When I heard Atlas's words, I abruptly turned to look at him. He quickly adjusted my head and continued to blow-dry my hair. "That's right!" Atlas answered confidently, leaving me a little puzzled.

With a hint of unease, I asked him, "How did your grandfather find out about our marriage?"

"I'm sure he has some people working for him. It wouldn't have been that hard to dig up this information," Atlas replied simply.

It seemed that the old man from the Pierce family wasn't completely confined to their ancestral home. He still had some control over business outside the home too.

"So does that mean Celine knows about this too?" I said. "I didn't expect your grandfather to make the first move. I thought Celine would be the one to take action."

Atlas's fingers combed through my long hair as he blew it dry meticulously. It was a pleasant sensation.

"It doesn't matter who knew first, especially for me. The so-called Pierce family members currently have no say over my life and certainly aren't qualified to be my master. They'll find out sooner or later. I'm Louis Pierce's son. I'm not related to David," Atlas said firmly.

I understood that Atlas harbored no emotions for David.

"So, what do you think your grandfather will say when he meets me?" I inquired.

"He knows about my dad's friendship with Rory. It's just a reminder to me that I haven't completely unraveled the events of the past," Atlas explained. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
