Chapter 1161

Meanwhile, Cornelia was riding shotgun in Ayden’s whip, heading towards Grandpa Augustine’s crib. But just as they

entered the Capital, Ayden smelled a rat, “Cornelia, we got a tail”

Cornelia also noticed a strange car tailing them. At first, she thought it might be Grandpa Augustine’s protection

detail. But as the car got closer, she realized it wasn’t the same fleet she saw earlier in the day.

“Could it be Zavier’s goons?” She wondered.

Ayden nodded, flooring the gas, Zavier took Skyler’s death hard. He’s lost his marbles. He blames you for Skyler’s

death, so he’s got a major beef with you. Even though he knows better than to mess with the Duran family, I won’t

put it past him to make a move on you”

After a short pause, Ayden continued, “The Capital is Zavier’s turf. Right now, it’s just you and me against him, so it

won’t be a walk in the park. Can you contact Grandpa Augustine and get him to send some backup? I’ll try to hold

off Zavier’s men as long as I can.”

“Alright, I’ll call him right now.” Cornelia immediately dialed Grandpa Augustine.

She didn’t want to worry him, but given that his people might be nearby, asking Grandpa Augustine for help was the

smart move.

Hearing the news, Grandpa Augustine was both angry and worried, “I’ve set up so much protection for you, where

the hell are they now? Nelly, don’t worry, I’ll send someone for you right away.”

Cornelia responded, “Grandpa Augustine, I’m not scared. Even if Zavier gets me, he can’t do anything to me. I can

handle him.”

Even though she said she had a plan, she didn’t really have anything up her sleeve. She just wanted to reassure

Grandpa Augustine. But even without a specific plan, she knew she had to think of some strategies in case she

ended up in Zavier’s clutches, so she could get herself out of the jam.

Grandpa Augustine replied, “Alright, stay on the line. I need to know what’s going on.”

Cornelia responded with a laugh, “Grandpa Augustine, I’m not alone. I have Ayden with me. You might not know

Ayden, but he’s worked with Marcus for many years. He’s very capable and someone Marcus values highly.”

Grandpa Augustine said, “Put me on speaker. I want to have a word with him.”

“Sure.” Cornelia put the call on speaker and heard Grandpa Augustine say, “Ayden, I know you. Protect Nelly.

Whatever you desire, as long as you perform your job, I’ll take care of it.”

Grandpa Augustine made a big promise, but Ayden didn’t flinch, “I’m here to protect Cornelia as per Mr. Hartley’s

orders. It’s my duty. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her safe, no matter what.”

Grandpa Augustine replied, “Well done! But remember, as long as you keep Nelly safe, you’ll be get rewards from

me as well.”

As the saying went, people did anything for the right price. If the incentive was attractive enough, nothing was

impossible.

Ayden didn’t say anything else, but he looked a bit uneasy.

“Grandpa Augustine, you don’t need to say anything else.” Cornelia knew Ayden well enough to know that he

wouldn’t be swayed by money. He was willing to risk his life for Marcus.

Grandpa Augustine replied, “Alright, enough said. I’ve already sent people to look for you, don’t be scared.”

But before he could finish, there was a screech of brakes and Ayden’s voice, “Cornelia, hold on!”

Due to inertia, Cornelia was thrown forward, then pulled back by her seatbelt, slamming into her seat. She felt like

she was about to be torn apart.

A few seconds later, once she adjusted, she looked out the window. Their car was surrounded by several others. If

Ayden hadn’t hit the brakes in time, they would’ve rammed into the car in front of them.
