Chapter 740
Comelia asked Abigail, “Who’s out there?”
The door slammed louder than Abigail intended, catching the attention of the two busy gents in the kitchen.
After Marcus came out, he immediately looked at Comelia and then swiftly positioned himself behind her, appearing
as if he was ready. to protect her.
Zack wiped his hands on his apron, rushing over to the flustered Abigail. “Abigail, what’s up?”
Abigail instructed, “Make sure Cornelia gets back to her room. Her boyfriend should be with her. And no peeping,
not until I say so.”

to our room, you take your time with Zack.”
“President Hartley, let’s chill in my room for a bit.” Cornelia hurriedly pulled Marcus back to their room.
Once inside her room, Cornelia shut the door, leaving a small gap to peek through.
Abigail knew her too well, “No peeping“” she yelled.
Cornelia had no choice but to shut the door completely, not daring to peek anymore.
Even though Comelia was back in her room, Abigail wasn’t reassured. “Zack, lock Comelia’s door from the outside.

Zack threw a few more punches, but Roman didn’t dodge. He just took it, “I did some wrong things. If you need to
punch me to vent, go ahead, I’ll wait till you cool down.”
Zack kept punching until his hands hurt, “You scumbag, how did you find out where we live? What do you want with
us? I’m warning you. you better leave now, the further the better, or I’ll beat you up every time I see you.”
Roman laughed at him, his derisive smile as if mocking Zack for not knowing the status of the Padilla family in
Riverton.
