“No problem, Ms. Chloe.” The designer nodded earnestly. Ryan had brought her to Tanum Corporation
from overseas. Her name was Hana Avila, a classmate of one of Ryan’s juniors, Joyce.
She won the newcomer award in the International Interior Decoration Competition. Considering theroom
for growth in the industry, her remarkable achievement was exceptional. Her return followed Joyce’s.novelbin
After we finalized the business plan adjustments, Ryan expanded our team. Reviewing my budget, I
realized our major projects had laid a solid foundation for us. Lauren’s support also boosted
my
confidence.
I planned to visit Solaris after removing my arm’s cast to stabilize Hartz Construction’s foundation.Once the timing was right, I would merge the two sides.
Upon entering the showroom, the design and layout gave me a sense of accomplishment. Thefurnishings were the cherry on top. It was simply absurd for Harmony to be dissatisfied. I only realizedAtlas came when I entered. I didn’t expect him to be so hands–on.
When Harmony entered, she was overwhelmed by everything. Her greedy eyes showed she wasmesmerized by the exquisite decoration. She was satisfied, and I knew the issues didn’t originate from
her.
Of course, I wasn’t rushing to expose this. After all, I had already gained something out of this. Idecided on the outcome of this game within minutes. I would first play along and then react dependingon how Harmony performed.
I knew Stella wouldn’t like me benefiting from this conflict.
I looked at Harmony and calmly said, “Ms. Harmony, feel free to point out what you dislike. Ourdesigner will do a rendering on the spot for you. Then, we can discuss and finalize according to yourpreferences.”
“Okay, but my requirements might be high. It might take some patience on your part.” She shamelesslyreplied.
I smirked, curious to see how strict her demands would be. “No problem. I’m eager to learn about yourstyle.”

Seeing that I was being cooperative this time, Eloise seemed pleased. “It would have been better if itwas like this earlier, It would have saved us all the time.”
Then please, take your time.” I was too tired to argue further.
Harmony arrogantly nodded while I signaled Hana with my eyes, “Make sure to understand all of Ms.
Hana replied, “Yes, Ms. Chloe.”
She followed Harmony while holding her tablet.
I calmly stepped back and sat on the swing outside the small garden. Through the floor–to–ceiling
windows, I watched Harmony gesturing and discussing with Hana, occasionally asking Atlas for his

Atlas appeared at ease with his hands in his pockets. The scene was so vivid. Harmony seemedalmost like a charming wife eagerly tidying up her love nest with hopeful anticipation.
It was jarring, and I couldn’t bear to look. I gazed at my injured arm and reminisced about my past withAtlas. I felt like I had fallen from grace in such a short time.
Still, I refused to believe everything changed. Even if I resisted and couldn’t ask Atlas why, only hecould decide things. He didn’t even need to explain it to me. I could only sigh and let my mind wander.Otherwise, Atlas would appear in my mind.

“You’re tough on yourself. You’re always battered and bruised,” Atlas’s voice carried a mockingundertone.

“Have you forgotten what I once told you?”
“I only believe my own eyes.” I retorted coldly.
