Chapter 396

Skyler whipped up a feast quicker than she could say ‘abracadabra’. There was beef and lamb, heaps

of seafood, and the cherry on top was a scallop the size of her palm.

Cornelia joked, “Your farm doesn’t breed scallops, does it?”

Skyler replied, “No, but we’re close to the sea. If you’re craving fresh seafood, you can just hop in the

car and head to the market.”

Cornelia, a foodie at heart, said, “Skyler, what am I gonna do? You treat me so well, I might just wanna

stay here forever.”

Skyler laughed, “If you’ve got time, feel free to hang around for a few days. And when you’re free, you

can drop by anytime.”

Cornelia asked, “Are you planning to live here long term? Does the farm owner treat you well? Is your

salary good? Do you have money to spend?”

Skyler chuckled, “Cornelia, this farm is actually mine.”

Cornelia gasped, “Yours?”

Skyler nodded, “My dad gifted me this farm when I was born. It was managed by a trust company, so it

was off my family’s books. When my family hit the rocks, this farm went unnoticed. Over the years, I’ve

had people run it for me. It’s not making me a millionaire, but it’s definitely enough to keep me fed and

watered. So, you don’t need to worry about me.”

Cornelia had been worried sick about Skyler running out of money. She’d even set aside some cash for

her, but it turned out she was fretting over nothing.

Even though Skyler’s family wasn’t what it used to be, she still had a decent chunk of change. What

she had was more than she could ever earn in Cornelia’s lifetime.

They chatted away as they tucked into their meal.

After a while, Skyler finally asked the question she’d been dying to ask but was too afraid to, “Cornelia,

did Zavier give you any trouble because you helped me get from the Capital to Riverton and then I

vanished without a trace?”

The mention of Zavier made the juicy steak in Cornelia’s mouth lose its flavor, “No, Zavier wouldn’t

dare mess with me, not with President Hartley around.”

Skyler breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s a relief.”

-Cornelia said, “Skyler.”

Skyler responded, “Hmm?”

Cornelia continued, “If, I mean just if, Zavier found you, would you…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Skyler turned as pale as a ghost, “Cornelia, does Zavier, know

I’m here?”

“Yes! Zavier knows where you are!” Cornelia wanted to spill the beans but couldn’t.

Marcus Hartley was right. As long as Skyler didn’t know Zavier had found her, she could live her life

free as a bird, just the way she wanted.

Skyler had only just managed to get out from under Zavier’s thumb. Cornelia didn’t want her to go back

under it, “Skyler, don’t freak out. I was just saying. You’ve got nothing to worry about. Zavier doesn’t

have any pull in France. He can’t find you.”

“That’s true.” Skyler took a deep breath, “If he knew where I was, he would have sent someone to drag

me back by now. He wouldn’t let me live my life freely.”
