I suddenly froze in place, my heart pounding. I urgently looked up at Atlas and asked, "Is he alive?" Atlas tightened his grip around my waist, subtly signalingto remain calm. He turned his gaze toward Clark, silently urging him to continue.
Clark, noticing our pause, spoke, "Sir, before I tell you, you must promise to release my son. As long as he's safe, I assure you, I will reveal Rory's current hiding place. I-If it's too late, I can't guarantee..." "You have no right to bargain with me," Atlas said, ready to turn away.

Atlas's hand signaledagain, his expression conveying an air of invincibility.
"Sir... Let Jarvis go. Sir, please..." Clark becanxious, crawling forward.
He stretched out his skinny hands, tugging at Atlas's pants. Atlas glared at him, and Clark froze.
"Back then, did you ever think our families would end like this?" Atlas's voice dripped with menace, as if he spoke through gritted teeth.
"Do you think I let you live until today because of your luck or intelligence? Do you think I couldn't find Rory?" Atlas took a step forward, a chilling aura surrounding him.

"Dylan!" Dylan stepped forward, taking a tablet from a subordinate. He turned it on and held it up in front of Clark. "I can show you immediately how his Achilles tendons were severed!"

I suddenly felt a piercing pain spreading throughout my body. Stepping forward, I looked at.
"What have you done toalet I might be slow, but I could grasp the hidden meaning behind Atlas's words.
"They feared Rory might escape again," Atlas explained. A sharp pain pierced my heart.
I rushed at Clark, lifting my foot with all my strength, and kicked him squarely in the face. He toppled backward.
"Tell me. Where is he?" I shouted, my heart screaming, "My poor dad..." Atlas quickly reached out, pullinginto his arms.
"Chlo, don't agitated. Someone、 will talk," Atlas said coldly, casting a fierce gaze at Clark, who struggled to get up. "Dylan!" to englisht belongs SWK Dylan promptly raised the tablet and issued a command, "Left!" He then directed the tablet toward Clark, and the screen emitted a sound reminiscent of a pig being slaughtered. Clark screamed, "Don't!" Dylan had a sinister look on his face. "It's too late. I don't mind severing the right as well." At first, I didn't understand why it had to go to this extent, but now I could see that the father and son were not innocent. Otherwise, Atlas would not have captured them at all. I believed that he would never harm innocent people. At this moment, there was a fire burning in my chest. I wish I could do it myself. Clark crawled toward Dylan like a madman, pleading, "Don't... I'll tell you! I'll tell you!" Privacy
