Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom -
Chapter 1556 I Know Where It Is
I gazed at Atlas's anxious face, his features wavering before my eyes.
"Chlo... tell me what's wrong," he said, concern etched on his handsome face.
I glanced around the room, noticing all our loved ones present, their faces filled with worry, both inside and outside the door.
Closing my eyes, I nestled into Atlas's embrace. I felt exhausted like never before. With a soft murmur, I confessed, "I'm... I'm okay."
My head throbbed fiercely with an unbearable sensation.
"I'm fine," I repeated before settling back into his arms, still as a statue. In my ears, the echoes of my dream lingered.
A team of medical staff rushed in. Atlas patted me gently. "Let the doctors check you out, sweetheart. You've been out for 48 hours! Let them examine you, okay?"
He eased me onto the bed. After the doctors finished their examination, they briefed Atlas on the results.
I drifted back to sleep, this time for real, unaware of anything.
When I woke up again, the room was bright. Blinking, I looked around at everyone. My daughter, Ava, rushed to the side of my bed. "Mommy, wake up! You haven't been home for three days! I'm scared..." I reached out to touch her little head. "I'm fine. Don't be scared!"
As I said that, I instinctively placed a hand on my stomach.
Atlas reassured me. "Don't worry, the kids are fine. They're strong, just like their mom!"
Then, he turned to me, asking, "Does your head still hurt?"
I quickly shook my head. My mom asked, "Are you hungry?"
As soon as she asked that, I suddenly felt ravenous, and my stomach growled loudly.
When I stared at the takeout box my mom had placed on the small table, I was stunned. Slowly, I reached out. Why did this box resemble the one my mom held in my dream, flipping and dripping with wax? Suddenly, I remembered my mom's words. "Remember, the tallest almond tree!"
"What are you doing, Mom? Isn't it hot?"
"Sweetie! Remember? The tallest tree! Remember the almond tree, remember the water lily, go replace Dad! The tallest tree!"
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit me, and I immediately turned to Atlas.
"Atlas, quick, let's go to Nocturnia!" I grabbed him, my eyes fixed on him with urgency. "Hurry, we need to go to Nocturnia!"
My sudden outburst stunned Atlas. He reached out to hold me close. "Get a doctor!" he shouted.
"There's no need to call a doctor, honey. We need to go to Nocturnia. I know where it is!" I looked up at him. "Let's go back to the mansion!"
He was taken aback by my words and stared at me intently. "Chlo!"
I nodded solemnly and confidently. "Let's go to Nocturnia right now! I'm completely fine. I know where it is!"
Our family boarded a private plane through a special channel two hours later, heading straight for Nocturnia.
Atlas had prepared a lot of food for me on the plane. I finally got to eat the braised beef I had been craving from our aircraft.
I recounted the strange dreams I had been having to Atlas.
Dylan was already waiting for us when we landed as he had anticipated our arrival.
When we returned to the mansion once again, everything was exactly as it used to be.
The nursemaids and old servants had all returned to the mansion. didn't have time for explanations. I immediately took Atlas and the entourage to the hillside in the back garden.
Atlas guarded me carefully as Dylan went to replace the tallest almond tree in the backyard.
Pressing my temples, I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, trying to recall the position from my dream. Mom had led me into the woods, and we seemed to have walked quite a distance.
The forest was dense, casting shadows all around us.
Atlas held my hand, protecting me cautiously. "Don't rush. We'll look for it slowly. Trust me, we'll replace it!"
However, there was a problem. After all, this place had weathered twenty years of storms, and there were too
many tall almond trees. I didn't know which one my mom had brought me to
Everything was different now. The conditions had changed. I frantically searched through the woods.
"Why doesn't it look right?" I looked up at the treetops while weaving through the trees.
I almost stumbled a few times, but Atlas caught me, pulling me into his arms. "Chlo, wait, take a break, don't rush!"
He looked at me. His heart seemed to ache as he comforted me. "Running around like this won't help. Let's calm down and think carefully about the details."
He found a rock to sit on then pulled me onto his lap. "Let's summarize the details and rule out some possibilities."
Everyone gathered around, their eyes fixed on me.
