Chapter 279 He leaned forward , his voice biting as he said , Answer me this : Atlas promised you a 50-50 split of the territory once he takes down South City .

Did you seriously believe that just because he said it ? Natashas glare intensified , but before she could respond , Andrew continued .

Second , Jayrodale has three major underground organizations , with Atlas and Northern District being the strongest .

Surely , you know this much .

And now , with Finley and the Hidden Dragons backing him , Atlas is more powerful than ever .

After he crushes South City , do you really think he wont turn around and wipe out West End next ? Natasha scoffed , though there was hesitation in her voice .

Do you seriously think I dont understand the dynamics of Jayrodale better than you ? After taking South City , Atlas will be weakened .

How could he possibly come after me ? Andrew shook his head , smirking .

Calling you stupid is honestly being too kind .

As I said , Atlas has the Hidden Dragons and the ambitious Finley by his side .

Even if Northern District is weakened after taking South City , Finley can easily gather the Hidden Dragons fighters with just a call .

When that happens , West End will be next .

Natasha frowned , feeling increasingly uneasy .

Andrews cold laughter echoed through the room .

Once Atlas takes South City , hell absorb its territory and fighters .

Sure , hell take a hit , but give him a little time to recover , and West End is as good as gone .

He continued , Theres no way Atlas will let a rival breathe down his neck .

Hell rip you out by the roots .

And as for you , the so called Black Widow ? Youll be paraded around as a trophy .

You know exactly what that means , dont you ? Natashas expression darkened as her eyes darted to Atlas and Finley .

Her anger was palpable .

Finley forced a laugh , his fan snapping shut with a loud clack .

Madam Vostokoff , hes spinning nonsense .

Mr.

Girodano only wants to avenge Griffin .

Thats it ! You cant seriously believe his baseless accusations .

Andrew let out a mocking chuckle .noveldrama

Finley , youre a terrible liar .

Even a rookie in this game wouldnt buy your story .

You expect someone like her to believe that Atlas is going to war out of some sense of loyalty ? Underground leaders never care about loyalty , They use their men as disposable pawns , let them bleed in their place , and then sit back and enjoy the spoils .

Atlas slammed his fist on the table , his voice thunderous .

Andrew , youre crossing the line ! How dare you question my honor ! Andrew shrugged , unfazed .

Im not questioning it , Atlas .

Im flat out saying you dont have any .

+25 BOHUS Chapter 279 Ignoring Atlas glare , Andrew turned to Natasha and said , Let me put this in simpler terms .

Ever heard of a game of chess ? Natashas brow furrowed .

Chess ? What does that have to do with anything ? Andrews voice grew colder .

Open your eyes .

Youre being played .

If you keep trusting Atlas , youll end up as another cautionary tale in the history of bad alliances .

Dont let West End become a footnote In someone elses story .
