Chapter 1052
Because Marcus started acting weird after he bumped into Brennen. Cornelia was dying to know what Brennen had said to him that day, but no matter how hard she probed, Marcus wouldn't spill the beans.
Cornelia reached out, gently touching his flawless face, "We're married, remember? We promised to tackle everything together. Why won't you tell me what's going on?"
Just as Cornelia was getting all confused, her phone buzzed twice, alerting her to a new message. Picking up her phone, Cornelia discovered a text from an unknown number: [Cornelia, it's me, Skyler']
She had just mentioned Skyler, and now she got a message from her!
Cornelia quickly texted back: [Skyler, how's life treating you?]
Skyler replied: [Why aren't you asking where I am?]
Cornelia texted back: [I'm scared my phone's been tapped by Zavier again, so I didn't dare ask.]
Skyler responded: [He could've tapped your phone once, but there's no way he could do it a second time. Your husband Marcus would protect you.]
Cornelia replied: [Can you tell me where you are then? I'm torn. I want to know where you are, but I'm afraid to know.]
Skyler replied: [I'm in Riverton. If you're free tomorrow, we can have dinner together,]
She was in Riverton! This news made Cornelia both happy and terrified: [Skyler, when did you come back? How come you dared to come to Riverton, aren't you scared of Zavier finding you? Or do you just not care anymore?]
Skyler responded: [I've actually always been in Riverton.]
Cornelia couldn't believe her eyes: [You've been in Riverton all this time? Since when?]
Skyler replied: [Ever since we split up in France, your husband Marcus helped me get back to Riverton. He said the most dangerous place is the safest. Sure enough, Zavier searched everywhere but Riverton.]
Cornelia had to admire Marcus: [Marcus is really something.
He thinks of everything.]
