If the news leaks, the investigation will fail, and it might lead to unforeseenplications." Sean quickly told the man, "Use your brain. I bet this involves higher-ups for sure." Everyone agreed with Sean.
"I really want to meet this Byron guy," I said.

I looked at Nick, and he understood my meaning. After thinking for a moment, he said, "We should stay. I want to meet those important people in Gerby, and Arnold's here too. We can go together." After finalizing the plan, Finn left, saying goodbye until the evening. The rest of us went downstairs for lunch.
Later, I went to explore the malls in Gerby with Eleanor. We were planning to check out soutfits for the event tonight. Before reaching the mall, Atlas called. I quickly answered.
I couldn't stop smiling while talking to him. My plans had changed. I had promised to be back in Foswood today, but it seemed impossible now.
His gentle voice echoed in my ears, "What's going on? Why are you in such a good mood?" "I can'te back tonight. You know already, right?" I knew he was pretending not to know. If Nick hadn't reported it to him, Arnold would have.
"Yeah," he replied nonchalantly. "Looks like someone's getting wild out there." I chuckled. "Not at all. This is a special situation." "What are you doing now?" he asked. I could hear that he wasn't in the office. He was probably in the car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm going to the mall. There's aworking event here tonight, and I want to meet Byron. I didn't bring a lot of clothes here, let alone an outfit for the event. I can't show up looking like a mess. I'll go to the maltand find something last-minute. "Hmm. What tdoes the party start?" he asked.
"It starts at 7 pm tonight," I said. "Don't worry about me. I'll definitely be back tomorrow. You can rest assured." "You've learned how to lie to me, huh?" Atlas's tone was indulgent. "What if there's another special situation?" I chuckled. "No way! How can there be so many special situations? Once I'm back, I'll tell you all about it, and you'll understand. I'm afraid Byron has a major problem." "Then investigate him," Atlas said firmly.
"Atlas, I need to save Beatrice from this misery. I my memories of the past ten years, Beatrice was an important person in my life. She gavemany beautiful if I dig et and now she's in distress. If I didn't know, it would be one thing, but I saw the terrible situation she was in today. "She looked emaciated, like a zombie. She used to be cheerful and animated, but now she's like this. She's a normal person locked up in a mental institution. Imagine how helpless she must feel. I can't even bear to think about it, Atlas, Today, when we said we were leaving, she looked desperate and muttered my name." I choked up, and the surge of emotions I had been trying to hold back broke through.
"I'll definitely help you save her from this ordeal. Don't worry," Atlas assuredunequivocally.
"But it's not an easy task. To save her and give her freedom, we need to bring Byron down. It's challenging, and I...," I hesitated.
"I promised you I'd do it, and I'll keep my promise. We can do it. Remember, as long as I'm here, there's no storm I can't shield you from, and no problem I can't solve." I stood still for a moment, then burst into tears and laughter, surprising Eleanor, who rushed tofort me. Before she could speak, I expressed my gratitude to Atlas over the phone, "Thank you, my dear husband." Eleanor awkwardly moved away.
