PAMPERED CHAPTER 232

232 Atlas

Twelve years later...

[GLOBAL PRIME LOGISTICS HEADQUARTERS]

Everyone stopped and glanced at the group of high executives entering the building. They slightly lowered their heads upon catching the dashing man in the middle of the group.

"Sir, CEO Miller sent another request for a meeting..." a man in his early thirties reported to his boss, his steps matching his boss' pace despite keeping his eyes on the notes in his hand. "Then, there's a board meeting about the merging of..."

The CEO of the biggest logistic company, Atlas Bennet, 29, glanced at his assistant. "Move that meeting to tomorrow

"Yes, sir," the assistant didn't ask as he quickly jotted down the note. "About your third brother, Slater. He left a message in your office."

Atlas stopped in front of the private lift only for executives to use. "I'll get it," he said while waiting for the lift to open. "Anything else?"

This time, Atlas looked at him. "Is he dead?"

"Sir, Ha ha. No, he isn't." the assistant sighed, still not used to his boss's relationship with his siblings. Atlas never talked about his personal relationship with anyone even to the closest person who worked for him. "Your Second Brother said he will come home."

The people behind him stood outside and lowered their heads. They didn't dare share the clevator with him. Hence, they all automatically waited for the next one.

The only person who came with Atlas was his assistant. Standing behind his boss, the assistant cleared his throat again.

"What else?" asked Atlas while staring at the numbers over the door.

"Sir... uhm, someone also left a message in the office, the assistant said.

Atlas waited for him to say it, but the assistant didn't speak for a moment. Thus, he turned his head and looked at him.

"What is it, Allen?" he asked, "What's with the long pause?"

Allen, his assistant, tipped his eyeglasses and looked at Atlas with conflict. "Sir, do you have a child?"
