He threw himself on the comfortable lazy couch, fuming.

Atlas, who asked his family not to be disturbed, ignored him. He continued to answer the problem on his study desk.

"Are you not concerned about this?!" he exclaimed angrily. "Someone is invading our territory and now she's winning!" @

"Slater, I know you're frustrated, but vent it

elsewhere." Hugo's voice was cold and commanding. "If you think she's taking Mom and Dad's attention, then you should disappear for 13 years. Otherwise, leave Atlas alone."
