Chapter 370 Finally Making an Appearance
I didn’t interrupt Lauren and refused to believe Atlas was behind everything.
After dinner, I slept through the night. I woke up the following morning, still wondering who had visitedme last evening. Later, Grayson visited and told me Atticus had sent those bodyguards, which relievedme.
I would choose Atticus if I had to choose between him and ATL Empire. The favor I owed to Atticus was
easier to repay.
I stayed in the hospital for half a month, and the investigation concluded as expected. The authoritieshad found a convenient scapegoat. Naturally, I felt dissatisfied with the result but could do nothing.
Still, I knew the details because I was directly involved. Finally, I could put weight on my foot and walk.The doctor advised me to exercise more to aid my recovery. On the day of my discharge, Harmonycame
to my ward. 1
I was somewhat surprised. I thought Harmony would have visited earlier, yet the authorities had closedthe case. She removed her sunglasses and looked at me. She said arrogantly, “You look well.”
“Thanks to you,” I calmly replied.novelbin
I didn’t know when it started, but our conversations had taken on a peculiar tone.
Although my words seemed indifferent, they were not unwarranted. After all, Harmony’s recklessnessand
lack of foresight led to this disaster. I wouldn’t be here if she had listened to me that day.
She put down her sunglasses and scarf but kept gazing at me. She looked confused.
I chuckled and asked, “What’s on your mind? If you have questions, feel free to ask.”
She smiled and calmly replied, “You do understand me.”
“You’re flattering me. It’s not that I understand you–you’re just an open book.”
She nodded and admitted, “I do have questions.”
“Ask away.” I leaned back on the bed.
“Did you not invite me to the rooftop that day? How do you feel about Atlas? You better tell the truth,”
Harmony spoke firmly and looked at me disdainfully.
I observed her this time. I still couldn’t tell if she was genuinely foolish or just acting. It seemed Stella
hadn’t intended to hurt Harmony initially. The former probably wanted to take advantage of the foolishgirl
to deal with me.
I thought Harmony didn’t cooperate as Stella had expected. Immediately after, I realized that was false-Harmony was just an idiot.
Stella simply decided to deal with Harmony during the banquet. However, the former didn’t expect meto try and save Harmony. Harmony and I would’ve died if I didn’t react that night. Stella’s timing was off,or she didn’t expect me to stop arguing with Harmony so soon.
I had turned and walked away, Inadvertently shortening our time on the rooftop. Stella also neverexpected me to try and help Harmony. If I were Stella, I would’ve stepped back to eliminate theproblem.
If that had happened, the situation might’ve been even more dreadful. Even the thought of it sent chillsdown my spine. Ultimately, my kindness saved me.
Harmony looked like she had something to hold over me. She appeared relieved and satisfied, saying,Why aren’t you answering? You don’t have wishful thinking toward Atlas, do you? It seems you do likehim!
Her expression left me helpless. Finally, I couldn’t help but laugh.
