Chapter 257 Thorough Analysis

I returned to the company and found that everyone else had left for the day. Meanwhile, Ryan waited for me in his office. As I walked down the corridor, I ran into Grayson. I invited him to join us in Ryan's office.

I explained what Atticus had told me and handed the contract to Ryan. After he finished reading it, he passed it to Grayson. The latter also expressed that this contract likely had secrets.

"Perhaps we should be cautious and politely decline," I looked at them and said, "We just started to see improvements and shouldn't take unnecessary risks."

Ryan chimed in, "I think it's worth considering since Atticus said we can set the conditions. I think it's an

opportunity for us."

He leaned into his chair and pondered momentarily, continuing, "I'll talk to him tomorrow. Since risks are involved, we should prepare conditions and a stop-loss strategy. Atticus mentioned the conditions are negotiable, so we shouldn't hold back."

Grayson added, "He helped us significantly when we needed it the most. He's asking for our help this

time."

"Help can come in various forms and for different reasons. In business, we must consider our interests and help Atticus. Still, we must carefully decide how we'll do that," Ryan explained, showing his experience.

Grayson agreed with Ryan's perspective.

So, the three of us discussed the details and decided that Ryan would be the one to negotiate the conditions with Atticus. Although we decided collectively, I couldn't help but feel uneasy. However, the two were confident that Atticus would accept the conditions.

After finalizing our decision, we prepared to leave the office. Suddenly, my mother called and told me she had prepared dinner and invited Ryan to join us. I also invited Grayson. After all, we had just finished work

and needed to eat.

When we entered the house, we saw Ivannana and Lauren there. They had almost finished cooking the

was like today. I almost got trampled Atl-She didn't even finish saying

I calmly gave her a look. "I saw you there."

"Ah... You were there too?" Ivanna looked at me in surprise. "How'd you end up there?"

"That's a public place, isn't it? I went to buy some clothes for Ava yesterday, but they were too small. I went to exchange them today, and it turned out that your event was happening there." "Harmony's so lucky. Do you know how much she'll make from this endorsement? None of the top-tier celebrities can even compare. Now she's even more arrogant," Ivanna sounded disdainful. "Didn't you say she's on the decline?" Lauren questioned.

"Don't put that on me. Harmony's assistant told me Atlas hadn't contacted her privately. It's obvious Atlas is just putting on a show." Ivanna was quite confident. 'Even today, Atlas posed for photos in the jewelry section, but he left as soon as the event ended.

"Everyone thought he'd have lunch with Harmony, but he took her somewhere and left halfway. Rumor

halfway. Rumor

has it that Harmony was furious."

While Ivanna described the events, I maintained a calm facade. However, I couldn't help but feel a sense

of satisfaction

"Atlas is so

unpredictable. Why is he promoting her and then ignoring her? Isn't it strange? What kind of man does that?" Lauren questioned, looking at Ivanna skeptically.

I also wondered the same thing. Atlas might've tried something with Harmony and realized she differed from Annalise Still, he didn't seem to worry about the public knowing. Wasn't he worried about provoking Celine, or was he doing this intentionally?

I knew I couldn't compare to Harmony. I was a divorcee with a child, not a high-profile celebrity like Harmony. So, I wondered if Atlas did all this to attract Celine's attention even more.

dea suddenly struck me Could Atlas's grand display of a rumored relationship with Harmony intentionally divert Celine's attention? Still, how would Celine handle Harmony? Would she assign omeone to follow her as she did with me?
