Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404 No Hesitation

Atlas grew greedier as we kissed. He cradled my head and prevented me from pulling away. Finally, he

released me and looked at me affectionately.

“Are you still jealous?” His husky voice returned me to my senses, and I met his eyes.

I stared at him dumbfounded as he touched my lips. He tenderly said, “Your body is more honest than

your attitude. It shows how much you crave me.”

Atlas’s shameless words resembled a

or in my s

“Stop spouting nonsense!” I retorted.

“You’re not being honest. If you genuinely despised me, as your expression suggests, you would’ve pushed me away earlier. But you enjoyed it and craved it even more. Your eyes are still sparkling. It just

proves how much you want me. Am I wrong?”

He smirked. “Would you like to try again?”

I pushed him and cursed, “You’re shameless!”

Then I reached for the car door, got out, and slammed it shut. His words angered me because I knew he

was playing with me. He just dropped off one girl and came to flirt with me. He behaved so despicably.

I stomped toward the door, but he grabbed me again. He leaned in and whispered, “We don’t have many

chances to meet like this. Why are you so stubborn?”

His breath brushed against my neck, making me freeze. A moment later, I remembered his playful words. and pushed him away again. “Stay away from me! Don’t hold me with the hand that touched Harmony. It

disgusts me.”

I closed the door, linked arms with my mom, and went upstairs. Once in my room, I didn’t bother turning on the lights. I put my bag aside and sat on the sofa, unable to contain myself. Quietly, I approached the window and looked out. I still hadn’t heard the sound of his car leaving

Sure enough, I saw his car in its usual spot. I knew he was still there. After a long time, I saw the car lights flash suddenly. It drove down the small road and gradually disappeared. I closed my eyes momentarily and licked my still–warm lips, which still tasted like him.

I recalled his words, “We don’t have many chances to meet like this. Why are you so stubborn?”

Then, I turned and smiled sadly. How could this be my resolution? I had prayed and dreamt of him for countless nights, yet everything he did for me was just a scheme. He still excluded me even if he didn’t mean to deceive me.

Suddenly, I felt empty

The following day, I called Lauren while driving to work. I asked her to find a way to get Jared’s contact information. She immediately understood my intentions

“Do you want to meet him?” Lauren asked me. “Why this sudden urge?”

“Yeah, it’s the only way to help Ivanna. I can’t just stand by and watch,” I explained, recounting what I saw between Trinity and Jared yesterday.

*Do you have anything important to do today?” she asked, “I’ll find Jared’s contact information and meet you somewhere.”

“I have to swing by ATL Empire to sign a contract. Meanwhile, you should try to find a way as soon as possible. I wanted to go to the capital, but I must meet Jared first. I have a hunch that this can’t wait. I’m afraid something might suddenly happen.”
