Chapter 491-Striking a Deal The next day, I had just walked into the office when Atticus followed suit.

“The tea here is sourced from the Vanderberg Palace. Have some.” “You certainly have your ways. You got tea from the Vanderberg Palace. You only recently met Bella, but your relationship with her has already progressed.” Atticus’s words held a deeper meaning.
“Are you referring to yesterday’s incident?” I scrutinized his face. “For me, that was an accident.” Atticus affirmed, “I’m here because I need your help with something.” “How can I assist you, Mr. Atticus? If I can, I’ll give it my all.” He looked as if he were grappling with his thoughts, trying to find the right words.
