Atlas forcefully slammed the notebook onto the coffee table with a loud smack, saying, "The notebook is here. I want to see him." A smirk played at the corner of Navi's mouth, and the hand holding the pipe trembled slightly.

It seemed he was finding it difficult to contain himself. His urgency was palpable. But despite his apparent eagerness, he looked frustrated.

"Well? Do you have any other conditions?" Atlas stared at Navi's face, deliberately pressing him. "Speak up." Navi laughed awkwardly, retracting his greedy gaze and trying to relax.

Without giving him a chance to think, Atlas continued, "I just want to take him away today, Mr. Navi. This notebook is important to you, but it's equally important to other people. I won't let you have it if I don't see him. And... there's one more thing. I can still take him away, even without the notebook." Navi squinted his eyes slightly, and I tensed up. If he gave the order, we would be outnumbered. Without the notebook, we'd be in danger, and the swould be true for my father.

"You seem impatient, Mr. Atlas. I just wanted to meet you two today, and then we can discuss the exchange. After all, Mr. Rory has been withfor stime, so I need to... prepare." Navi seemed hesitant.

Atlas picked up the notebook and handed it back to Cane behind him.

"It seems you're not ready yet, or perhaps you have other conditions. If that's the case, we're in no rush." Atlas's tone was light and casual.

One of Navi's men who had been standing at the door immediately stepped forward, appearing somewhat impatient. The men behind him were also eager to take action.

It seemed they were truly desperate for the notebook.

I instantly felt nervous and tried my best to remain calm.

Atlas looked at the man suddenly, his sharp eyes sweeping over him, causing the young man to look at Navi immediately. Navi scolded angrily, "Back off!" The men looked at Navi. The one who had acted first said, "But..." "Back off!" Navi roared, irritated.

The men looked at each other, and in the end, they had no choice but to step back, leaving only two people at the door.

"Sorry for the trouble." Navi eased the atmosphere. "Mr. Atlas, I'm still serious about the exchange. Over the years, I've treated Mr. Rory well while he's been with me. I'm willing to return him to you. But please givestto prepare. This is very sudden, and I'm afraid it might affect Mrs. Chloe's mood.

"Let's just have a simple meal today to build our relationship. We might have opportunities to work together in the future. I really hope I'll be able to do business with you, Mr. Atlas. How about we formalize the exchange tomorrow?" Content belongs to en.kikistories"Alright," Atlas replied without hesitation, then stood up. I followed suit.

"You set the time. We can't stay for dinner today since my wife and I have other business to attend to. Please excuse us," Atlas said, taking my arm and walking toward the exit.

"Mr. Atlas..." Navi was surprised and stood up. "Mr. Atlas, are you really not staying for dinner?" "There's no need for that." Atlas refused him without hesitation.

He didn't even spare a glance at Navi, showing absolute indifference and dominance.

Navi had no choice but to raise his voice. "Kehay, see the guests off." The steward who had brought us in immediately rushed in again and gestured for us to leave. Atlas still didn't look around as he ledout. Navi's followers glared at us from both sides of the door. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesThe four of us walked out calmly, and Atlas escortedinto the car before getting in on the other side. We drove off. Only then did my heart finally settle.

Atlas took out his phone, made a call, and said only one sentence before hanging up. "He's still there." Then he ended the call.

I looked at him and asked softly, "Were you just testing him to see where my dad is?" He looked at me, smiling faintly. "Very clever. Are you hungry?" I nodded. "I am, actually." Instead of heading back to the hotel, we went to a courtyard in the opposite direction. I thought it was someone's house again, but when we entered, I realized it seemed more like a clubhouse back at home. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesQUMS The scenery in this courtyard was also extraordinary, with a large fountain and a swimming pool.

When we entered a room and sat down, Cane said, "They followed us." Atlas raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Let them be." "Navi's people?" I asked.
