I observed his face closely, noticing his growing seriousness. Clearly, something important had occurred.
Once he ended the call, Dylan glanced at him in the rearview mirror and asked, "Any developments?"
"Yeah," Atlas confirmed.
Dylan immediately inquired, "Should I get Nick to bait them?"
Atlas thought momentarily before responding, "No, let's wait and keep things slow. Let her reach in a little more."
"Is Gavin ready?" Dylan seemed somewhat concerned.
"Absolutely," Atlas affirmed without hesitation.
I was puzzled and didn’t understand their conversation.
But I didn't ask. I speculated that if they were involving Gavin, it was related to the situation in Gerby.
Besides the newly opened Arkadia Plaza i n Gerby, there was also that business about the mineral resources.
Was someone trying to make a move on that?
Before I could solve the intricacies of the issue, Atlas's phone rang again. He glanced at the screen, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Looks like your wish is about to come true."
I didn't quite grasp his meaning.
He slid his finger across the screen to answer the call. His tone was casual as he said, "We’ll be there tomorrow. We’re pretty tired today.”
Then he hung up and looked at me. "It's an invitation from Celine."
"To the Pierce family’s residence?" I asked.
Atlas nodded. "That came sooner than I expected. Looks like she's very confident."
When I heard that we were going to the Pierce family’s residence, I felt unexpectedly excited and looked forward to it.
