Chapter 120 Forceful Examination

For some reason, I felt warm when he scolded me.

When he started the car, I asked him where we were going, but he didn’t answer. Instead,

he pinched my chin and examined my face. I blushed and pushed his hand away before

glaring at him and the driver.

“What are you doing?”

Atlas raised the car’s partition to give us some privacy. I thought ATL Empire provided

employee benefits. It didn’t surprise me since Atlas was an assistant to someone

important. He said, ”

Show the bruises.”

“Uh, that’s okay. You’ve seen everything already!” I avoided his gaze and tried to hide my

discomfort.

However, his tone turned harsh again, “So, are those pictures fake? Will you show me your

injuries, or

should I force you?”

My breath quickened as the situation became too intimate. After all, I had bruises in

private areas that I

dared not show him.

“I-“Before I could finish, Atlas held me and pressed his hand against my back. I couldn’t

He lifted my shirt without warning, and I protected my chest, exclaiming, “Hey! You’re

I responded with a sense of resignation, “They had to vent it somehow, so I consider it my

trial. Matthew

I suffered when I exposed his pretenses. After all, I must sacrifice one thing to gain

another.”

“You’re quite understanding. Did Matthew go too easy on you? I’ve never heard of

someone defending their abuser.” Atlas was annoyed and spoke sarcastically.

I remained silent but felt him holding me closer. At that moment, I felt relaxed in his warm

embrace. I felt safe and instinctively moved in. I hadn’t experienced such trust, ease, and

reliance for a long time. Perhaps I never had that before.

I no longer cared where he took me, what would happen next, or why he did this.

Unknowingly, I fell

asleep in his arms.
