Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

I watched as Atlas fearlessly approached the man on the bridge.

My sobs and movements suddenly stopped.I was in disbelief, wondering why Atlas would walk ahead like that.I understood Atlas’s intentions when he gestured for the others to stop.I broke down again and tearfully told Dylan, "No, don't! Tell Atlas to come back! Dylan, stop him!"

Upon hearing my cries, Dylan handed me to two nearby bodyguards.

"Protect Ms.Chloe."

As he rushed toward Atlas, two gunshots sounded, the bullets hitting the ground near Dylan.I faintly heard the burly man shouting, "Stay back!"

He warned Dylan not to approach but allowed Atlas to go ahead.

I watched Atlas’s determined and steady figure stride toward the burly man as the latter pointed his gun at Atlas.

Dylan advanced again, and another gunshot sounded.

Atlas signaled Dylan not to come closer, and I was terrified.

My beloved daughter was on the bridge, and so was Atlas.I couldn't bear the thought of losing either.

I wanted to save Ava but couldn't bear to watch Atlas put himself in danger.

Still, there was no better solution at this critical moment.

"Atlas! Ava!"

I screamed heart-wrenchingly.
