Beyond the Divorce novel Chapter 733

Atlas remained silent, only tightening his arm around me to draw me closer.

I muttered to myself, "Does this promise hold any value? Even though I may not directly act against him, how can I distance myself from everything he's done?

"Although I'm well aware that Liora is scheming here, if he hadn't teamed up with her and stood proudly against me, how would we end up in this situation today?"

I tilted my face upward, gazing at Atlas's handsome features, and helplessly said, "On the other hand, I have to admit, Liora has quite a fighting spirit. I bow down to her tactics regarding scheming and hurting others. She's truly remarkable."

Atlas embraced me tighter, speaking softly, "Don't exhaust yourself by thinking too much. Let things flow naturally."

Worriedly, I said, "If we don't confront Liora, it's like leaving a menace behind. It's like raising a tiger. She'll come back to bite me. Do you think her intentions are solely aimed at Matthew this time?"

"It's not at all. By joining forces with Melvern, she's not just targeting Matthew but also Atticus and me."

Atlas lowered his gaze to look at me.

So, I earnestly recounted what Atticus had told me today, providing all the details to Atlas.

Indeed, Atlas seemed somewhat surprised. He frowned, pondering, "Atticus has such a secret?"

I looked at Atlas and said, "Atticus trusts me."

Atlas nodded gently, then directly asked, "Do you want to help Atticus?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry. She's constantly plotting against me. Moreover, with Melvern returning to the city this time, it's not for any good." I rapidly explained the complex relationships involved, and my expression amused Atlas.

Then he disdainfully said, "She won't amount to much. You can rest assured. Don't forget, you have me!"

I looked up at Atlas. "Deep down, I always feel a crisis approaching us. Escaping this predicament completely seems unlikely."

Atlas kissed my forehead and patted my shoulder. "Don't overthink it. Relax! At least for now, they dare not openly make a move against us. That means we still have a chance to strike first!"

"Strike first?" I looked at Atlas, a bit puzzled.
