I turned around after pressing the lift button. Poppy was already in front of me, accompanied by a manager and an assistant. "Miss Chloe, are you also here to see Mr. Atlas?" Her tone made it seem like I was just here for srandom matter, not to see my husband.
When the three of them entered, they followeddirectly. One of the receptionists at the front desk had already cover with them, but seeing Poppy speaking tolike this, the receptionist quietly retreated.

However, I didn't ask her which executive she was going to see on the top floor.
"Haven't been out recently, Chloe?" Poppy was quite friendly.
"No." I replied, "I thought you had left Foswood already. Turns out you've been here all along!" "Yes, there's work here. I cearly a few days ago to have sfun, but unexpectedly, you have been too busy to meet up, so it's equivalent to taking a break in Foswood!"

I smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry! I've been quite busy lately!" She didn't mention Atlas toat all.

When they heard the sound, Atlas and Kalina looked at the door, Atlas smiled in our direction and said, "Here she is!" Before I could speak, Poppy strode over behind me. "Of course, Mr. Atlas! When I received your call, I hurriedly finished my work and cover immediately!" I was taken aback. I halted, glancing at Poppy, who had approached the desk already. I thought there was something to discuss, probably about an endorsement deal.
I didn't overthink about it.
Atlas withdrew his gaze from my face and looked at Poppy. His expression was indifferent.
"I called you?" His tone was questioning, "When was that?" Kalina quickly walked around the office and said to Atlas, "Mr. Atlas, I made the call. I made plans for Miss Poppy to attend.
