Chapter 982: I'm a natural in business.

"Sir, what is that?!" Allen wept as he entered the driver's seat while Atlas removed his blazer from the backseat. "You just blew up two of your dates in a span of five minutes! Are you trying to break the world record?! At this point, it's best to go on speed dating!"

Atlas casually placed his blazer down and glanced at the driver's seat. "Speed dating? What is that?"

"What?"

"Does that mean I can finish this abominable arrangement in an hour?" Atlas asked seriously. "This thing is tiring. If there's a way to end it quickly, why not do it? Work smart, not hard."

"..." Allen's mouth quivered, opening and closing, his voice stuck in his throat. After a moment, he slowly looked away from the backseat, his eyes gleaming with tears. "Oh, good lord. He's going to grow old single and die a virgin."

Atlas tilted his head to the side while his assistant buzzed in the driver's seat like a bee. He shrugged nonchalantly, thinking Allen was just there to assist him for nothing. He wasn't as helpful as one would expect.

"Let's go," he said, snapping Allen out of his dramatic thoughts. "I'm having lunch with everyone. Don't cry anymore. I'm sure I'm doing better than the rest. If there's a grading system here, I would've passed with an A++, while the rest might have a failing grade."

Allen glanced back at the backseat. 'Sometimes, he's kind of delusional as well.'

"Sir, I think your brothers and uncles are doing fine," said Allen. "But... okay, I'll drive now."

Atlas shrugged nonchalantly, not thinking much about Allen anymore. However, in his mind, he was still doing better than his brothers and uncles. After all, Atlas was "very kind" in talking to all his dates.
