Beyond The Divorce - Season 7 Episode 86

I looked at Atlas’s expression with some concern.

He frowned and continued, “Later, when we found the elderly witness and investigated Clark in detail, we discovered that Clark left ATL Empire after all these events took place. As you know, ATL Empire was still under Celine’s control at that time.”

“Are you suggesting that he might have had a fallout with Celine, and no one got what they wanted in the end?” I speculated.

“We found some strange clues during our investigation. At one point, Celine was actively looking for him and even issued a killing order against him. That was strange. Why would Celine want Clark killed? “Clark must have known something or been involved in something,” I replied.

Atlas nodded. “There must be some kind of secret here. It’s just like when lan was killed. Our people followed these clues and discovered that Clark was acting suspiciously. His son, Jarvis, also escaped with him.”

“It seems there’s another factor at play here,” I said, sinking into thought.

“That led us to think that Clark is connected to this. During their escape, it became evident that father and son were not in the same place from how often they communicated with each other.

“And when Clark was on the run, his mother and sister inexplicably disappeared. Now, it’s likely they’re no longer alive, which made Clark flee like a startled bird. That explains his current condition. He wasn’t like this before.”

As I listened to Atlas, I couldn’t help but think of the Clark I had just seen. He must be tormented by extreme fear, or found no other ways to support his mental state. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so emaciated.

“Also, Jarvis has been spotted around Cirencester. His strange appearances indicate that he must have support there. Your father, who disappeared at that time, is probably unable to act for some reason or is being held captive.”

The car had reached its destination, and I knew we were back in the underground garage of Pleca Park.

Atlas didn’t rush to open the door. He sat silently in the car then said, “When I interrogated them today, it was clear that he had fallen into Jarvis’s hands. But he must still be alive. If he were dead, Jarvis would have left that area.”

As I heard Atlas’s speculation, I felt like there was a huge hole in my heart. It felt painful and empty.

Atlas turned and tried to reassure

me. “Don’t be sad. We still have hope

as long as he’s alive. Once we bring

him back

I’ll do everything I can to

treat him. He will get better. I’ve

already started contacting the best

experts.”

His words comforted me a little. Without Atlas, I might never get the chance to see my father again. He was my only blood relation left in this world.

“Thank you, Atlas.” I looked at his sharply defined, handsome face. I didn’t think he would never give up, even if we were worlds apart.

“You silly girl, we’re family.” He gazed affectionately at me, then suddenly cupped the back of my head and pulled me toward him. Then be kissed me greedily for a while.

After our passionate moment, I asked him, “Wasn’t anyone suspicious when Chelsea left the Pierce family residence?”

His recounting of events was thrilling, but the justice system worked meticulously, leaving no room for escape.

I did not expect Chelsea to have escaped their watchful eye alive with such crucial evidence.

“How did she manage to escape from the devil’s lair?”
