Chapter 333 The Trigger of the Incident
The news, to be honest, left me quite unsettled. I immediately sought out Atticus for more details.novelbin
Atticus’s tone was grave. “Yes, I just got this information and called you immediately. I hope you’rementally prepared. Be extra cautious with the projects at ATL Empire. If possible, it’s best to disengagefrom them. This way, you can cut your losses in time.”
I quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road, listening intently to his call.
“Why would they want to replace Nick?” I found it hard to believe this news.
After all, Nick had been with the Torado headquarters for so long, and his reputation was excellent..
Moreover, he had been under Atlas’s father’s leadership.
That was why he had put so much effort into supporting Atlas. Even when we first met, I mistook Atlasfor
his assistant.
How could Celine dare to go after Nick? My heart raced, and I couldn’t help but wonder if my actionshad
affected Nick.
After all, Celine was a schemer and narrow–minded.
If Nick had secretly helped me, it would have contradicted her orders. Could this be the catalyst for
Celine’s decision to replace Nick?
The more I thought about it, the more uncertain I felt. My breath became labored. This was preciselywhat
Nick had feared, and it seemed he was right.
When I went to see Atlas and was discovered by Stella, the phone call I made to him afterward had
hinted at Nick’s displeasure.
At the time, I hadn’t dwelled on it too much.
“Chloe, in the time I’ve known you, I can tell you’re capable. You’d make a good partner. So… I havehight hopes for you I don’t want you to get caught up in their mess. It wouldn’t be worth it!”
In the call, Atticus’s tone was sincere. I felt quite touched.
Although I’ve also heard about your situation with Atlas. But whether it’s true or not, considering you’renavigating this industry, it’s better to ensure your interests first! The rest…
He didn’t finish the sentence, and I knew what he would say,
Thank you, Mr. Atticus! I hurriedly expressed my gratitude
I was genuinely thankful to Atticus for this. Whatever his intentions were in making this call, I felt this
information was crucial.
He hung up shortly after. I sat in the car for a long time, contemplating.
I trusted Atticus, and since he was the source of this information, it had to be correct. I couldn’t help butblame myself. This situation was caused by my stubbornness.
1 steadied my anxious thoughts and mulled over the situation. If ATL Empire changed leadership,would it send shockwaves through the Torado headquarters?
If Celine took charge in this crisis and replaced Nick with her confidant, no one dared defy her wishes.Atlas was unconscious, after all. This would be her way of reclaiming the power that Atlas had workedso
hard to regain.
Even if she didn’t seize significant authority, it would pose a potential threat to him once he woke up.
I raised my hand and slapped myself for being too impulsive.
Why did I have to see Atlas at this critical time? If anything were to go wrong, how would I explain it tohim once he woke up?
I gripped the phone tightly, unsure of what to do. I wanted to call Nick, but what would I say?
I didn’t realize how long I had been sitting in the car until Carol called me. She had been searching forme everywhere. I realized I had been gone for too long!
Carol informed me that Ryan had returned, so I restarted the car to return to the office.
