Chapter 486 Friendship of the Two Men I saw from a distance that someone was entering through the main gate. It was a figure of elegance and understated grace.

I was quite surprised. Bella, it seemed, was also among the invited guests.

This woman was truly extraordinary.

Her serene and elegant demeanor concealed an enigmatic aura that was difficult to fathom.

Moreover, she had entered alone, which suggested that she was on the guest list, and wasn’t the date of anyone.

Seemingly noticing my distraction, Atlas turned his head to follow my gaze and asked, "Are you looking at

her?" I glanced at Atlas and nodded. yes; b she's quite remarkable." Atlas gave a faint smile and didn't say much. However, I could tell from his expression that he knew Bella. He was simply too much of a gentleman to discuss someone else's private affairs.

Just then, Atticus walked over to where we were, his arm around Liora.

Today, Liora seemed to have toned down her hostility. She was leaning gently into Atticus's arm, looking every bit like a tender, dependent little bird.

It was the first time I had seen her with such a demure and unassuming demeanor. There was even a faint

smile on her face throughout, without any ostentation Atticus greeted Atlas first, "Mr. Atlas, long time no see." "Yeah, it’s been a long time." They shook hands casually, with a calmness that was perhaps the kind of indifference between gentlemen. I had seen them interact on several occasions before, including the time I had seen them leave Vanderberg Palace together.

Then Atticus nodded at me with a smile. "Ms. Chloe, congratulations." It seemed he was aware of Tanum Corporation's feat today.

I smiled lightly. "Thank you, Mr.

Atticus. Long time no see."

Liora maintained her gentle smile, politely exchanging greetings with Atlas but not interacting with me. I acted as if I hadn't noticed, feeling no awkwardness at all. Our paths were simply too divergent to intersect.

Of course, both Atlas and Atticus were aware of our discord, but they took it in their stride.

"It seems that Ms. Chloe, you're about to make big moves next." Atticus said politely, "With the strong support of ATL Empire, everything will definitely go smoothly." I laughed and replied without hesitation, "We make our own opportunities, don't we? Have you been busy lately? I haven't seen you around much." I noticed Liora's eyes, with a smile that

didn't quite reach them, fixed on me.

Her jaw tensed, and I found it amusing, It reminded me of what Harmony had said last night, especially the one about me seducing Atticus through our interaction on work matters. It seemed a bit over the top, but they were determined to pin this label on me. I knew there was no avoiding it.

However, it was just their perspective.

"Yeah, there's been quite a bit of work in the city recently. By the way, Ms.

Chloe, how did you consider the interior design proposal I mentioned last time? Let's work out a plan together sometime. We can have a detailed discussion about it if you'd like." Atticus didn't seem to be avoiding Liora as he addressed me.

It seemed that Atticus was quite straightforward and resolute, a true gentleman who couldn't be influenced by anyone.

"Sure. Ryan just finished up with his recent tasks, so I'll have him coordinate with you," I said, intentionally trying to create some distance. I felt it would be better to keep a little of that between us.

Unexpectedly, Atticus seemed unbothered by any boundaries and said to me, "That's fine, but I hope you'll be there too. Some decisions need to be made on the spot. After all, you might be more familiar with the construction materials area than Mr. Ryan.” Atticus expressed his view, "This time, | want to create a high-end city within the city itself so this has to be done by

you because I don’t trust anyone else." "Very well, since you trust me, I will certainly do my best," I nodded firmly.

After discussing matters with me, Atticus turned to Atlas, "Mr. Atlas, let's talk further." Atlas nodded slightly, and the two of them walked away. Before leaving, Atlas kindly pointed to the lounge chairs in the courtyard and said, "Why don't you sit down there and wait for me? I'll come find you later." "Okay." I understood that he didn't want me to confront Liora.

I responded with a light wave and was about to turn when I heard someone calling my name, "Ms. Chloe."
