Beyond The Divorce - Season 5 Episode 8

“Yeah, Rory is a man of integrity. Take your time going through these,” Grayson instructed, concerned about me. “Chlo, you should rest for a while. I have an appointment to attend.”

I asked him, “Oh, I need to go to Solaris in the next day or two. Do you have anything on your schedule?”

He replied, “Well, if possible, I’d like to go with you. I want to introduce you to a client, I think you need to

meet this person.”

“Okay, I’ll tell you when I plan to leave, and you can tell me more about this person on the way,” I said to

Grayson.

Just then, Carol arrived with the painkillers. Seeing Grayson, she said, “There’s a report you need to sign.”

“Sure.”

“Oh… Chloe, we have an appointment with ATL Empire at 10 o’clock. You rest first, but we should leave

soon,” Carol reminded me.

I quickly took the medicine from her, swallowed a pill, and drank water.

Grayson told Carol to bring the report for him to check. After signing it, he handed it to me. “This is the

finances for Hartz Construction. Chloe, you can take a look.”

Carol checked the time and said, “Chloe, we should leave now.

I locked all the documents in my drawer and then grabbed my bag. Then, I left the office with Carol and Grayson, heading straight for ATL Empire. On the way, Carol asked, “Chloe, are you feeling better? You

don’t look well.”

“I’m fine. Maybe I just didn’t get enough rest,” I casually replied.

“In that case, go home and rest after signing the contract,” Carol suggested, “I can take you to Arkadial Spa to relax. You’ve been too tense lately. Your injury is only healing, yet you’re running around so much.

“You must take better care of yourself. Ryan is doing great now. You still have us, so please take it easy.”

Carol understood me well. We had even developed an unspoken understanding. She genuinely cared for

“Carol, I’d like to take it easy but can’t. It might be better if our operations are on track, but it’s a critical

time for Tanum Corporation, Ryan’s taking care of everything, and I must support him. We’ll be fine once

we reach the top.

Carol sighed, “Chloe, I know you. Even if we reach a higher level, you will still be hands–on. You just don’t

know how to enjoy life.”

I could only smile bitterly.

Everyone waited in the small conference room when we arrived at ATL Empire. The new head of the project team, Bruce Chapman, was enthusiastic. I hadn’t met him before, though. He told his secretary, Inform Mr. Atlas about Ms. Chloe’s arrival,”

My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn’t help but wonder why Atlas also had to attend. Soon after, Atlas

entered the small conference room with Dylan.

He went straight to the main seat and glanced at me. He furrowed his brows and asked, “Ms. Chloe, are

you unwell?”

I instinctively rubbed my temple and replied, “I’m fine. It’s just a headache. It’s not a big deal.”

He looked at me severely, then told everyone, “Let’s begin.”

Bruce was efficient as he explained the naming rights we were preparing for as part of our long–term cooperation. He also put forward several stringent requirements. I carefully analyzed each point, and it seemed that there wouldn’t be clashes with Tanum Corporation’s operations.

Then Atlas also discussed this contract with me and explained the requirements and areas that needed. cooperation. Finally, both sides confirmed and signed the contract. I sighed in relief after finally settling.

this matter.

It seemed my headache was terrible. When the meeting ended, Atlas said, “Ms. Chloe, come to my office.

I need to confirm something with you.”

Afterward, he got up and left with Dylan, giving some instructions to the latter.

I was puzzled, wondering what Atlas wanted with me and why we couldn’t discuss it here instead of

going to his office. Still, he seemed severe.

I whispered to Carol, “Wait for me in the car. I’ll be right down.”

Then, I left the small conference room and went to the top floor via the elevator. I realized Atlas’s

secretary was not at the door when I arrived. I had to knock, and I heard Atlas’s response from inside. When I was about to enter, someone pulled me in further and embraced me.
