Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 1056

Back at the hotel, I was too tired to move. Atlas bent down, gave me a quick look, then gently removed my shoes.

I rolled onto the bed with a grumble, and Atlas softly suggested, "Go take a shower before you sleep, okay?"

"I don't want to," I replied with my eyes closed.

Ignoring my protests, he lifted me up, undressed me, and carried me into the bathroom. I had no strength to resist, so I quickly showered then hurried back to bed.

After finishing his own shower, Atlas came out with a hairdryer to dry my hair. Looking at him, I asked, "Can't we get Beatrice out first? I don't want her to suffer in there anymore."

"Don't get impatient. We need to plan this carefully. If we act hastily, it might lead to a chain reaction. We can't let them figure out what’s going on. They won't stay calm for long. What happened today will put Byron on alert. I've arranged for someone to monitor him secretly and prevent him from doing anything desperate."

Atlas comforted me while blow-drying my hair. "You wouldn't want your classmate to get out and watch everyone else get away with what they did to her, right?”

"No way. Everything that belongs to her must be returned. Why does Hazelyn deserve to enjoy the Keller family's fortune? I won’t agree to it, even if Beatrice does. I've seen Beatrice's condition. She's suffering inside, chained up like a dog. Those measures are supposed to be reserved for severely ill patients, but she's just a normal person." I couldn't contain my emotions.

"Don't worry. I came here to make the authorities take this seriously and investigate it thoroughly. We can't let someone like Byron go unpunished. That would be unfair. He has no reason to be so arrogant. I believe in the impartiality of the law."

I calmed myself and said, "Speaking of which, we really have to thank Michelle. If it weren't for her and Theo's persistence in organizing a reunion, Beatrice would have been in complete darkness. She would have died in that asylum."

I mumbled to myself, then sat up abruptly. "We need to find a way for me to see Beatrice again. I need to give her hope, something to look forward to."

When I saw Atlas's lack of response, I grabbed his hand, "She's in complete darkness in there. She probably feels so helpless right now! I need to give her hope and a reason to hold on."

Atlas embraced me and gave me a kiss. "We'll figure something out. Right now, you need to rest."

I looked at him stubbornly, saying, "This is top priority. Forget about resting.”

"Okay, I'll come up with a plan." Atlas had to compromise.
