chapter 237 Meeting Once More
My heart raced, but I stayed tough. I replied with the same emotionless tone, I'm sorry. I don't know what
you're talking about."
"Do you have any questions for me?" Atlas continued to scrutinize me.
"None." I stubbornly responded,
"Are you sure?" His gaze turned cold.
"Mr. Atlas, if you called me here to make things difficult, I apologize, but I'll take my leave." I didn't have the time to confront him here. It would be meaningless. I'd rather be with my family. His eyes narrowed. "Do you want to avoid me without clarifying your doubts?"
Atlas's words struck a chord with me. It was as if he could see through me. I guiltily lowered my gaze, not allowing myself to have further delusions for this man, I couldn't let him trample on my pride like this. While Atlas had fun with Harmony, I was alone. It was horrible, and I wondered how he differed from Matthew. I might have lost value in Atlas's eyes, but I would never disrespect myself that way. He could see th
through my emotions and thoughts, yet he continued to flaunt his affairs. I wondered what Atlas's true intentions were or if he cared about my feelings. Was my presence insignificant to him?
I realized he had trapped me, losing sight of why he was interested in me in the first place. Regardless of whether I was a stand-in, I couldn't afford to play around. Still, I had to be cautious of the rumors, so it was best to distance myself from him.
I didn't want to endure another heartbreak. After all, I had just escaped Matthew.
Atlas smiled and asked, "Would you not want to see me anymore if we didn't cooperate in business?"
I blinked and forced a smile. Since Atlas put it that way, I should speak my mind. "Yes."
I instinctively stepped back and clutched my bag. I remained calm and said, “Mr. Atlas, emotions have clouded our relationship. My low spirits might have misled you, but we shouldn't have been this close." I gulped and took a deep breath, "I'm not worthy of you and don't want to play games. I'm Chloe, not...
anyone else. You must know I'll never be what you want. Everything has been a mistake."
I almost said Annalise's name but swallowed it.
Atlas crossed his arms, waiting for me to continue. "You're ATL Empire's CEO and have the final say. I'm fine if you no longer want to continue our collaboration. You can retract your involvement in the ongoing was post hi affect our business relationship."
