Chapter 182

Just as she sent the message, Marcus’s call came through. Cornelia hurriedly answered, President

Hartley”

Where are you?” Marcus’s voice carried a hint of resignation

Cornelia checked her GPS, “I be home in two or three kilometers”

“Alright, hang up when you get home. Then his voice disappeared from the earpiece

If it werent for the call duration ticking away on her phone screen, she would have thought he had hung

up.

The 3–kilometer journey didn’t take long. The taxi driver stopped the car across the street from the

northern gate of her neighborhood, “Miss, they’re doing roadwork ahead I can’t turn the car around.

You’ll have to go by yourself”

“Okay” Cornelia got out of the car. The driver kindly helped her with her suitcase and then drove off.

To the right of the northern gate was Riverside Park With its lush vegetation and scarce traffic at night,

it always gave off an eerie vibe

Cornela, dragging her suitcase, was about to cross the street when a van sped by, forcing her to retreat

to the curb, She decided to wait for the van to pass before crossing

Little did she know, the speeding van screeched to a halt before her. Two men wearing baseball caps

and masks jumped out and forcefully dragged her into the van

“What are you doing?” Cornelia barely managed to get the words out before a calloused hand covered

her mouth, and her phone clattered to the ground.

“Cornelia, Cornelia. “Marcus’s anxious voice rang from the phone, but the kidnapped Cornelia couldn’t

hear him anymore

Inside the van, the hand covering Cornelia’s mouth was removed and replaced with duct tape. “Just

behave. No one’s saving you tonight.”

Cornelia, unable to speak, observed with her eyes, three men in the van, one driving, two holding her.

Their actions were too practiced, they must do this often

She had never crossed any thugs, so this was likely someone’s revenge

Who could it be?

Courtney Kamp–Hartley?

Cornelia quickly dismissed this possibility. Marcus himself had said that Courtney wouldn’t bother her

again, and she trusted him.

Who else could it be?

Who had she pissed off during her time in Riverton?

Who would be bold enough to go to these lengths to harm her?

Suddenly, a name popped into Cornelia’s head – Eden Petersen!

Eden had hated her to the bone and she had once sent him to jail. He must want revenge after getting

out.

Buzz Buzz Buzz-

Cornelia’s personal phone in her bag started to vibrate, the sound echoing loudly in the van.

One of the men snatched Cornelia’s bag and pulled out her phone. Out of the corner of her eye,

Cornelia saw the name “Jeremy” on the screen.

The man tore off the sealant from her mouth, “Who’s on the phone?” “It’s my husband.” In an instant,

Cornelia felt a glimmer of hope. She had never expected Jeremy to call at this moment

“Sir, let me answer the call, I just told him I was almost home. If he doesn’t hear from me, I’m afraid hell

call the police.”
