Chapter 210 Who Is the Mastermind?

Suddenly, blood splattered on my face, and I lost consciousness. When I finally awoke, I smelled disinfectant and saw Ivanna's anxious eyes. "Chlo, you're awake!"

I felt pain all over, especially on my face. Still, I was relieved when I realized I wasn't dead. The man with the knife got shot, and I shuddered when I recalled his knife coming down on me. If he got shot a second

later, I would have died already.

"Thank goodness you're awake!" Ivanna exclaimed. Immediately after, she ran out of the room with teary

eyes. "Chlo's awake!"

Atlas came in, and I choked back my sobs. He hugged me, saying. "Everything's okay now."

I took some time to calm down before asking. "Who did this?"

Atlas shook his head. "The leader got away, and we're still interrogating the lackeys. I want to know who

hired them."

"Who realized I went missing?" I wanted to know.

Ivanna said, "It was someone from the kindergarten. No one went to pick up Ava, and the school couldn't reach you, so Ava gave them my number. I rushed to get her, but something felt off, so I called Mr. Atlas.

"He tracked your car to Strathmore Road. Your phone and bag were there, but someone had smashed.

your car window."

While Ivanna spoke, Atlas observed my reactions.

I closed my eyes for a moment and then opened them. "Where's Ava?"

"Don't worry. My assistant is looking after her." Ivanna answered thoughtfully.

"...want to

go home," I said to Atlas. "I want to go home!"

After gazing at me, he told Dylan to ask the doctor about my discharge. The doctor said I was okay to leave since I only had a few cuts on my face. He advised me not to get them wet and prescribed some S~ᴇaʀᴄh the (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

ointment.

It was nearly 3 a.m. when I got home. I went straight to Ava's room, where Ivanna's assistant slept beside

her. Ava clung to the assistant's clothes, unaware of my presence. I quietly backed out of the room with

tears in my eyes.

Atlas sat beside me when I returned to my bedroom. He asked, "Are you okay?"

Heared into him and felt drained. I didn't know who would want to kill me. My mind was in a mess uncertainty and fear. A while later, I whispered, "I want to take a bath.'

Ill help you," he offered, but I shook my head. "No, I can do it myself."

He continued to watch me but eventually relented. "Okay, just be careful not to wet your face."

After my bath, he lay beside me and asked, "Do you want to sleep?"

"What do you want to ask me?" I knew he had questions but feared how I would react.

"Did you...see Celine Pierce today?" he asked.

"Your aunt?" I looked at him.

"Yeah." He stared into my eyes.

I nodded. "Yeah, I did. That's why I was on that road. Still, your aunt wouldn't have gone through such

trouble to harm me."

Atlas pulled me into his arms. "Get some rest. We'll find out who did this."

I snuggled against him, still thinking of what had happened. I didn't know who wanted me dead and wondered if it was Matthew. However, my thoughts slipped away, and I fell asleep from exhaustion.
