"

She rolled her eyes. "Of course, engagement is a big deal."

Hearing her mention the engagement, I blushed and laughed. "You know about that too? You're like a private investigator in the hospital." "The entire city probably knows. How can I be your friend if I don't?" She asserted dominantly.

"That's true! But, I had no idea beforehand!" I hurriedly explained.

"Is Mr. Atlas's injury better?" Trinity asked, "I didn't get to thank him in person."

"It's much better. The bullet just grazed his arm, so the injury isn't severe. Don't worry about it," I reassured Trinity.

"For him to rush into the Jitador's organization for me, I know how dangerous that was. I'm well aware of it. There's no need to be humble. He's fearless and meticulous." Trinity glanced at me. "He has real courage."

I felt a sudden pang of guilt. I didn't know Atlas had gone directly to the organization's headquarters in

Jitador when he returned. It was no

wonder he got injured.

I should have known as his fiancee, and my negligence made me feel truly inadequate. The 36 hours he spent there turned out to be quite thrilling. "Why are you daydreaming? What are you thinking about?" Trinity noticed I wasn't speaking and nudged me.

I was startled, snapping back to reality.
