Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

"I'm saving her life! Loak, do you think your sister is safe in the hands of your boss? Can you protect her?" Atlas looked at Loak. "If you think she's safe there, I can send her back." Loak stared at Atlas, his eyes full of conflict and fear, as he gulped.

"Your parents died at the hands of your boss. Now, both your lives are in his hands. Do you think you can endure his abuse and constant threat to you both? Or do you want to push your sister into the fire pit?" Atlas's gaze on Loak was intense.

His sister clutched his arm tightly behind him, revealing only a beautiful face.

My heart softened, and I couldn't help but reach out to the girl. "Don't be afraid! We won't harm you."

She looked at my gesture, and the translator conveyed my words. She blinked her big eyes, glanced at her brother, and then fixed her gaze on my face. Perhaps my friendly demeanor helped her relax. She tentatively sought her brother's opinion, "Loak!"

Loak looked at Atlas, gulped again, and stammered, "C-Can you really protect my sister?"

"If you help us find the man you're caring for, I'll protect you and your sister. I'll arrange a life for you here in Foswood, with your own place to stay, a job, and a salary. You'll live well, and there won't be any danger," Atlas said solemnly.

The room fell into silence. Loak was still hesitating, unsure if he could trust Atlas.

I walked over and gently took the girl's hand. She trembled, probably from fear, her hand covered in cold sweat.
