"Is the company already unstable?" Johnson snorted, "Chlo, it's not just unstable. Those who once cto Ardora with great confidence are now all acting high and mighty, eagerly stepping on Matthew. None of them are doing real work. They're all following Liora, helping her plot against Matthew." When Johnson said this, his tone was filled with anger. It was evident that he was also deeply pained by Ardora's situation. Remaining nonchalant, I told Johnson, "Gather the details and slowly settle the scores with them. No rush." A satisfied smile appeared on Atlas's face as I spoke, and he gently squeezed my hand.
Johnson continued, "Now that woman is flaunting her power everywhere, recruiting people, and raising money. She has taken stock of Matthew's projects, forcing him to relinquish control. He's completely powerless now. Liora has already manipulated those losers beneath him.
"It seems there were problems within Ardora long ago," I said.
"And it's all thanks to Melanie's ignorance and arrogance. She offended everyone below her, and now they're all eager to step on Matthew. Liora is persuading those who jointly invested to withdraw their investments." They were experiencing both internal and external troubles.

Matthew has dug himself into a big hole this time, and the company might not be salvageable. He's essentially shooting himself in the foot. All the accounts are frozen now." "Don't make a move yet. Just keep an eye on their movements. Remind Matthew to watch out; prevent her from dragging Matthew down. As for Liora... let her prance around," I instructed Johnson.
"Got it, Chlo! I'll hang up now." Atlas looked atwith a contented smile and said warmly, "Looks like my little girl has matured! She can handle things on her own!" I gave him a sidelong glance, chuckled, and said, "What little girl? My daughter is the little girl here." Then, I jokingly reminded him, "Don't forget you're younger than me. You're my little brother, okay?" "Ask anyone outside who's seen us together. No one will say you're older than me. I'm only a few months younger, so don't be so arrogant Otherwise, why would Aunt Haley askto take care of you?" Atlas said confidently. I glared at him incredulously. "Even one minute younger is still younger!" He nodded casually, indulgently saying, "Okay, okay. From now on, I'm sticking with you." Hearing him say this, I couldn't help but burst into laughter. "What do you mean, sticking with? That sounds so bad." He reached out and pulledinto his arms. "As a united front, as husband and wife, we'll be invincible.! Then, he said towith great solemnity, "We must prevent Liora from getting desperate. Don't forget to cut off her retreat. As for the Sunny family... let them in! Melvern cwith ambitions, so let him becLiora's problem now." Surprised by Atlas's words, I asked, "Do you know Melvern?" "Yes." Atlas only responded with a faint acknowledgment.
It was night when we returned. The courtyard's landscape lights were already on. Ava and Jenny were nowhere to be seen in the yard. They were probably waiting for us to have dinner.
We got out of the car. Atlas reached out, holding my hand, leadinginside.
At this moment, I took a deep breath. My feelings were complex, and I didn't know how to face my parents.
I felt like anyone would find it hard to accept everything suddenly changing one day. The people around you are no longer the family you knew. The transition was too sudden, with no mental preparation. There had to be sanxiety. Sensing my tension, Atlas tightened his grip and softly whispered, "I'm here. Don't think too much. Relax." I nodded earnestly, saying, "Okay." As we walked inside together, Atlas's face showed a contented smile, and he gently squeezed my hand. Once again, I was impressed by the depth of his love and the warmth he provided.
