NovelAppChapter 865 Unaware Sitting in the car, I still had slingering fear for Liora and me.
Sitting in the passenger seat, I sincerely thanked Dylan, "Thank you, Dylan! I would've had a nasty fall today if it weren't for you." Dylan softly replied, "You're welcome. It's what I should do." I looked at Dylan incredulously and asked, "How did you know she would push me? I had no idea she was behind me." Dylan immediately explained, "When I brought the car over, I saw her turn around and rush toward you from behind. Her footsteps were getting faster, and I had a premonition that she would make a move. Fortunately, I judged correctly and managed to catch you in time." "I didn't even sense her coming from behind!" I exclaimed in amazement.
"She didn't cdirectly from behind you. In fact, you passed each other closely," Dylan clarified.
I took a deep breath, suppressing my fear.

"She had reached the entrance, saw that you didn't notice her, and turned back. So, she didn't get a chance to see Mr. Atlas at the reception." I was a bit stunned. She had passed right in front of me, and I hadn't noticed. It seemed that I was really unaware.
Atlas instructed the driver to go to Amethyst Apartments. When we exited the car, he quietly spoke a few words to Dylan. I didn't catch it, and the car left the villa.
Back at home, he ledto the sofa and looked at me.
"Scared, huh?" He tightened his embrace, expressing his concern. "It was a close call." Snuggled in Atlas's arms, I did feel a bit shaken and softly admitted, "I thought I was going to fall for sure." He kissed my forehead. "I'm sorry. It's my fault." Just then, his phone rang. He softly patted my shoulder, saying, "Go upstairs and shower. Rest early. I'll be right there." I nodded and went upstairs.
My legs felt like jelly. I was genuinely scared. If Dylan hadn't caughtin time, I would have landed on my face, sharing Liora's fate. Just imagining Liora's condition madecringe.
However, felt no pity for her. What she did towas much worse than what Atlas did to her today. If le hadn't escaped her clutches, might have died many times over.
She was getting more audacious, daring to attackopenly.
After a hot shower, I felt much better. Atlas hadn't returned to the room yet, so I went downstairs for a glass of water. Atlas was nowhere in the living room.
Back in the room, sitting on the bed and drying my hair, I remembered Grayson. We agreed that I would call him later.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI grabbed my phone and dialed Grayson's number, but he was still on another call. I left the phone aside and left the room.
I assumed Atlas must have gone to the study, so I headed there. Indeed, he was making a call in the study.
He sawcoming and waved, embracingas he spoke on the phone. "Find a way to investigate this matter. Make sure to get accurate results." He hung up the phone and looked at me. I raised my head, asking if it was Grayson. He nodded.
"I called him just now, but he didn't pick up!" I said. "I was planning to give him a call a bit later." "Alright! Assign him to do something," Atlas nonchalantly told me.
After that, he held my hand and returned to the room, using a hairdryer to dry my hair.
"My grandfather just called. He...knows about our marriage and wantsto bring you to Nocturnia. He wants to meet you," he said as he blew dry my hair. I was shocked. "Your grandfather?!"
