Chapter 1040: My sister didn't mention a thing about you

"Sir Atlas!" Allen perked up as soon as Atlas stood in front of him. His eyes stung, becoming teary at the sight of him. He wanted to complain and say all the things he had been suppressing to his boss. However, that didn't matter anymore.

Allen was not as vengeful as his boss, after all. He just knew that since Atlas was here, Allen wouldn't be humiliated.

"I told you to just say your name," Atlas remarked, though his delivery wasn't very kind. "Let's go."

"Let's go...?"

"Have you grown fond of the lobby?"

"No-no, sir. It's just that..." Allen trailed off as hesitation flickered in his eyes, reminded of the security guards' demands. But after a second, he nodded and said, "I guess it's fine now...?"

Atlas raised an eyebrow, but didn't comment as he turned to leave. Before he could fully do so, the same security guard who had stopped Allen approached.

"Wait, good sirs!"

Atlas stopped and looked back at the security guard. The latter offered them a polite smile because William Pierson was still in the area.

'Did they think that just because we're busy, they can sneak in?' The security guard mentally scoffed, darting his malicious eyes between Atlas and Allen. "Sir, your friend here told us that you'd pick him up. That's why we let him stay. However, we need to identify you first and then check your access cards."
