GoodNovelDue to the impact of the explosion on New Bourdamun, even I had somewhat forgotten about Atticus.
When the survey concluded, and other projects in New Bourdamun resumed normal operations, we prepared to return to Foswood. This time, the security measures at the construction sites were significantly enhanced, jointly managed by ATL Empire, Tanum, and the authorities.
After arranging everything, Atlas and I returned to Foswood. Although there were still many things to deal with, we didn't have to spend every day at the construction site. However, as the main person in charge, I was restricted from leaving the country and had to suspend work.
I delegated all affairs to Ryan.
On the way back, when we talked about clearing the scene, Atlas suddenly said to me, "Someone has taken over the abandoned building project on Celestis Island." "Who?" I looked at Atlas and asked, surprised by how quickly things moved.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Denton," Atlas said confidently.
I was even more surprised. This was completely unexpected. I repeated in disbelief, "Denton?" My mind raced. This was getting interesting. Seemingly unrelated people and events were now connecting.
In theory, Denton was the prsuspect in the construction site explosion case. I didn't expect him to show up on Celestis Island.
"It seems like he's trying to create an alibi." I scoffed. "What a coincidence." "I'll let him have his little coincidences." Atlas's tone was disdainful.
"Have you found Atticus's whereabouts?" I asked Atlas, remembering Atticus's disappearance.
It had been several days since then, and I was getting worried.
Atlas gently patted my hand. "Don't worry." "You found him?" I brightened up at his words. "When did this happen?" "After the explosion." "After the explosion?" I was even more surprised. With everything happening here, I hadn't seen Atlas leave Bourdamun for a moment. How could it be after the explosion? He seemed to be working behind the scenes, appearing and disappearing like a ghost.
"Is he injured?" I asked. After all, he had been kidnapped. There was no way he cout of it unscathed.
"He's not lightly injured!" Atlas confirmed.
"Where is he?" I inquired.
"This matter is unknown to the outside world. Everything is being kept secret. He's recuperating in our warehouse area right now," Atlas toldcautiously.
"I didn't expect Denton to collude with them. If Atticus hadn't toldabout the Sunny family's actions that wwe wouldn't have known et about Denton's collusion with them." I huffed. "It seems these people won't rest." Content belongs to en kikistories"Our people had found sclues of sconnection between Denton and Melvern. But since Melvern disappeared, the trail went cold. It seems Denton and the Sunny family have an extraordinary relationship.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Now it seems they're trying to take an indirect approach, taking down Echelon first, then \confronting Tanum. Then, they will use Tanum to gain momentum, targeting ATL Empire, trying to uncover the true secrets brought back by Rory." Content belongs to en.kikistoriesAtlas's speculation leftspeechless.
"What's the matter?" SW I looked at Atlas and chuckled, shaking my head. "It's a multiple-benefit approach! Maybe it's related to our actions in Nocturnia!" Then, I suddenly thought of something. "So you're allowing the online discussions to continue fermenting?" Atlas didn't answer, just gently patting my shoulder, seeming to be contemplating something.
In the evening, I persuaded Atlas to see Atticus. We went through a secret passage to the warehouse area. He was indeed badly injured, indicating the other party was ruthless, intending for Atticus to give up Echelon.
Though Atticus was out of danger, he wasn't fully conscious.
"We can only wait for him to wake up before we can handle Echelon's affairs. Currently, the other side doesn't know Atticus's whereabouts and won't act recklesslyel buying us precious tfor Echelon," Atlas said. Content belongs to en.kikistories"But they won't easily give up," I sighed.
"Even if someone has already targeted Echelon's shares, without the appearance of the majority shareholder, Atticus, nothing can be done." Atlas reassured me, "Mr. Atticus has been protected by us!" Atlas was Atlas, meticulous in every detail.
After watching for a while, with no sign of him waking up, Atlas tookback to Pleca Park.
