Chapter 191 Asshole
Melanie gave me a smug look as I stared at Matthew In disbelief. “He’s telling you to get lost. You and
that stupid child better stay the fuck away from us!”
glared at Matthew and turned toward the door.
“Chloe!” He called out, but I ignored him and left.
The crowd outside the office quickly dispersed as I approached my car.
I swallowed dryly as I gripped the steering wheel with shaky hands. I had never imagined Matthew could be such a jerk. It was clear that meeting them would always result in humiliation.
My phone kept ringing, but I didn’t
Ck up. I only answered the call after a while, and a gentle voice came
through, “Why didn’t you pick up?”
I broke down in tears.
“What’s the matter?” Atlas sounded anxious. “Where are you?”
I wiped my tears and told him about what happened. He said, “Come back. Let’s have lunch together.”
“Okay.” I started my car and left.
During lunch, Atlas handed me a slip of paper. “Contact this guy. He’ll take care of it.”
Then he stared at me and asked, “Why didn’t you tell me about it sooner?”
or him!
“He had the registration form. I had to look for him!”
With a stern look, he said, “And what ended up happening?”
I was stumped. Atlas was right. In the end, I still had to ask for his help.
“Next time, don’t deal with assholes like that,” he said, glancing at me as he elegantly ate his steak.
I chuckled. Matthew was an asshole, wasn’t he? “You’re busy, and I shouldn’t burden you with every little.

As we passed each other, the asshole couldn’t help but say, “Slut!”
Melanie chimed in, “I told you she was a whore, didn’t I?”
Atlas stopped in his path and glared at Matthew. “Have you forgotten your lesson?”
“What are you trying to do?” Matthew took a step back, pulling Melanie along.
Atlas glanced Matthew up and down dismissively. “You’re not worth the effort.”
He then held my hand. ‘Let’s not come here anymore. It’s distasteful now.”
Melanie snapped, “What do you mean by that?”
I just chuckled.
