Chapter 30
It was about 9 p.m.when Korah woke up. She sat up scared, looked around, and realized that she was
home. What happened? Was she not at Ember Hotel? Why was she back? Delilah walked into the
room. When she saw that Korah was finally awake, she worriedly, “Korah, how do you feel?” “Mom…”
Korah calmed herself down and shook her head. “I’m fine… Why am I home now?” “Four bodyguards
brought you home. It was too dangerous. You almost fell into the trap. If it weren’t for them… I’m not
sure what would have happened to you.” When Mrs. Gardner remembered seeing the four bodyguards
carry an unconscious Korah in, she was terrified! Korah sighed in relief. “I’m so grateful for them. If not

b*stard! “Don’t worry. Your dad has rewarded those four bodyguards. Remember to say thank you to
them when you’re back at the office tomorrow.” “I will.” Korah nodded. Korah was impressed that the
four bodyguards were so strong. She had specially recruited them at a high price! Before Korah
became unconscious, she saw that Nathan’s men were overpowering her bodyguards. She thought
everything was over. “Mom, I’m a little hungry…” “I’ll make you some spaghetti.” Mrs. Gardner
immediately went downstairs. After a while, Korah also went downstairs. Cyrus also came back at this
time. Korah frowned a little. She wanted to find a reason to scold Cyrus. But she felt a little
embarrassed when she remembered that Cyrus had given her advice after she got off work. Then, she
huffed, changed the topic of conversation, and said, “Don’t be late tomorrow. Otherwise, I will cut your
pay.” Cyrus nodded. Delilah came out from the kitchen and gently asked, “Cyrie, you’re back. Are you
hungry? Do you want to have some spaghetti?’ “No, thank you, Mrs. Gardner.” “Why are you still calling
me Mrs. Gardner? You should change how you address me!”
Korah’s expression changed slightly and she interrupted. “Mom, where is the fresh beef? I wanted to
add some to my spaghetti!”
“In the fridge…” Cyrus laughed out loud and immediately asked, “Where is Mr. Gardner?” Delilah
answered, “They had an emergency to attend to at the company, so they went out.” “Okay… Then, I
will take a bath and head to bed.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKorah froze a little. She certainly knew that Cyrus purposely said that in front of her. When he saw that
Korah was not protesting, Cyrus immediately went upstairs. The next day, Cyrus realized that the
atmosphere in the car was dreary. “Dad… I’m sorry.” In the passenger seat, Korah looked a little
depressed. Wade sighed. “It’s not your fault. We did not expect Nathan to act so boldly. He is so
despicable
Cyrus frowned gently. He could not help but ask, “Did anything happen to the company?” Wade ignored
Cyrus’ question. Korah replied agitatedly, “You make it sound like you don’t know!”
“It has nothing to do with you. Stop asking!” Cyrus frowned and did not understand. Was Edmund
fooling him? Had Edmund not settled Nathan?
If that was true… Cyrus’ gaze instantly became ruthless! At Team Four’s office in the Project
Department… “Cyrus!” Ekialde smiled and greeted him. He had returned to work. Cyrus nodded. “Are
you feeling better?”
