I looked at him incredulously. "Why are you saying this? Can you stop hiding things from me? I'm not a child!"
"I haven't hidden anything from you." He reached out, wrapping his arm around me. "They've caught the person, but it was an online transaction, and the identity of the other party is unknown."
"Unknown identity?" I questioned.
Atlas assured me, "But it's not Liora."
"She's ruled out!"
"Yes! She wouldn't be able to find such a person so quickly," Atlas said confidently, "There must be someone else involved."
I fell silent. Someone else?
He pulled the blanket up over me. "Get some sleep, hmm? Whoever he is, anyone who harms you won't have an easy time."
"Did you already know that Oliver was seriously injured?"
"The position and depth of the knife were clear at a glance," he answered.
"So... they intended to harm me?" I muttered. "Do you think the person that kidnapped my dad will…"
My mind was spinning. I didn't hold back my questions.
"They won't touch your dad until they get what they want. Don't worry."
Atlas's answer was always reassuring.
I closed my eyes, forcing myself to clear these thoughts. I really needed some rest. Otherwise, my energy wouldn't hold up. The next events were still uncertain.
As the plane took off, I fell asleep. I was truly exhausted.
