Beyond the Divorce

Chapter 1242 Unexpected



I withdrew my cold gaze and looked towards the entrance. Upon seeing it, I was genuinely surprised. I thought I misheard, but I didn't expect to see someone I knew well stepping into the hall.

The person who entered was Stella White, who had been missing for a long time. Even Atlas's expression froze slightly.

As I looked at Stella, I felt a bit dazed. Did Stella actually call Navi "dad"?

My mind was spinning rapidly. Initially, Atlas suspected her of being affiliated with the organization, but now it seemed inevitable. Still, how did she get involved with Celine Pierce again?

What kind of existence was she exactly?

The atmosphere in the hall immediately became tense. Stella froze when she saw the scene in the hall.

She probably didn't expect the situation here to be so tense. When her gaze fell on Atlas, her eyes narrowed.

However, when he gazed at her, Atlas was already back to his cold demeanour. The profound gaze on his handsome face was like two sharp blades piercing through Stella, causing her to freeze on the spot. She had no idea Atlas would be here.

There was avoidance in her eyes, and her gaze finally settled on my face.

Today, she was dressed in a sleek black outfit with her hair tied up high in a ponytail. Her makeup was as exquisite as ever, but the slight upward curve of her eyebrows gave her a fierce and icy demeanor.

Atlas's remained silent and his gaze was fixed on her face. I also stared at her contemptuously, wanting to hear how she would explain.

With a glance at Navi, Stella's eyes shifted, and she joyfully ran to Atlas. "Atlas! What are you doing here?"

"Honey, this cousin of yours is something! She's everywhere, and no occasion is complete without her. But things have gotten a bit complicated." Before Atlas could speak, I preemptively addressed Stella. "I'm really curious, who is your real father?"

Stella heard what I had said, glanced at me with a confused expression, and grinned. "Ms. Chloe!"

"Call me Mrs. Chloe!"

I immediately interrupted her and corrected her.NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

"Oh? Does that mean you've been promoted?" She retorted.

"This position is rightfully mine!" I said domineeringly. "But, Stella, correct me if I'm wrong, isn't your father Rory White? When did he become Mr. Navi?"

She pursed her lips. "As far as I recall, Miss Chloe... oh, Mrs. Atlas, you've had quite a few stepfathers too, haven't you?"

"... Oh! Stepfather!" I sneered. "It

seems you are associated with al sorts of wicked people. You're right about one thing: you do know me

well! However, I know my biological

father is Rory White!" Content

I looked at Stella with a bit of mockery. "So I dare ask, which one of them is your biological father? Oh... and by the way, it seems you borrowed your name too?"

"Insolence!" Navi reprimanded sharply.

I disdainfully looked at Navi. "Aha! Mr. Navi, don't get all high and mighty. 'Insolence' is a word you're not worthy to say. I've been polite enough. You've imprisoned my father for so many years, so how dare you say those words to me?" Content belongs to

I looked sharply at Navi, strangely feeling much calmer since Stella interrupted us.

"The situation is so dramatic. Someone impersonating me, openly imprisoning my father, and shamelessly trying to negotiate terms here! What a despicable character," I uttered disdainfully.

"Guards!" Navi roared.

"Dad!" Suddenly, Stella exclaimed while walking to Navi's side. "Calm down! After all, we're all family! He's my cousin!"

Upon hearing Stella's words, Navi restrained himself. Stella then turned to Atlas, who had remained silent.

"Atlas! I really didn't expect to see you here!"

"It seems I should be asking you that question," Atlas said, still sitting there leisurely. His gaze toward Stella was unfathomable.

Stella froze for a moment, then quickly spoke, "Atlas! Some things are better explained elsewhere. Since you're discussing business, won't disturb you. I'll be going back to Nocturnia in a few days. Grandfather has always wanted to see you, right? We'll come back then!"
