Chapter 227
Beyond the Divorce
Looking Out for Themselves Only I shocked everyone with my actions. Dylan had just texted me on WhatsApp, and I knew he mustâve made some progress. So, I couldnât miss the opportunity to showcase It.
âSo, we wonât trouble ATL Empire anymore,â I said, putting away my phone, âAs for what happened after we sent the package, I will investigate it thoroughly and provide everyone with an explanation.â
I caught a subtle twitch at the corner of Atlasâs lips, but he quickly gathered himself.
âNext, Iâd like to ask ATL Empireâs project team to confirm a new and accurate set of blueprints for us.
Iâll deliver them to Urban Buildersâ technical department directly.â My tone was calm but confident.
Even Celine had to comply.
However, I needed to clarify one thing, âOf course, whoever caused this issue should take responsibility for it. If Tanum Corporation is at fault, we wonât avoid it. I apologize for any inconvenience. Weâll take our leave now.â
I got up and prepared to leave with Carol.
Atlas sneered and said, âSit down.â
Although his voice wasnât loud, it was compelling. I could only sit back down.
He glanced at everyone before saying, âATL Empire wonât need you to investigate this matter.
However, todayâs meeting has opened my eyes. I never expected my company to do something so embarrassing.
âYouâre all fragile when faced with right and wrong, each pointing fingers at another. Who the hell taught. you that?!â His words were sharp, especially to those who had spoken earlier.
Everyone exchanged glances. Atlasâs imposing demeanor made them feel a sense of impending doom.
No one dared to speak as they awaited his judgment.
âI pay you well and clear your names at the first sign of trouble. It seems everyone here is adept at protecting themselves. If so, find another boss to depend on.â Atlas sent shivers down everyoneâs spines.
He looked cold and menacing as he spoke. Although everyone understood the meaning behind his words, no one dared to make a sound, They only wondered how he would deal with them. Suddenly, a loud ringtone broke the silence.
Atlas glanced toward the source of the sound and growled, âGet out.â
His voice was domineering, and the phone owner paled. He panicked and covered his phone before âDylan, find out who altered the data and punish them severely, no matter who it is!â Atlas ordered and got up to leave.
I noticed Celineâs annoyed expression. I stood up, gave her a slight nod, then turned to leave with Carol. However, I was confident that Atlas might use this incident to do something. It seemed I had played my cards right again.
I knew someone had deliberately caused all this and that it was related to the blueprints I had given to Kenzie. Still, I wouldnât just sit idly by and let anyone decide the outcome, not even Atlas.
