"Yeah. The preliminary work has been finalized." I didn't hide anything from him. Since he had asked a question like that, it meant he knew the details.

We discussed sdetails of phase two of the project in San Cosbech. Since it wasn't our first tworking together, we had a good understanding of each other, and ourmunication was smooth and efficient.

"Let's sign the contract as soon as possible. I need to arrange the start date for construction on my end," he urged. "Once that's done, I can leave." "Why don't you juste back to thepany withthis afternoon? Bring your team, and we'll have a meeting right away. Let's do it today or tomorrow. I won't be in Foswood on Wednesday," I suggested.

"Okay, I'll notify the legal and project teams," Atticus agreed promptly. After I nodded, he made a call to his subordinates. Then, we finished our meal and returned to Tanum from Vanderberg Palace.

Before we said goodbye, Atticus half-jokingly said, "Why don't we continue working together like this? You handle the external affairs, and I'll handle any internal business. I'm serious about this." I laughed. "I'm glad you trust me. If you call on me, I won't refuse." I said that because I knew Atticus handled all the big projects.

After the meeting, I checked the tand realized it was tto leave work. I thought for a moment and decided to make a detour to the hospital to see Oliver before heading home.

Atlas wasn't surprised at all and calmly said, "I'll go with you tomorrow." "What?" I was surprised. I leaned over and scrutinized his face, cautiously asking, "What's wrong? Are you mad at me?" "Is there a problem?" he countered.

"Well... if you're busy, you can do ne your own thing. I can handle it myself. Besides, Arnold will be there right? This trial is different for Beatrice. I..." I looked at him, trailing off. Leven felt a little self-centered, as if I always had my reasons for everything. en.kikistories To be honest, I knew he would understand those reasons.

He wiped his just-washed hair, the jet-black strands gleaming and moist. Then he sat on the edge of the bed, put down the towel in his hand, and looked at me.

I looked into his eyes and leaned against him.

He hugged me. "I'll go with you. I need to be with you. I won't feel at ease otherwise. Your people are my people. Naturally, I'm responsible for taking care of you and protecting you, rather than passing the responsibility on to anyone else. I can't do that to your parents, let alone your siblings." en.kikistories I understood what he meant, of course. He was saying he wouldn't pass on the responsibility of protectingto Arnold.

I certainly understood him. He wouldn't slack off when it cto me, especially since everything that had happened to me.

The BZ plan was top priority for us right now, after all.
