Chapter 23 Making Things Difficult
Atlas walked to the front of Tobias' car. Viviana was in this car, so he needed to get in too.
However, Viviana said directly, "You can take another car!"
Hearing Viviana's words, Joseph hurriedly stretched out his head and shouted, "My car can't take
anyone anymore."
A smirk appeared on Shelly's face. "Gavin's car is full too. Why don't you go back?"
"Don't be like this!" Evelyn couldn't stand it anymore. There were still a lot of seats.
"Atlas, sit with me!" Evelyn helped Atlas out.
Although Evelyn always looked like a unemotional goddess, she was actually very kind and couldn't
stand Joseph bullying Atlas.
Seeing that Evelyn was angry, Shelly had to give up.
Joseph didn't want to offend Evelyn, so he could only shouted, "Come up!" This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Atlas glanced at Evelyn and nodded at her, "Thank you for your kindness. But I still have to sit with my
wife!"
As he spoke, Atlas stood by the car window and quietly looked at Viviana in the car.
"I promised Aunt Francis to protect you. I should sit with you." Atlas' expression was calm and his voice
was firm.
Viviana Sinclair stared at Atlas coldly and said with a cold face, "You don't need to worry about my
safety."
Sitting in the driver's seat, Tobias narrowed his eyes slightly and his face turned cold. He look at Atlas
and said, "Do you think I can't protect Viviana?"
Atlas looked at him, nodded seriously, and replied, "Yes."
In his previous life, Atlas did not attend Shelly's birthday party with Viviana, but later he heard about it.
These people provoked a big shot that day who didn't even give Tobias face, and directly detained
them.
Later, Mr. Morrison, Deputy Mayor of Lanceham, pleaded with this big shot to release Tobias and the
others.
Atlas' answer was not to humiliate Tobias on purpose, but to tell the truth.
However, Tobias obviously did not think so. He felt that Atlas was humiliating him.
Tobias' eyes flashed a haze, "Dude, don't try to challenge my patience. Otherwise, you can't afford the
consequences!"
"Really? I really want to see the consequences." After that, Atlas looked at Tobias provocatively.
Facing his love rival in his previous life, although Atlas did not take him seriously in this life, he still felt
uncomfortable when he saw him.
In that case, he wouldn't just give Tobias a good time.
"You bastard!" Tobias pretended to get out of the car.
Viviana said hurriedly, "Tobias! Let him come up. After all, he came with me. If you hurt him, I can't
explain it to my mother when I go back!"
Tobias stared at Atlas gloomily and snarled, "Dude, Viviana begs for you. I spare you this time. Next
time, I will teach you a lesson!"
Atlas shrugged and gave a half smile. He did not take him seriously at all.
After getting in the car, Atlas and Viviana sat in the back row.
Viviana moved to the side and tried to stay as far away from Atlas as possible. She looked ahead with
a cold face and said nothing.
Atlas leaned on the back and closed his eyes to rest. If he hadn't promised Mrs. Cho to protect Viviana,
he wouldn't even waste his time with these people.
"DH Century Mall, we go first!" Shelly shouted at the two cars behind her.
Gavin whistled and stepped on the gas pedal. The engine of the sports car roared and emitted black
smoke.
"Humph, you want to get rid of us? No way!" Joseph deliberately showed off in front of Evelyn. He
suddenly turned the steering wheel, directly passed Tobias' car and chased the first car.
"Mr. Morrison, we go first! Haha!" Joseph laughed smugly.
Tobias looked at Atlas through the rearview mirror and suddenly said, "Viviana, hold on."
"Alright." Viviana understood. She immediately fastened the seat belt and grasped the armrest.
Seeing their tacit understanding, Atlas' expression turned slightly cold.
In his previous life, he didn't know about Viviana's betrayal until his death. But from the way they
interacted with each other, it was obvious that they had been together for a long time.
A sinister smile appeared on Tobias' lips. He stepped on the accelerator and the car ran out.
Even though Viviana had received Tobias' reminder in advance, she couldn't help but jerk forward. If
she hadn't fastened her seatbelt in advance, Viviana would have hit the glove box directly.
On the other hand, Atlas was sitting steadily on his seat without being affected at all.
Tobias looked pale, and Viviana was surprised.
"Don't play tricks on me, or you will suffer losses." Atlas said lightly.
"Humph!" With a gloomy face, Tobias no longer drove the car like a crazy racer.
DH Century Mall was the largest comprehensive shopping mall in Lanceham. It was a business center
where entertainment, catering, shopping, and fitness integrated together.
According to Shelly's plan, their first step was to go shopping and buy a lot of good-looking clothes.
Women were fond of shopping. As soon as they arrived at the mall, they saw colorful and fashionable
clothes with their eyes shining, and even Evelyn could not handle it.
"There are so many new designs. Viviana, Evelyn, we'll buy at least five for each of us today!" Shelly
said excitedly.
"You are rich, but we are not as rich as you!" Viviana said bitterly.
Joseph behind them suddenly gave a strange smile and said, "I have a suggestion. The three beautiful
ladies go shop as much as they want. Our men are responsible for paying the bill. What do you think?"
Gavin immediately understood Joseph' meaning and said with a smile, "Of course. Every time Shelly
goes to the mall, I pay the bill. If a man can't even pay for a woman, he is a good-for-nothing."
Shelly rolled her eyes and gave Gavin a thumbs-up, "That's great! Gavin is so generous. I'm afraid
some people can't bear it!"
Shelly deliberately prolonged her voice and looked at Atlas with disdain.
Evelyn saw clearly their purpose.
Tobias was rich enough. Joseph' family operated a real estate company with assets of more than one
hundred million dollars. Gavin's family also had tens of millions of dollars; and he was an athlete in
swimming, so his got a high income himself. These rich boys.
On the contrary, Atlas was dressed in ordinary clothes. Although he looked good, it was obvious that he
could not afford the clothes here.
"I don't think it's a good idea." Evelyn was kind and did not want Atlas to be awkward.
"Evelyn!" Shelly pulled Evelyn aside. Looked at Atlas, she said arrogantly, "If a man doesn't have the
courage to pay for a woman. What a man is he?"
Tobias nodded and said, "I agree with Shelly."
Tobias had the highest status among them. It was not easy for Evelyn to refute his words.
Viviana glanced at Atlas. Although she had always looked down on Atlas, no matter what, Atlas was
her nominal husband.
Every woman wanted to be doted on by her man. Viviana also wanted a man to pay for her when she
was shopping in the mall, and hold an umbrella for her when it rained.
But the reality was that every time when they went out to shop and eat, Viviana paid the bills.
Thinking of this, Viviana's face turned dark. She looked at Atlas with more distaste.
"Viviana, don't worry. You can buy whatever you like. I'll pay for you."
Tobias was very good at observing people's expressions. When he saw that Viviana was silent, he
immediately reacted.
Viviana felt touched and looked at Tobias affectionately, "Thank you!"
"Don't worry. She's my wife. How can I ask an outsider to pay the bills?"
Atlas' voice was not loud, but he called out to Tobias directly, implying that he was an outsider and
announcing at the same time that Viviana was his wife.
