Cornella pondered for a moment and said. “Let’s meet three days after Christmas Hell be too busy to
notice me gone I’ll be out for a day or two and he probably won’t find out Skyler responded. In that
case, I wont give you the exact address now. Just in case your phone is being tapped by Zavier I still
have time to make a run for Well get in touch when you get to Nice”
Cornelia understood Skyler’s concerns and replied, “Alright contact you when I get there”
Skyler added. Tve only been out for a month, but it feels like a year. When I first escaped, I had
nightmares every night and I couldn’t sleep. I was always afraid of waking up in that familiar
room with that devil of a man next to me*
Tears welled up in Comelia’s eyes ‘Skyler, don’t be scared. You’re free now. Even the powerful Zavier

your life anew”
Skyler took a deep breath. “Yes, it’s all in the past Things will get better Cornelia, let’s end the
conversation here for today. I have things to handle Fl wait for your arrival”
After Cornelia hung up, tears streamed down her face She couldn’t understand why she felt so upset.
She opened WhatsApp and saw dozens of unread messages from Zack
“Cornelia, that jerk Marcus actually hung up my video call! Wait till he gets back to Riverton, Il teach
him a lesson!”
“Nelly, did Marcus bully you? Hurry up and reply, I’m freaking out here”
Nelly!”
“Nelly, do you need me to come to Paris right now?”
Cornelia quickly replied, “Zack, don’t judge people by their cover. Marcus is not a bad guy. He’s not
interested in all the women throwing themselves at him. Why would he be interested in a married
woman like me?*
As soon as Cornelia sent the message, Zack replied, “You finally replied. I thought something
happened to you Scared the hell out of me
Cornelia replied, “Who’d dare mess with me when I have the whole Hartley Group backing me up? I’m
just a small assistant, but to many people, I’m Marcus’s right hand, nobody would dare mess with me?‘
She wasn’t exaggerating
Zack replied, “Anyway, take care of yourself Let us know if anything happens. Abby and I are going
back to Rosenberg for the New Year. We’ll return to Riverton a few days after the new year Hope you
can come back to Riverton soon.

After ending the chat, Cornelia checked the time and it was already past noon.
She hurriedly got up to wash up and only realized halfway through that she seemed to have memories
of going to the Paris Tower with Marcus the night before. As for what happened later, her memory was
a bit fuzzy
When she woke up, she found herself in bed Were the pajamas she was wearing swapped by Marcus?
Cornelia quickly dismissed this absurd thought. After all, it’s not only her and Marcus at home. It must
have been Briana who changed her clothes.
After she was done freshening up, Cornelia put on a suit and went downstairs. She saw Marcus sitting
in the living room reading some documents There was a heater in the house, so he was simply dressed
in a white shirt and black trousers. Even such simple attire couldn’t hide his charm and good looks. He
looked like a beautiful painting no matter where he sat
To avoid disturbing him, Cornelia deliberately lightened her footsteps. However, Marcus still noticed her
right away, “You’re awake”
