"So, I hope you also understand mine in the future."
Atlas’s vague remarks could be taken in different contexts. However, even before fully understanding what he meant by that, William felt that what Atlas had just said carried deeper meaning than it appeared.
"Huh?" William’s already furrowed brows deepened, but Atlas was no longer interested in him.
Atlas shifted his eyes back to Zoren. "You didn’t have to come down here."
"My nephew called me, so I was a little worried," Zoren said, sliding his foot as he watched Atlas walk toward him. He began walking beside his first brother-in-law, but before he took a step, he glanced over his shoulder. "I’m letting this slide just because First Brother asked me to. William Pierson, be careful next time."
With that, Zoren resumed walking beside Atlas. Allen was unsure whether this was okay, but he ended up jogging to follow them. Atlas didn’t verbally ask Zoren anything, but the latter already understood the drill when Atlas spoke and thanked William for something he shouldn’t.
Benjamin, on the other hand, sneered and fearlessly glared at William. Instead of following his boss, he walked over to William and huffed.
"Director William, you should’ve asked my boss to scold you and deal with you, because now, Sir Atlas is going to do it!" he scowled quietly and haughtily, walking closer to tease. "Miss Penny’s message to you to keep taking your maintenance is still valid. If I were you, I’d take it diligently!"
Benjamin huffed and straightened his back, feeling much better now. He flashed William a wide smile before turning his back on him.
The corner of William’s mouth twitched, glaring at Benjamin’s back. "That brat... is always so annoying. One of these days, he’ll regret talking to me like this."
As for Dean, who remained off to the side, he furrowed his brows. ’Atlas... is going to deal with this guy?’ His brows snapped as his thoughts halted, offering William a bright grin.
"Uncle, I don’t think you should take whatever Assistant Vitt said seriously. You know him. He always barks and is a little overprotective when it comes to the CEO," he remarked kindly, tilting his head to the side. "I also hope you also understand that it’s not my intention to put you in a tight spot. I simply called my uncle because I wanted to show him something interesting. I heard he’s been getting bored lately, so I thought the situation might pump some blood into him."
His smile then faded a little as his eyes looked sharper. "I’ll head to my office now. Today’s divination told me that I shouldn’t get angry with the wrong person, so I won’t add fuel to the fire. See you at the meeting, Director William Pierson."
Having said that, Dean coolly strode off.
