Marcus was driving with a grumpy look on his face
Comelia was completely oblivious, still chatting away with Zack and Abigail, “I bumped into President
Hartley and he roped me into a last–minute work thing Otherwise, I was planning to head back to
Riverton tonight and visit my grandma at Southern Peak tomorrow”
She had been out of the country before Christmas and was swamped with work for two weeks after she
got back. It had been nearly three months since she last saw her grandma She had initially planned to
visit her grandma at Southern Peak during her few days off. She only decided to fly to Woodpine last
night out of concern for Hannah, But unfortunately, she didn’t get the chance to have a good chat with
Hannah.
“What?” Cornelia suddenly raised her voice, “Abigail, you’re dating? Since when? Why am I only

Abigail huffed, “Now you know how we felt when we found out you were getting married”
Comelia said, “Don’t change the subject.”
Abigail reluctantly spilled, “We met while you were abroad. He’s not as good–looking as President
Hartley, but he’s definitely a looker. He pursued me like crazy for a month, and I thought he had a nice
personality So I agreed to date him.”
Cornelia said, “Zack, did you know about this?
Zack said, “I just found out too I commute with her every day, and she only went out by herself a few
times. I never thought she’d get swept off her feet. I’m even more gutted than you are right now
Cornelia said, “When I get back to Riverton, let’s all have a meal together I want to see what this guy
looks like, the one who managed to charm Abby.”
Zack said, “Forget about Abby, you’ve been married for nearly two years and we haven’t even seen a
glimpse of Jeremy”
That comment took the wind out of Cornelia’s sails, “Jeremy’s just really busy with work. But don’t
worry, the next time he’s in Riverton, I’ll bring him to meet you guys and
he can foot the bill.”
Marcus, who had been driving, suddenly felt his mood lift at the mention of Jeremy“. The name
“Jeremy” brought a smile to his face.
It was only after Cornelia finished her conversation that Marcus spoke up, “You want to go back to
Riverton tonight?”
Cornelia said, “Yes, but work comes first. I’ll go along with your plans.”
Marcus said, “Do you have any luggage at the hotel?”
Cornelia said, “I was planning to only stay for one night and then leave, so I didn’t bring any luggage.”
Marcus said, “Then we’ll head straight to the airport and fly back to Riverton”

Marcus said, Tll have someone else handle that.”
Cornelia said, “Okay”
Woodpine wasn’t a large place, and they reached the airport in less than half an hour.
Cornelia ran into Ayden and Dr. Dawson again, and they all hopped onto Marcus’s private jet back to
Riverton.
The interior of the plane was divided into two separate areas, the back his personal rest area. While the
front was equipped with a sofa and a coffee table, which could be used for both relaxation and work
discussions
As soon as they boarded the plane, Dr. Dawson and Marcus headed to the back to rest.
Ayden sat on the sofa opposite Cornelia, eyes closed. He was not saying a word, maintaining his aloof
image.
Cornelia had nothing to do, so she flipped through a magazine for a while. Feeling sleepy, she dozed
off on the sofa. She had no idea that Marcus in the back of the plane was currently on an IV drip
