I had trouble falling asleep after thinking that. I had to go to the company today. After signing the second phase of the Rivendell project with Atticus, I didn't have a chance to discuss things with Ryan.I needed to plan. I decided to go with Atlas if he wanted to return to Nocturnia to see his grandfather.Even if his grandfather didn't want to see me, I wanted to go with Atlas. After all, the allure of that home in Nocturnia was too strong for me.Everything there was described to me by Atlas, but I had no memories of it at all. I always hoped to return there. Perhaps it would trigger a memory.People who hadn't experienced this couldn't understand the feeling of missing a piece of memory. It felt like leaping across a void, and suddenly, I was back to when I was fifteen.Every time Atlas described those scenes to me, it felt painful. Those ten years were exactly what I wanted to remember because it was the sweetest and happiest!There was my real mother there. My entire chil

"Maybe heaven made a mistake. Originally, I should have been your daughter!" I looked at my mom sincerely and said.I said this because Grandma Rose had gently reminded me to take good care of this mother who reared me, to make her feel comfortable in my home, and never to cause her heart to be uneasy.My mom had meticulously cared for me for the past 20 years. There was nothing I could fault her for.Sometimes, I even thought that if none of this had happened, I would never know the secret of my identity. After all, my biological mother left me too early. Since there were regrets, I couldn't let there be any more regrets.My mom immediately stopped me, "Chloe, you can't say that. To have a daughter like you, even if it's just for a day, is the blessing of your father and me. Moreover, we've been mother and daughter for so many years, I'm content.""Mom!" I said in a spoiled tone, "What do you mean 'content'? Without you, would there be me?""Alright, alright. Let's eat." Heart

I briefed Grayson about the situation with Fred Myers and his brothers. I said, "I want you to look into the Myers family's past and find out more about Fred Myers. Next, we need to get Fred Myers to fall into the trap himself."Grayson immediately understood my meaning. He nodded and said, "Understood. I learned many things when I was in Solaris last time. Don’t worry. It won’t be a problem to make him behave from now on.""This needs to be handled meticulously and naturally. We can’t have any trouble from this in the future,” I cautioned Grayson. "Only the two of us need to know about it.""Understood."I trusted Grayson. I was sure he had dealt with such matters before."How's progress in Solaris? Your focus should be there in the future. I'm not comfortable with anyone else intervening, but I’ll be more at ease with you there. I'll assign someone to take care of things here." I instructed Grayson, "They’re close to the Beringer family. You know what I mean."Grayson nodded, a

Noah Kent knew we were here and came to the construction site to meet us in person before we could ask to see him.Noah was proud as he looked at the emerging New Bourdamun. He had built this single-handedly during his tenure. Anyone would feel proud looking at the new city rising from the ground.I discussed the matter of Old Bourdamun with him. After thinking momentarily, he suggested that both companies join forces and invite their senior leaders to a project briefing.I had no objections to this proposal, and Ryan and I agreed.Noah promised to schedule the meeting and send out invitations to the senior leaders.I readily agreed. After all, once the negotiations were successful, it would be another achievement for Noah. I would consider it a win as long as we secured the project. That was the result I wanted.As for the process, I was happy to extend this favor to him.So, we quickly reached an agreement on the plan.Noah invited us to lunch, but I declined. I felt it was b

"What's going on?" I snapped out of my thoughts and looked outside, only to see a motorcycle parked by the road, with a man standing next to it.Tris said, "It seems he has something to say."Naturally, Tris knew Arton. They had met during their time in Bermuda and had worked together for several days."Arton!" I murmured softly. I quickly reached out to open the car door. Arton got in."Ms. Chloe!" As soon as he got in the car, he said, "Sorry for the intrusion.""No problem. Go ahead." I was sure Arton must have had a reason to block my car."Denton hasn’t been seen at the construction site. Our site is too large and not centralized. I tried to contact the other points, and it seems several recruits have been dispersed over the area. There might be loopholes, "Arton reported."I’ve made some inquiries and discovered that several newcomers have been wandering around. I'm afraid this is intentional, but I can't control them."Arton said with certainty, "I spoke to my contact, t
