Chapter 116 A Sudden Misfortune

"Dad?" I cried out in panic, with tears streaming down my face. "Dad!"

My desperate cry made everyone present feel suffocated, including Matthew, who quickly called an

ambulance.

The apartment echoed with mine, my mom's, and Ava's worried cries. Ivanna arrived simultaneously with the ambulance. She knew what had happened at a glance.

I entrusted my mom and daughter to her while I followed the ambulance to the hospital. Inside, the

I medical staff worked to provide emergency treatment for my dad. Though trembling. I found my phone

and called Atlas.

I pleaded, "Please, find a doctor for my dad."

"Which hospital are you in?" Atlas asked directly.

"Foswood General Hospital!"

"Got it!" He hung up, and I hoped my dad would pull through.

After arriving at the hospital, the nurses rushed my dad to the emergency room. I leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to the floor. My heart ached as I clutched my chest. My parents had raised me, yet

didn't repay their kindness.

I prayed my dad would be okay.

Atlas arrived with several doctors in less than ten minutes. The doctors headed straight for the emergency room while Atlas approached me and helped me to my feet. He asked with concern, "What happened? Tell me everything."

However, I was too exhausted to speak as I leaned against the wall.

At that moment, my mom arrived with Ava while Ivanna supported her. Matthew followed behind them,

looking conflicted.

Matthew grimaced when he reached the emergency room entrance and saw Atlas. "You sure are quick to respond, Atlas. How dare you say there's nothing between you two? Chloe, are you still going to make excuses? You caused all this yourself!"

Matthew tried to shift the blame. Meanwhile, my mom glanced at Atlas in puzzlement.

"Mr. Atlas, thank you for coming!" Ivanna stepped forward, her voice aimed to defuse the situation.

Atlas nodded, and I told my mom, "Mr. Atlas brought us the best doctors to help."

My mom nodded in gratitude. "Thank you, Mr. Atlas!"

Matthew stood aside and smirked, "Why thank him, Laura? He might be your next son-in-law, don't you think? Your daughter isn't innocent either!"

Atlas remained silent, focusing on my mom and Ava. Then he calmly walked away and told Matthew,"

Step outside for a moment."

Matthew followed Atlas out with a disdainful expression.

I was shocked and exchanged a glance with Ivanna. Immediately after, I chased after them. As expected, they walked down the corridor where no one could see them from the emergency room. Atlas stopped and turned to face Matthew.

Although Matthew was not as tall as Atlas, he looked bigger than the latter. Matthew sneered, saying, Atlas, your service is top-notch, always ready to assist at a moment's notice!"

Matthew smugly continued with his snide remarks, "What's happening? You're just a mere assistant, yet you're acting so arrogantly. I can't believe you're bold enough to pursue a married woman-" 1 Before Matthew could finish, Atlas punched him. Matthew crashed to the ground, cursing, "How dare you! punch me?! Do you think I don't know what kind of person you are? You're only worthy of getting the

woman I don't want anymore."

Atlas lifted him and punched him again, sending Matthew flying.

'Matthew, shut your mouth!" I shouted as I rushed over to hold Atlas back.

"Chloe, just you wait! You're teaming up with your lover to beat me up, huh?!" Matthew thundered as his

lips bled.

Soon after, a crowd gathered around us.

Standing above Matthew indifferently, Atlas said, "I've wanted to punch you for a while now. Do anything

you wish, but if anything happens to Chloe's dad, I won't just give you a couple of punches. Take my advice and get lost."

Matthew finally got up while muttering threats. Although he looked at me resentfully, I had never seen

him look so pathetic. Despite his imposing stature, Matthew dared not retaliate. He looked at Atlas and wiped the blood from his lips. Alles remained composed as Matthew muttered, "Just you walt, Chloe." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
