Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

Chapter 187 He's a Gem

A striking young man entered the room. He seemed confident and intelligent, while his charisma made him more manly than a typical marketing manager.

"This is Grayson Newell," Atlas said, "He can meet all your needs. Of course, you're still my woman-those needs are only for work-related matters. His words made me flush. He always spoke so boldly before me. I mumbled, "What do you mean, your

woman?"

Grayson scratched his head and grinned, addressing me, "Ms. Chloe."

I gazed at him and asked, "If I wanted you to investigate something, could you do it?"

Grayson glanced at Atlas, then replied, "Anything you want, including contracts."

His confident response surprised me. It was audacious, but I liked it. Meanwhile, Atlas wasted no time

telling Grayson, "Start work tomorrow and obey Ms. Chloe's instructions. You can go home now." "H-Hey, I still have some things to ask him!" I was interested in Grayson.

"Get out." Atlas instructed Grayson in a low voice, then lowered his head to say to me, "Your time only belongs to me now."

"Yes, Mr. Atlas!" Grayson nodded and left in a hurry.

"Hey, what are you doing? I still have questions for him!" I protested, feeling disappointed. "Can you stop being so overbearing all the time?"

Atlas turned to me with a hint of self-mockery in his smile. "It seems I'm not welcome here."

I was annoyed with his response. "You're not unwelcome. You're always too busy, so I can't welcome you!

I couldn't suppress my jealousy. "You can do anything you please at my place, and you still dare say you're not welcome here? Then, Mr. Domineering, enlighten me on what I should do to make you feel welcome.

He smirked and leaned closer, whispering, "Give... yourself... to me."

Can't you be more serious, you perv!" I turned around in frustration, attempting to avoid him.

Allas scoffed, it seems I have no place in your heart Fine I won't bo

I felt disappointed as I watched his retreating figure. I finally met him, and now he was leaving. "What are you doing? If you're leaving, don't bother coming back. You always disappear without a word and act like

it's reasonable."

Atlas smirked at me and spoke sharply, "Are you sure you don't hate me?"

I was stunned, and my eyes welled with tears. "Have I ever said I hate you? You twisted my words. You didn't call me when you're back. Who's the unwelcome one here? You're busy with work and somebody else, so who am I?

Before I could finish, Atlas pulled me into a kiss. He held me tightly, and his soft words ignited my heart,

Are you trying to argue with me? Didn't I wait for you? I've been waiting for you all this time!"

His words melted my heart's doubts and grievances. I was still in a daze when he asked, "Do you want to stay here or go home?"

I replied, slightly shocked, "I want to go home!"

He chuckled and took my hand to lead me out of my office.
