Glancing at the time, I pressed the intebutton to summon Carol. After giving her a few instructions, I told her to get Lauren, who was starting work today. I would take her out withas cover. If Melvern noticed my absence, it would not raise suspicion.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Lauren soon appeared in my office. I looked toward her. "Cwith me." I grabbed my bag and hooked her arm before heading out of the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs Lauren and I took the elevator down, she asked, "Where are we going?" "I want to see Atticus," I said.
The elevator went straight down to the underground garage. I dialed Atticus' number, but once again, there was no answer. I was puzzled, wondering why he was not answering. Was his phone not with him? Seeing that the call was a dud, Lauren asked, "He didn't answer?" "No, he didn't." I shook my head. "Con. Let's wait in the car." Lauren knewwell. Seeing my serious expression, she asked softly, "Is something wrong?" "Yeah." I unlocked my car and got in. "Atticus has probably been manipulated." "What?!" Lauren was taken aback. "What's going on?" I drove out of the underground parking lot while explaining to Lauren about Melvern coming to our company.
"Atticus has always been the one to handle the preliminary project in Rivendell. He competed with Atlas day and night for that project because he knew there was an underlying project behind it.
"That's why he stayed in Rivendell. The next thing to happen would be the true main event. But looking back, his well-laid plans might be falling apart. Also-" Before I could finish, my phone rang. I quickly stopped by the side and picked up.
It was Atticus.
I quickly answered, "Mr. Atticus! Are you still in Rivendell?" "Yes, I'm still here." He sounded calm.
"What's the situation over there?" I hastily asked, "Is everything all right?" "Is there supposed to be something wrong?" Atticus asked in return.
"I've been hearing things." I didn't hide anything. Between Atticus and Melvern, I sided with Atticus.
"Where did you hear that from?" Atticus asked.
I then explained Melvern's visit to our company in detail. Then, I asked Atticus straightforwardly, "Is Melvern's information reliable?" "Yes," Atticus answered confidently.
I felt a chill down my spine. "Does that mean it's a done deal?" "Not necessarily." "What should I do to ensure cooperation with you?".
"For now, don't show your hand. If he wishes to talk to you, talk to him. If he wants to cooperate, go ahead and cooperate with him. You don't have to considerin your decisions," Atticus instructed, "In business, focus on business.

"Aren't you at risk of losing if that were to happen?" I was anxious. No e.
matter what, the thought of betraying Atticus for the sake of business interests disgusted me. "Didn't I tell you? Handle this matter as usual." Atticus' tone was unmistakable. "You have to level with me, Mr.
Atticus. I can't betray you for the sake of profit! Besides, I can't shake the feeling that his approachingisn't all that simple. Don't forget, Liora is also in the mix."
"It's not that complicated. Currently, Tanum's reputation and status are continually rising. He may not be guaranteed victory if he finds someone else." Atticus' analysis was spot on, as expected.
"But if I accept, won't you be out of the game?" I asked in puzzlement.
"Do as I say, and you'll be fine. Money isn't what Melvern lacks, so don't hold back. The proposal won't affect me. That's our understanding," Atticus said, "Chloe, the more flawless the proposal, the better." on X
