Chapter 812: How could there not be any eye witnesses?

Allen's explanation for why he was there the night of the incident confirmed Atlas's theory. Although Allen's reason caught him off guard, it aligned with what Atlas had guessed about what could've happened that night.

"I see." Atlas nodded in understanding, looking at Allen as if he were about to say something insulting.

Seeing the look in Atlas's eyes, Allen laughed awkwardly. "It was a dumb thing to do, wasn't it?"

Yes if Atlas were to be direct, that would be the truth.

"Allen, even if you finish a year's work in advance, do you think it would make me happy?" Atlas replied, his tone a little dead. "I'd just find some other work for you and me to do. Meaning, more work for the both of us."

"Hah... now that I think about it, that's true," Allen laughed awkwardly. "I guess I was just too happy and excited about the raise I got and didn't think about anything else."

"So next time, even if you find yourself in a similar situation, the first thing you should do is run," Atlas suggested firmly. "Playing the hero is beyond your pay grade. Though I appreciate your loyalty, I don't pay you to do that."

Allen smiled helplessly. "Boss, I did it because that guy has always been a problem for you."

"And let him be a problem. I'd prefer that over having to look for a new assistant." Atlas's tone and expression remained unchanged. "That's an entirely different problem, which is also a hassle."

However, Allen's smile widened, despite Atlas's unappreciative remarks. His boss might not have said it outright, but Allen understood Atlas's good intentions.

"Anyway, if this happens again, don't do anything. Although Sven is in custody now, it's better to be cautious."
