Chapter 105 A Purple Mark

“Then why is he still delaying meeting me for so long?”

“I think you know better than me why Mr. Gage won’t meet with you, Ms. Youngblood.”

“What do you mean by that?” Cordelia knitted her brows.

Seeing Cordelia feign ignorance when she already knew the answer, the female secretary had no

choice but to shrug her shoulders and reply, “Considering that you’re all businesspeople, Mr. Gage

thought at first to save you some embarrassment and let you give up gracefully. However, since you

insist on being obstinate, don’t blame me for speaking bluntly. There’s no way Mr. Gage will collaborate

with you.”

“Why not?” Cordelia pressed, feeling puzzled.

The secretary glanced at her disdainfully, wondering whether she genuinely did not know the reason or

was only pretending not to know.

“Ms. Youngblood, look up Cordelia Group online on your own. You’ll be able to find out why,” she

answered impatiently before leaving the reception area in her high heels.

Cordelia looked flummoxed. What’s going on?

There was a knot of confusion in her stomach as she turned on her laptop and typed “Cordelia Group”

into the search bar. After she read the first article that popped up, her pretty face instantly turned as

pale as a sheet.

Breaking news! Cordelia Group’s beautiful CEO, Cordelia Youngblood, has an extremely messy

personal life. While hooking up with South River King, Osmond Langdon, she also secretly has a

toyboy at the same time…

Such articles were already everywhere in Jadeborough. However, since Jadeborough was just a small

city compared to the state of Jazona, the news had not blown up as quickly as one would imagine. As

such, one would not simply come across those articles unless they searched specific keywords. That

was why Cordelia had not seen those articles until now.

If that secretary hadn’t mentioned it, I probably would’ve been in the dark until I returned to

Jadeborough.

Emrys had been standing behind Cordelia, so he had seen the articles too. A terrifying look of

murderous intent filled his eyes. We haven’t left Jadeborough all that long, yet something so serious

has happened. Whoever did this deserves to rot in hell!

He strode out of Gage Group, then phoned Osmond and asked, “What’s with the slanderous articles?”

“It was… the Chalker family’s doing!”

Over in North River District, Osmond had been brooding over the matter. His mind was still in a daze

when he received the call. As it turns out, Empyrean Lord doesn’t know about it yet!

“The Chalkers, eh? How dare they! Osmond, go and prepare a larger coffin immediately. I want to

celebrate that old geezer of the Chalker family’s birthday early.”

“Right. I’ll get on it at once!” After Osmond hung up the phone, he appeared more at ease.

Thomas and the others asked, “What happened?”

“Empyrean Lord is livid. He’ll probably destroy the Chalker family today. All of you, hurry up and

prepare whatever gifts you can find. We’re sending over a big present to that family in advance,”

Osmond replied while cackling wildly. I was down in the dumps earlier, not expecting that retribution

would get served so quickly. There’s no need to wait for another two or three days. Today, we’ll be able

to go all out and vent the anger we’ve been suppressing in our hearts! How can I not be excited?

Cordelia and Emrys made their way back to Jadeborough as quickly as possible.

While she hurried to Cordelia Group to discuss public relations strategy on handling the matter with her

employees, he prepared to go and look for Osmond. However, he received a phone call on the way

there.

“Rys…”

It was Yelena. Her voice sounded very weak.

With anxiety written all over his face, he hurriedly asked, “Lena, what’s the matter?”

However, there was no answer from the other end of the line.

“Aargh!” Letting out a furious roar, he hastily activated the Telepathic Formation and found Yelena’s

location a second later.

He rushed there immediately.

By the time he found Yelena, she had collapsed in a field. The bite wound on the back of her hand had

turned a purplish–black color. On top of that, a purple mark measuring ten centimeters had appeared

on her arm.
