Chapter 319 Tight Security
I entered the other car, where a refined gentleman awaited. He nodded at me but said nothing. Then,he started the car and drove toward Pleca Park.
My nervousness intensified as the moment of truth neared. I
even intertwined my hands tightly
“Don’t be nervous. Just relax.” The doctor seemed to notice my anxiety and tried to calm me. “Justfollow my lead, don’t speak, and cooperate with me.”
When we arrived at Pleca Park, the familiar ornate gate remained closed, just like when I visited twodays
ago.
However, the gate slowly opened as our car approached. We entered smoothly, and the gate closedbehind us. There was no sign of guards or heightened security at the entrance. Still, I knew thesecurity.
measures were more rigorous than they appeared.
When we reached the house, the doctor instructed, “Stay close and don’t speak. Just relax.”
I nodded, my hands sweaty. When I realized I was getting closer to Atlas, my heart pounded. Soon, thedoctor gestured for me to get out of the car. Then he opened the back door, grabbed his medical kit,and confidently approached the house door.
Although I had been here several times, today’s atmosphere felt different. It was eerily quiet, eventhough more servants were present. On the other hand, my heels clicked and clacked as I walked,which
heightened my nervousness.novelbin
For some reason, I felt a headache forming.
This time, we didn’t go upstairs. Instead, we crossed the main hall and proceeded to a wide corridor.We
continued walking until we reached a room at the far end. I noticed several bodyguards standing there.
I guessed they were most likely Celine’s men.
At the entrance, the doctor arrogantly gestured for the guards to open the door.
One of the guards gave me a sharp look. Before he could say anything, the doctor explained, “My
assistant is here to change Mr. Atlas’s bandages.”
My heart tightened at the mention of changing bandages. It meant Atlas’s injuries were severe. I almostbroke down and wished to barge into the room. Luckily, I wore a mask–otherwise, I couldn’t hide my
distress.

very private space.
The doctor gestured for me to enter a smaller room, saying, “We don’t have much time, Ms. Chloe. Ican
only give you ten minutes.”
I blinked and asked hesitantly, “Aren’t you coming in?”
“No, I secured this time for you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have needed to come here today. Make the mostof your time,” the doctor urged me to enter, “Hurry.”
I knew I had just ten minutes. It felt too short to contemplate what to do. As I entered the inner room, Isaw Atlas lying on the large bed, surrounded by clinical–looking medical equipment. I might havethought he was asleep if not for those machines.
I rushed to his side, and he appeared to be in a deep slumber. His complexion was slightly pale, andhis once impeccably styled hair was slightly messy.
“Atlas…” I whispered his name, but my voice cracked. I reached for his hand, which was still warm, likewhen he held mine.
I caressed his palm and asked, “Why won’t you wake up? Don’t sleep for so long, okay? I miss you somuch. Do you realize how difficult it was for me to come and see you? I thought I saw you yesterday,but you’re here, asleep. I wished that person I saw had been you.”
I placed his hand against my face, and my tears fell into his palm. I choked up, saying, “Atlas… Whereare you injured?”
After asking that question, I remembered wanting to check something. Immediately after, I stood upand lifted Atlas’s blanket.
