Beyond the Divorce

Atticus hadn't expected me to mention Denton's name immediately. He seemed a bit surprised but nodded. "You're truly sharp-minded."
I smiled lightly, feeling a special admiration for Rose.
Atticus continued, "Denton is someone to keep an eye on. Over the past few years abroad, he has accumulated many resources and connections. He's the true mastermind behind the Terrells."
It seemed that Atticus and Rose were on the same page. I couldn't help but think that I needed Grayson to investigate Denton thoroughly.
"But you don't have to worry too much. After all, Bourdamun's new development is a project from higher-ups. Even if he has ideas, he needs to weigh his strength. He will unlikely get his way, even if it's evenly matched.
"Trying to contend with the higher-ups is not as simple as it used to be," Atticus consoled when he saw I hadn't spoken.
"Back then, were you also afraid of running into a tough nut like Nelson?" I asked Atticus with a mischievous smile.
"Not entirely." Atticus's response was interesting.
I couldn't help but laugh. "So, it means there were some considerations in that regard."
He nodded without reservation. "I don't have the same ideas as you regarding the Bourdamun project. You aim to use Bourdamun to create your positioning prototype, whereas I knew from the beginning that there would be follow-ups for my projects in Rivendell."
Atticus's words were undoubtedly honest.
It was no surprise that his rivalry with Atlas had been so fierce back then. He knew this project was only a prelude, with hidden chunks of fat behind it.
Atticus had taken advantage of Celine's arrival, manipulating the project with two rounds of changes.
However, Celine wanted to overpower Atlas quickly at that time. So, she turned the long-term advantage into a shortcoming, only seeing the immediate benefits.
It could be seen that Atlas had miscalculated in this project.
Atticus looked at me and said, "Not all projects are worth taking on. They must fit into one's
development plan. Bourdamun's et
new district project is tailored for you! You're determined to use it to create a model project, and it's inevitable.
"Other developers must have probed into it, knowing this bone is too tough to chew. It's not worth the effort for them. So, you face no obstacles."
"Haha! I wondered why there were no competitors, and I thought my information was spot-on." I chuckled self-deprecatingly.
"Not exactly. I knew from the start that even if I competed for this project, the final result would fall into your hands," Atticus said realistically. "Why?" I asked.
Atticus smiled. "Atlas won't let this one slip away again. For me, Atlas is my formidable rival. I won in Rivendell by chance, but Bourdamun is different. Atlas has long paved the way for you. You have the
Ov
prerequisite for victory."
"Are you referring to the Beringers?" I asked, looking calmly at Atticus. "The Beringers haven't made any moves on Bourdamun's project."

Moreover, the trigger was Liora, who indirectly slapped Atticus in the face that
day.

Perhaps it was Atticus's openness about his plans for Liora instantly shortened
the distance between us.
So far, I honestly had to thank Atticus. Regardless of his motives, his help to me
was undeniable.
"It makes sense why you chose not to pursue Bourdamun!" I exclaimed.
