"I can assure you that she didn't." I affirmed confidently. "Before we came, Atlas gavereassurance." "Oh? What did Atlas say?" Lauren asked with great curiosity.

"He said that I'm the true lady of the Pierce family, and I shouldn't worry about anyone else. Of course, he was referring to Grandpa. He was afraid that Grandpa would cause trouble for me, so he comfortedin advance," I explained.

"Atlas really spoils you." Lauren sighed in admiration.

"Besides, Celine is focused entirely on Grandpa and Atlas during their discussions. She has no tto bother withanymore. That's why I say she's nervous.

"But I have to admit that she's good at maintaining her composure, pretending like nothing's wrong. Just thinking about Celine's face, honestly, I really want to slap her." "Desperation makes people do strange things, don't you know?" Lauren scoffed. "But letremind you, the more desperate she is, the more cautious you should be. Be careful of her making reckless moves and plotting behind the scenes." "But she won't have the chance to do that," I asserted confidently. "Atlas is sticking tolike glue." "I'm telling you, be careful with what you eat and drink. Especially anything from Celine's side. It's still better to be cautious." Lauren warned me.

Upon hearing Lauren's words, I burst into laughter. "Have you been watching too many thrillers?" Lauren retorted, "Just keep what I said in mind. Do you think Celine is a normal person? In my opinion, women in big families like this one need to study thrillers as training manuals. It wouldn't hurt to learn a thing or two about survival." I chuckled and nodded repeatedly. "Got it. I'll catch up on them in my spare time." "Don't just nod along. Be more careful," she said authoritatively.

"Got it. I understand." "Alright, I won't say much more. Get srest, and letknow when you're back. Callif you need anything." Lauren reiterated.

"I got it. Tell Ivanna too, so she won't pick onagain." Lauren chuckled, "She just got discharged from the hospital today. She'll cover to report tolater and I'll tell her. Bye for now." We hung up, and I called my mom to let her know I was safe.

The rain outside continued to pour, so I lay on the bed, eventually drifting off to sleep.

I slept soundly until I felt someone kissing my earlobe, causingto wake up groggily. Opening my eyes, I saw Atlas smiling at me. "Wake up, lazybones." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesI chuckled and turned over to hug him. "When did you cback? I thought you'd be back later." I saw he had already changed into casual hclothes so it felt like we were on a leisurely vacation at home.

He kissedon the cheek and pointed to the window with a smile.

Perplexed, I turned to look outside and was surprised to find that it was already dark. "What tis it?" I quickly sat up and checked my phone. It was already past 7 p.m.

"So late?" I laughed, quickly getting out of bed. "Sandy will scoldfor sleeping so much." "She won't. She dotes on you and toldnot to disturb you." Atlas got up too and knelt down to helpput on my shoes.

"But I've slept too much. I remember it was only 3 p.m. when I fell asleep." I got up and asked Atlas, "Did you have dinner?" "I promised to eat with you," he shrugged "But I waited for a long tand didn't see any sign of you waking up. Since we're truly hnow, it means you've adjusted well to being here."

"Of course not." We talked as we went downstairs.

When the nanny saw us coming downstairs, she immediately went to the bottom of the stairs, looking up at us. "You're awake?" I blushed instantly. "Yes. I slept like a log." I explained a bit sheepishly.

"Since you're home, everything's fine.
