Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom -
Chapter 707 The Huffman Family is Nothing
Liora was visibly shaken, and all eyes turned toward the source of the commanding voice. It was none other than Atlas. He walked into the crowd with his dominating presence. His intense gaze was fixed on me as he approached and pulled me into his embrace.
I noticed that Madison turned even paler, and she instinctively took a step back.
"You're Madison, aren't you? It seems that the Ballard family's real estate business is thriving." Atlas's eyes, sharp and piercing, focused on Madison. His words were laden with meaning.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd. An elderly man pushed through, walked up to Atlas and said with a smile, "You're a great man, Mr. Atlas. Don't lower yourself to her level. She... she's just talking nonsense."
"You feel like you're on top of the world, huh, Mr. Gary? How about you check your taxes? I heard that's under someone else's control, isn't it?" Atlas's chiseled and stern face turned icy, which caused the atmosphere to plummet.
"No... Mr. Atlas, my daughter's just talking nonsense. You..." Mr. Gary kept trying to appease Atlas.
Madison, who had previously been disdainful and arrogant, now appeared to be frightened as she looked at Atlas. Even Liora, who had been standing nearby, took a step back.
"Mr. Atlas, I'm really not... it's not me..." Madison tried to explain what she said earlier. Her eyes kept darting toward Liora.
"It is you. If it weren't for your baseless accusations, all this chaos wouldn't have happened. You're the one who started this mess." Vicky pointed at Madison, her gaze infatuated as she looked at Atlas.
"Shut up!" Madison panicked, feeling a mixture of anger and embarrassment. "That was all because you instigated it. Why are you pretending to be innocent now? You're the one who's been conspiring against her in secret..."
Liora stepped forward and slapped Madison hard. "How dare you try to blame it all on me?"
Madison staggered backward and fell to the ground. She clutched her face and said, "How dare you hit me? Wasn't it you who told me to come hold her in check? All of you... speak up, didn't she ask us to come?" She screamed at the group of people behind her.
Liora said, "Why can't I hit you? You
should remember that you shouldn't just carelessly say whatever you want. If you try to frame me, you need to think carefully about who you're dealing with." Despite the warning, Liora maintained her bold demeanor.
Gary, who had seen his daughter be slapped and accused, adopted a defiant posture. "You're no good either, Ligra! You promised me that if we tainted Tanum's name, all the unfinished projects would belong to me. Now, you're trying to turn the
truth around and pretend to
to be a good person."
Gary turned to Atlas, bowing. "Mr. Atlas... this woman has done many things. She's causing trouble for Ms. Chloe, and..."
Liora's composure crumbled. Gary was accusing her of reneging on her promise, and the situation was spinning out of control.
"Gary Ballard, you're talking nonsense!" Liora was on the verge of a breakdown.
Liora might not have been afraid of me, but she knew that Atlas's influence was formidable. He had already targeted the weakness of the Ballard family. Liora felt the pressure when Gary threatened to expose her secrets.
"I'm talking nonsense? You're the one who manipulated Ms. Chloe's bidding documents for Phase Two of Avalon Hills and wanted to use the Huffman family to deal with..." Gary continued.
"The Huffman family is nothing..."
Before Vicky could finish her sentence, Trinity walked into view, attracting everyone's attention. With her signature smoky makeup, she approached Vicky and questioned, "Wait a moment... What did you just say?"
The crowd was stunned as Trinity, known for her ferocity, entered the scene. Even the spectators did not dare make a sound as they watched Vicky retreat nervously. Liora's face had lost all color by now, and she looked at Trinity, who was inching closer to her. "Ms. Trinity, you..."
Slap!—a crisp sound echoed.
I knew the main event had just begun.
