Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom

I could imagine the state the people behind us were in.

In the car, Atlas glanced at the time and said to me, "Shall I take you to see Anya?"

"Really?" I instantly got excited and looked at him joyfully.

Atlas indulgently said, "I actually need to meet someone there too."

I playfully slapped his leg. "I thought you were taking me to see Anya. So you had business there too," I said, teasing him.

He reached for my chin, his handsome face approaching mine. "What? Any objections? I can choose not to go," he said indulgently.

I giggled happily, leaning into his embrace playfully. "No, I want to go! It's been so long since I've seen Anya. I want to check on that girl and see how she's doing." Atlas lowered his head and kissed my lips greedily, then asked, "So, am I still doing this for myself?"

I dodged and giggled. "Well, technically, yes. There's clearly some business you need to attend to, but you insist on saying you're accompanying me to see her." "Then I'll just accompany you to see Anya. Any objections now?" Atlas said affectionately, indulging my ribbing.

"Haha..." I laughed and pounced into his arms. "Can you stop teasing me? I ate so much today."

"Why are you so happy? Did you see someone you liked?" Atlas scrutinized me, pretending to be sour.

I side-eyed him, saying, "You were very extravagant. You ordered such a huge lobster for every single person."

I gestured, making a pointed remark.

He narrowed his eyes., "I was afraid you wouldn't have been able to eat any, so I just got everyone their own.
