Beyond the Divorce

Chapter 1207 No Rejections



I was about to argue with him again when Grandma Rose stopped us. "Let's eat."

My mom quickly agreed. "Yeah. Let's talk after breakfast."

Jim promptly started serving the food, easing the tension in the air.

My dad tried to change the topic and said, "I've planted those seeds in a sunny spot, just like the instructions said."

"Were the instructions clear?" I understood that my dad was trying to lighten the mood by bringing this up.

"They're very detailed. It looks like it's a precious plant. I'm looking forward to seeing it grow." He seemed to be in a much better mood now.

Ava immediately joined the conversation. "What did you plant, Grandpa?"

"I don't know yet, but it needs a lot of care to grow well, just like you," My dad teased. "Do you want to wait for it to grow with me?"

"Yeah. I'll watch it grow with you, Grandpa." Ava said eloquently. She could sense that Arnold was different today, and she kept looking at him when she said that.

Grandma Rose talked to Anya while we ate. Anya had made great progress in learning the local language, but she still needed help handling questions that were too complicated. The atmosphere had also been tense, making her a little bewildered.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Unexpectedly, Hana was a big help. She could speak the Cirencester language fluently and acted as our translator.

That made everything much easier, and Grandma Rose asked many questions about Rory. Everyone was fully focused on Anya's explanations, which dragged breakfast out for a longer time.

I instantly understood Grandma Rose's intention. We all listened to Anya attentively until my phone rang.

Glancing at the screen, I saw that it was an unfamiliar number. I hesitated for a moment, then quickly answered as everyone looked at me. "Chlo."

When I heard Atlas's voice, I was furious. I immediately asked, "Have you arrived? Why didn't you tell me before you left?"

"I'm here. The situation is

complicated, and I didn't want you to take risks. Wait for news from me Atlas's tone was low, with a hint of apology. "I'll be back soon. Don't be mad, okay? I called you because I knew you'd worry." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

"You know what's on my mind. He is my biological father! I just want to bring him back myself. I want him to see me because my mom's dead!" I was getting emotional. "Why did you have to deprive me of that?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

This was the first time I had gotten angry at Atlas.

Atlas was silent. I quickly seized the opportunity to say, "I'm going, no matter how dangerous it is. I don't want to have any regrets."

We fell into silence. After a while, Atlas said, "Fine. Before you set off, get a new phone and message this number. I'll get someone to pick you up."

I felt relieved and smiled. "Great. I'll set off in the morning."

Arnold shouted, "Wait, let me talk to him!"

I helplessly handed the phone to Arnold. Arnold took it and said, "Are you crazy? Do you know how dangerous it is there?"

He said this with a serious expression I had never seen before.

Arnold was genuinely worried about me, and I knew it. But I wasn't going to back down.

Then, Arnold was silent for some time, probably because Atlas was explaining himself.

After a long time, he put down the phone, thinking for a moment. Then he looked at Hana and said, "Hana, I may need your help. Can you come with us? You know, since you can speak the language."

Hana glanced at me, then said, "Okay."

"I have Anya. You should go to Gerby. Beatrice..."

Before I finished my sentence, Arnold interrupted me. "She has Grayson. She's totally fine, but things are different for you. I should escort you there at the very least since you've never left the country. Are you sure you can handle it?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Arnold's serious expression made it difficult for me to reject his offer.
