Eloise’s POV:
A notification popped up in my mailbox. I almost forgot to breathe when I looked at the documents inside.
All of it was related to a location.
“What are these?” I said as I browsed through the documents.
“I found this by chance. I thought you might need it.” Even though that was what she said, I could still hear her sigh.
“As long as you’ve decided, you can try it. I’ll always be by your side. If you need anything, call me at any time.”
Her promise touched me. However, I also realized another problem. Her voice was trembling, which meant it might be difficult to get the answer I wanted from there.
“You don’t want me to go, right?” I smiled helplessly.
“That’s right. I only saw it by chance. However, it’s only a legend, after all. No one knows if it’s really useful,” Chloe quickly replied.
“You’ll know when you see it.”
I looked at the picture I just received instead of Lisa’s documents.
I was very sure that they were Atticus and Lisa.
I should have been calm, but I was feeling angry now. My hands were shaking, my heart was beating faster, and I almost couldn’t breathe. To a certain extent, this was indeed unnecessary. After all, Atticus and I had come to an agreement.
This kind of reaction was too exaggerated.
At the very least, he did meet Lisa before he met me.
A long time ago, I only liked him, but I didn’t do anything to him. However, he did ask me to transfuse my blood to Lisa and almost took my organs for her.
Moreover, from a psychological point of view, he had abandoned me. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have felt so disappointed.
This almost killed me. What reason do I have to believe him?
I closed my eyes and tried to get rid of my gentle thoughts about Attimus from my mind. However, I realized that this would not be easy.
His agreement was indeed perfect, but he didn’t make too many rules about the mate connection. This was also a loophole that I could take advantage of.
I couldn’t let myself make any more irrational decisions.
Who knew what they had gone to do? I realized that I really couldn’t trust him anymore.
“I understand what you mean. I’ll be careful.” I jotted down the address Chloe gave me and entered it into the map.
It was not far from where I was now, so I could get there quickly. However, when Atticus was still here, it was a problem.
I hoped I could wait for this opportunity.
“But I still don’t want you to cut off the connection. You know, even this method will cause you great harm. I’m not sure about it.” Chloe sounded very worried.
I was already in a depressed state, and if this went on, I’d probably suffer even more severe injuries.
“But I have to make up my mind. I can’t allow him two reasons to manipulate me, can I?” I sighed.
“I knew you would say that, so I sent you the relevant materials. just today…”
The door was pulled open without warning. I could only hang up quickly and pretend to be listening to music.
Atticus was standing there and looking at me without any expression.
I didn’t know what he had gone through, so I continued to observe him carefully.
Earlier, I said something to Lisa that sounded like ‘he loves me a lot’ when I was nervous. If he knew about it, I thought he would be angry. After all, those things were not within the scope of our agreement.
However, to my surprise, he didn’t say anything.
I didn’t want him to know about this, but I didn’t think we needed to get back together.
But I didn’t think it was necessary. By the time that happened, I’d go to that area alone.
Fortunately, he didn’t say anything. He just turned around and returned to his room. I heaved a sigh of relief and continued to read the message on my phone. I received a new message before I could send it to Chloe.
“Are you free tonight?”
I looked at the note carefully to confirm the identity of the person.
It was Chasel.
He was here because of a recent case.
He sent me this message because Chloe entrusted him to bring me something.
No matter what, I was still very happy to have a meal with him. At the very least, this would temporarily allow me to escape from my current crisis..
