Chapter 186
Eden couldnât pour the liquid into her mouth and angrily squeezed her jaw tightly, wishing she could pry her mouth open
Cornelia all of a sudden gave a forceful shove, and the water glass in Edenâs hand was knocked to the ground âGet me a syringe Eden was pissed off, forcefully pushing Cornelia against the wall
Cornelia struggled but couldnât break free, watching as her sleeve was ripped off and a cold needle was jabbed into her body
Cornelia could feel the liquid from the syringe rushing into her body. âWhat medicine did you inject the with?â âThe medicine that will make you feel like crying tonight âEden pulled out the needle, grinning wickedly âSo tell me, how do you feel?â
At first. Cornelia fet a bit hot, and then her head started to feel foggy The figures in front of her gradually became blurry, and she could only make out their outlines If the person in front of her didnât speak, she couldnât even tell if they were male or female.
Eden licked his lips. Take her to my room Once Iâve had my fun, you guys can do whatever you want with her.â
Bang-
The sturdy door suddenly shattered onto the floor, making a loud noise
Following that was a tall, muscular man standing in the doorway.
Before Eden could even see who it was, he started cursing. âWho the hell are you? Do you know who I am? Youâre making trouble here, donât you want to live?â Cursing and cursing, Eden was terrified when he saw the tall man appearing behind Ayden. Marcus is here?
Marcus actually showed up!
Is there some secret love affair between Marcus and Cornelia?
Marcus didnât say anything, didnât do anything, but his presence alone was like the Grim Reaper, casting a looming shadow over everyone
He coldly scanned the room, walking straight to Cornelia who could barely stand. He pulled her into his warm, strong embrace. âCornelia.â
Cornelia couldnât see or hear clearly, âAre you Jeremy?â
Seeing the injury on her face, Marcusâs breath hitched, âI am Jeremy. Iâm sorry Iâm late.â
âJeremy, thank you for coming âJeremy had a comforting scent about him, easing her fears. She let the drugs take over her mind and fainted in his arms
âIm your husband, how could I not come?â Marcus scooped her up, gently cradling her head Tm taking you home.â
Finally snapping back to reality, Eden fell to his knees in front of Marcus, President Hartley, please spare me. I promise I never hurt Cornelia again
Marcus didnât even acknowledge him, carrying Cornelia out of the room. âAyden, clean up this mess
Eden begged for forgiveness in regret. âPresident Hartley, please have mercy. I wonât do it againâ
âRoger that.â Ayden picked up Eden as if he were a mere chick, then chucked him against the wall.
The impact left Edenâs bones feeling disjointed, he lay on the floor, too scared to move.
Ayden grabbed Eden by the throat, holding him up with one hand as if he could easily crush him, âDo you know who she is? You dared to lay a hand on her!â
