Chapter 190
Dr. Dawson gently jabbed Ayden’s head. You’re no spring chicken anymore, but you still haven’t given me a grandchild, don’t even have a girlfriend. It’s a waste of breath talking to you about this stuff.”
Ayden “What’s that got to do with me?”
Dr. Dawson “You asked me first”
Ayden looked innocent. I just want to know why you’re worried about President Hartley. If you know something, tell me, so I can plan ahead”
“You can’t help with this matter. He’s got to sort it out himself “Dr. Dawson rolled her eyes, “Marc’s got feelings for Cornelia.”
Ayden: “So what if he likes Cornelia? Cornelia is his wife, she has no ill intentions towards him, it’s perfectly normal for him to like Cornelia.”
Dr. Dawson wanted to knock him, “He likes Cornelia, likes her to the point of losing control because of her, that’s not normal. Think about tonight, how terrifying his eyes were when he found out Cornelia was kidnapped. For someone in his position, having a weak spot is a scary thing, don’t you think?”
Ayden didn’t think so much, “Don’t worry, today was an accident, President Hartley definitely won’t let something like this happen again.”
Dr. Dawson roared in anger, “Can you guarantee there won’t be a second, a third accident?”
Ayden What are you getting at?”
Dr. Dawson: Tm just worried about Marc, worried that he’ll be manipulated, worried that he’ll lose his mind. He can be good to Cornelia, he can give her the best things in the world, but he can’t lose his mind and disregard his own safety for Cornelia.”
Ayden: With me around, who can get near him?”
Dr. Dawson was speechless.
She regretted wasting her breath, she shouldn’t have expected this strong but simple–minded guy to understand her point.
In the hospital room, the drugged and unconscious Cornelia suddenly convulsed a couple of times, murmuring, “Jeremy”
Tm here, Ive always been here.” Marcus tightly held her hand, the other gently pushing her damp hair behind her ear, “Cornelia, Jeremy’s always here, don’t be afraid.”
She opened her mouth and spit out a string of numbers, “03212020”
“I know you want to tell me about the girl who jumped off the building, I’ve already sent people to collect evidence, Eden will be brought to justice If it weren’t for Cornelia giving him this string of numbers tonight, allowing him to instantly look up the incident of the girl jumping off the building two years ago, he wouldn’t have been able to find her exact location so quickly.
If he had been a few minutes later, the consequences would’ve been unthinkable. It was her quick thinking that saved herself.
