Chapter 580


    Chapter 580


    [Mr. Rivera had me fake it as a couple with that guy, even threatened me that if I didn’t make it


    convincing, he’d let the guy have his way with me. To protect myself, I had no choice but to act my


    heart out. I thought Mr. Rivera did this to put on a show for Marcus‘ wife, but I didn’t expect you to show


    up. That’s one thing I couldn’t figure out


    Cornelia said [Give it some time, you should understand then)


    So much happened that night and so much to say But when Marcus faced her questions, he didn’t give


    a single excuse.


    He just asked her if she would trust him. He trusted her, and he hoped she would trust him too.


    Sometimes his world was so simple, it was almostughable.


    Natalia said. [Cornelia, when you asked me that day, I wasn’t trying to deceive you. It’s because Mr.


    Rivera wouldn’t let me talk. I was afraid that if I said anything, he would do something to me]


    Comelia said [I understand now]


    Natalia said [Those previous messages were sent by my mom. I really want to be friends with you. Can


    you stop deleting me?]


    Cornelia nodded [Alright]


    Natalia sent a cute emoji, plus a message [Cornelia, once I’m free, I’lle find you]


    Comelia asked [Where has your mom locked you up?]


    Natalia replied. [The Reese family mansion. It’s not bad here, although I can’t go out and see the world.


    At least I’m not getting beaten up every day]


    After sending the message, Natalia realized her slip–up. She hurried to recall the message, but


    Cornelia had already seen it.


    She didn’t want to say any more about this, and Cornelia didn’t feel right prying, digging up someone


    else’s wounds.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    Last time, when Natalia asked her to meet, wanting to make amends, Cornelia noticed Natalia’s


    bruised lip, and today’s message confirmed her suspicion. Cornelia tactfully said: [Natalia, you’ve done


    me a big favor today. I owe you one. If there’s anything you need, just say it.]


    Natalia said (My mom ising, don’t reply to my messages anymore]


    Cornelia didn’t message Natalia again, worrying a single message would cause trouble for Natalia.


    Lying in bed, Cornelia looked carefully at the messages Natalia sent.


    The person wanting to drive her out of Riverton wasn’t just ir. Last year Courtney and Eden tried the


    same, but failed due to Marcus‘ intervention


    As long as Marcus didn’t want her gone, Courtney couldn’t drive her out of town. That shouldn’t be a


    secret, so why was ir so confident?


    Could it be?


    Thinking of this possibility, Cornelia shivered. Her afternoon drowsiness half gone.
