Chapter 1558
Cornelia,âTake your best shot.â
Courtney, âYou underestimate me?â
Cornelia, âDid you ever think that I could record the whole thing?â
Courtney, âIs that a bluff?â
Cornelia, âTry me.â
Courtney felt unsure. Jeremy was right outside, so she didnât dare to frisk Cornelia. She resorted to her trump card. âCornelia, you wouldnât want your son to stay a child forever, would you?â
The moment she heard this, Corneliaâs eyes turned icy.e2
Courtney knew this trick would definitely work, âIf you donât convince Marc to take me back, Iâll curse your child to never grow upâ¦â
Coldly, Cornelia stared at this evil woman. âSo thatâs your game, Courtney. But remember, you have a child too, Emily, if I remember it right, and if I want to find her, it would take me no more than a minute. I could ruin her life with a snap of my fingers.â
Cornelia didnât want to resort to such underhanded tactics, but Courtney had crossed a line by bringing up her son, and she was ready to fight fire with fire.
âIs that a threat?â
âYouâre nothing now, while I am the wife of the CEO of Artis Group. I can crush you like a bug.â
Cornelia was right. She was now the wife of the worldâs richest man, the lady of the Artis Group, no longer the meek assistant she used to be.
âYou wouldnât dare!â
âYou dare to curse my son. What wouldnât I dare to do?â
âYouâ¦â
âLet me remind you, Courtney, whether Marc wants to see you or not, is up to me.â
Courtney clenched her teeth in frustration.
âI allowed him to see you, to cut all ties with you, and to make it clear to you that you mean nothing to him. From now on, stay away from him.â
âSo this is your true face, Cornelia. You must have bewitched Marc. Iâll expose you for who you really are.â
âI know her better than anyone.â Jeremy suddenly entered the room, staring at Courtney with an emotionless face, âYou lured me out here to kidnap Hope.â
Seeing that her true intentions had been exposed, Courtney panicked. âMarc, how could that be? Why would I kidnap my own grandson?â
âMarcus is dead, and Jeremy is not your son. He owes you nothing. From now on, weâre nothing to each other. And if you dare to harm my wife or child again, youâll pay the price.â
âBut Marcâ¦
Without another glance, Jeremy took Corneliaâs hand and walked away. âLetâs go, Cornelia.â
