    Chapter 299


    Before Marcus could even ask, Cornelia was already filling him in on what went down in Europe. “A car


    bomb went off in Paris, our Alfactory branch got hit. There are casualties but we haven’t got the


    numbers yet Our PR departments already on damage controlforting the families of the employees,


    but they’re pretty shook up and mightsh out. You need to get there and handle things personally


    *Tell Paris to spare no expense in getting our people treated andforting the families of the dead”


    Marcus decided on the spot. “We’re flying out to Pans right away”


    And so, Com followed suit, trailing Marcus to the arport to catch a flight to Paris


    Just as she was about to text Jeremy about her sudden business trip, he beat her to it “Comelia, I


    heard you’re flying off to Pans with Marcus and don’t know when you’ll be back Works important but so


    is looking after yourself Youll be a stranger in a strangend with no friends or family to lean on Always


    put your safety first. Remember Granny Reba and I will be waiting for you back in Rosenberg Got


    it?” This was the first time Jeremy had ever sent her such a long message it warmed her heart and


    eased her worries about the unknown journey ahead


    “Get it she replied


    “Safe frames be waiting for your return” Jeremy texted back


    Come held her phone tightly and replied with a simple, “Okay!”


    After finishing the conversation with Jeremy Cornelia initiated a video call with Granny Reba


    “Granny. I’m going on a business top to Paris with my boss it might get quite busy, so I won’t be able to


    video chat every day Please take care of yourself”


    “Don’t worry about me, sweetie Granny Luisa is here. Just focus on your work. However, since it’s your


    first time going somewhere so far away, make sure to take care of yourself Just send me a text every


    day to let me know you’re safe” Granny Reba replied attempting to conceal her emotions, although


    Carnelia could sense her worry


    Granny Reba was concerned about Cornelia but didn’t want to burden her with additional worries.


    She always supported Cornelia in whatever she chose to do


    Not wanting to upset her grandmother, Comelia said, “Okay, Granny My fight’s about to take off I still


    need to tell Zack and the others, so filhang up now”


    Soon after, she sent a message in their group chat informing them about her sudden trip to Paris with


    Marcus


    The moment she hit send Zack called, “Nelly, you’re really flying out to Paris with Marcus? Why didn’t


    we hear about this sooner? Couldn’t they get someone else? Why does it have to be you? You don’t


    have the experience What if Marcus tries something?”

    Zack’s barrage of questions and his rambling showed how worried he was for Comelia


    “Don’t worry, our whole team is going to ns Plus, Marcus is our friend, he won’t do anything over the


    line.” Cornelia reassured him with a smile


    Abigail chimed in. “Be careful out there, don’t trust people too easily, especially at night Try not to go


    out alone. I heard Paris’s not too safe when the sun goes down.”


    Hearing these words of concern didn’t bother Corne, it warmed her heart. To het Zack and Abigail


    weren’t just filends, they were family. They were an integral part of her life. “Abigail, don’t worry, I’ll be


    careful”


    Zack added, “No matter how you leave,e back in one piece. Not a hair on your head less”


    Cornelia joked. “But I’ve been losing hair recently, what should I do? Should I bring back all the hairs I


    shed?”
