Chapter 760
It was all due to getting too worked up!
Comelia latched onto the key point, âGranny, donât panic, this has nothing to do with you. Can you tell me why my grandma got so worked up in the first place?â
Granny Luisa gave a detailed account of what happened at the old house today. After listening, Cornelia was silent for a few minutes. before suddenly standing up, âMarcus, can I borrow Ayden for a while?â
The name she called wasnât President Hartley, nor was it Jeremy, but Marcus, which indicated just how agitated she was.
Marcus, âWhat are you planning to do?â
Cornelia, âYou just need to lend me Ayden, donât ask any more questions. Also, you need to take good care of my grandma while Iâm gone. Iâll be back later.â
Collecting evidence, finding the rumormonger, and dealing with those who wanted to harm Cornelia⦠Marcus had already arranged for people to handle these matters. They should have results by eight oâclock tonight..
He had everything perfectly arranged, so Cornelia didnât need to take matters into her own hands. But whatever she wanted to do, Marcus would always support her, âOkay.â
Zack, who had come with them, voiced his concern, âNelly, what are you planning to do? Take me with you. Iâm a man, I can help if thereâs a fight or something.â
Cornelia, âYou stay put here. Donât go anywhere. If grandma wakes up, make sure to notify me immediately.â
After giving her instructions, Cornelia turned to Marcus, âIm heading to the parking lot, have Ayden meet me there.â
Marcus, âOkay.â
Cornelia hurriedly made her way to the parking lot, but surprisingly, Ayden arrived even faster. He was already waiting by her car. âMa am, what do you need me to do?â Ayden wasnât much for talking, but he was always in the know. Today, he even changed how he addressed Cornelia.
Cornelia, âDrive. Weâre going to the Padilla family to kick some ass.â
Ayden, âOkayâ
Ayden sped through the city streets, weaving through one road after another. When they were still a few hundred meters away from the Padilla familyâs residence, Cornelia asked him, âHow many people can you take down on your own? If everyone from the Padilla family is there, do you think you can take down Roman?â
Ayden, âEither they go down, or I do.â
Comelia gave his shoulder a reassuring pat, âDonât worry, I just need you to back me up, scare them a little. You might not even have to throw a punch.â
However, Cornelia underestimated Aydenâs strength. Upon arriving at the Padilla familyâs place, Ayden took down Roman with just two punches and a shoulder throw.
Compared to Zackâs weak punches, Aydenâs were far more powerful. With just two punches, Roman lost two teeth. After a shoulder throw, he probably broke a couple of ribs.
After settling the fight, Ayden ushered Cornelia forward, âMaâam, the person youâre looking for is right here. Itâs your move now.â
