NovelOnlineChapter 760 Her Target Has Appeared I was convinced that she didn't believe I could be so confident. Maybe I even seemed a little arrogant to her.
But I had no intention of backing down. I continued, saying, "It's just fate. Take Harmony, for example. Even if she transformed herself to be like me, she would still be Harmony, not me." "Harmony transformed herself to be like you?" Poppy asked incredulously.
"You probably understand Harmony better than me." I chuckled, throwing the question back at Poppy. Then, I explained, "As the saying goes, know yourself, know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. Harmony is your competitor. Don't you understand her?" A moment later, I asked her again, "Was that confusing?" Poppy seemed uneasy. "I envy you for having such confidence." I smirked. "It's not just confidence. If you don't do anything out of line, nothing will happen to you. Harmony is a tragic example.
*She also ctofor advice back then, but unfortunately..." I shrugged. I used this example deliberately. Smart as she was, she wouldn't fail to grasp the message I wanted to deliver.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtPoppy and I were both stunned when he pushed the door open and walked in.
Atlas rarely visited my office unless it was a special occasion.
He must have wanted to surpriseand assumed I would be in the office alone.
Poppy, on the other hand, probably hadn't expected her target to appear. The surprise in her eyes was clear.
Atlas was dressed in a well-tailored and stylish suit, exuding a captivating charm. His thick, casually combed- back hair revealed a full forehead, and his incredibly handsface was impossible to ignore. He radiated an air of sophistication and aloofness from head to toe, like a king possessing an undeniable majesty.
He was completely unaffected by the 'outsider' in the office and continued to stride in naturally. Every move he made left Poppy infatuated. She seemed to momentarily forget where she was and that I was still there. Original from NôvelDráma. Org.
She probably thought Atlas's confident steps were meant for her. Suddenly, her face flushed with a mix of infatuation and greed. The longing in her eyes intensified with every step Atlas took. It was as if she wanted to pounce on him.
Her unmistakable desire to conquer him was evident, and I was sure she must be trembling with excitement. It madeuneasy.
It was clear that she had chere to snatch my man. This was no casual visit.
I remained calm and sat unmoving in my seat, watching Atlas approach with a smile on my face. After all, I had confidence in my man.
As he walked over, Poppy stood up with a charming smile.

Poppy kept her focus on Atlas. She was probably seeing him close-up in real life for the first time. She tried to use her seductive charm as she greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Atlas." That was an obvious move. She had started speaking without waiting forto introduce them.
Atlas only glanced at her briefly, but she extended her hand toward him. "I'm Poppyt's a pleasure to meet you." Her voice was so enchanting that it would make any man fall for her.
I continued to watch the scene with a smile, but Poppy didn't feel that anything was amiss.
Atlas's gaze shifted toward her, and he nodded slightly. He becmore aloof, withdrawing the warmth he had shown toward me. Then, he said gently, "Go ahead and talk, you two. Don't letinterrupt you." He redirected his gaze from Poppy to me, completely ignoring the hand she had extended to him.
