Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom
Chapter 539 Going Against Stella

Just as I stepped out of the restroom, I saw Stella entering the dining room, walking toward Atlas.

It wasn't surprising; after all, on the surface, Stella was Atlas's cousin.

I hesitated for a moment, then confidently returned to my seat, not avoiding her in the slightest.

"Ms. Stella, you're up early." This time, I initiated the conversation, smiling contentedly.

She glanced at me and returned the smile, "Yes, getting off the ship is quite exciting. It's been a long time and I'm feeling a bit fed up."

Hearing her words, my heart suddenly skipped a beat. I looked at her and asked, "You had enough fun?"

She seemed to sense the hidden meaning in my words. Then she cast a glance at Atlas, who was engrossed in his meal and paid her no attention. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

On the other side, Jared remained indifferent.

Stella didn't respond to my implication and just smiled.

After finishing his meal, Atlas looked at me, "Do you want anything else to eat?"

"No, I'm full." I looked at him, "Let's go back to the room. I want to sleep a bit more."

As we were about to stand up, Arthur's secretary, Wesley, hurriedly approached and whispered something in Atlas's ear. His face turned cold, and then he looked at me, "Chlo, let me take you back to the room first."

"No need, I can go back by myself." I said and started to get up.

Seemingly concerned, he pulled me close. After explaining something to Jared and barely sparing a glance at Stella, he escorted me to the outer deck and pointed to the passage, "Go up from here."

Coincidentally, a few familiar faces saw me. They approached, asking about the events of last night. I signaled to Atlas, "You go handle your business. I'll be back in a moment."

Atlas seemed to have urgent matters to attend to and reluctantly instructed me, "Be safe. I'll be back soon."

I chatted with a few people for a while and then wanted to go back upstairs. Unexpectedly, on the fourth floor's staircase, I ran into Liora. Today, she wasn't surrounded by a crowd, just standing alone. It seemed she lived on the fourth floor.

But from what I knew, Atticus lived in the VIP area. Could it be that these two had reached the point of living separately?

She was about to go downstairs.

When she looked up, she seemed a

bit surprised. She paused for a moment but quickly regained her composure.

I greeted her with a smile, "Good morning."

She seemed surprised again, paused for a moment, and then asked me, "Are you talking to me?"

I looked around and curiously asked, "Are there other people here?"

"Why are you being so kind today?" She disdainfully asked, showing annoyance.

"Unlike you." My attitude wasn't particularly friendly either, "Have you done a lot of bad things?"

"Chloe." She looked at me, leaned slightly toward my side. I stood on the step below her, looking up at her without showing any fear.

"You better have some

self-awareness. Don't think that just

by having those people's support, you can be arrogant. Be careful, or you wouldn't even know how you end up dead."

She said these words with an extremely sinister look, and her

voice carried extreme coldness, as if she wanted to attack me in the next second.

Naturally, she was referring to the Beringer family and Atlas when she said 'those people'.

I took a step up, this time looking directly at her. The corner of my eye caught sight of Stella behind her hurrying toward us.

Liora was facing me, completely unaware of the situation behind her.

I leaned closer to Liora, deliberately feigning surprise before nodding with a smile. "Is this your warning?"

She lowered her voice with a hint of anger, "You better be careful."

At this time, Stella had neared us. I was sure she heard our exchange earlier.

I looked at her with a strange gaze on purpose.
