Chapter 108 A Heavy Task

I went to ATL Empire the following day. However, I didn’t see Atlas, but Nick signed the

contract with me instead. He shook my hand and said, “We’re looking forward to working

with you.”

“Keep your projects coming, all right?” I said with a smile.

With the contract signing, I officially launched my company, Hartz Construction. Although I

had Urban Builders‘ support, I felt nervous about taking on such a massive project as my

first. However, I was

thrilled because I could provide for myself and Ava.

Soon, the news spread throughout the industry, and everyone wondered who was behind

stepped out of ATL Empire, I hesitantly called Atlas. After all, I couldn’t have signed the

contract

without him. The phone rang for a while before he answered huskily, “Yes?”

He always spoke little and bossily, so I lost my mood to speak. Suddenly, he grew anxious

and asked, ”

Chloe?” 1

“I–I…just wanted to tell you that I signed the contract with ATL Empire,” I tried to sound

spirited, “I didn’t

see you here, so I thought I should call you.”

“You miss me, don’t you?” he asked tenderly.

Here we go again, I thought. I cleared my throat and said, “Why aren’t you at the office

today?”

Although I couldn’t see his face, I became nervous and tried to change the subject.

“I’m in Astronia,” he said.

“Oh, when did you go abroad? When are you coming back?” I was surprised because he

never told me he

was going overseas. No wonder I hadn’t seen him since we parted ways at the hospital.

“Do you miss me or not?” he asked.”

“Why would I miss you? I just wanted to tell you that I signed the contract,” I tried to

sound serious.

“How can I not know that? Why can’t you just admit that you miss me?” he said

impatiently.

“Should I just hang up?” I said casually.

“Come on. How could you just hang up after flirting with me?” Atlas sounded clearer now.

“What the hell are you talking about?” I rolled my eyes.

“Hey, you woke me up from my sleep, and now you want to hang up?” He was slightly

upset.

Finally, I realized it was late at night where he was. I felt embarrassed, saying, “Y–You’re

right, I’m sorry: forgot you were in Astronia. Just go back to sleep?”

“Hello? Do you miss me or not?”

My heart raced. How could I tell Atlas that?

“You’re wasting my time, okay?” he sounded sterner now.

1-1 do, all right?” I said despite myself. I knew I shouldn’t have said that, but he would ask

me repeatedly if

I didn’t.

“Got it. Got to go now.” He hung up.

What the hell? How could he flirt with me and then hang up on me just like that? He didn’t

even tell me when he was coming back! Suddenly, I realized I was looking forward to his

return.

Now that I had signed the contract, I wondered how Matthew felt about it. I knew he had

nothing now. However, I never expected him to bring my parents to the apartment the

evening before the divorce trial.
