    Chapter 951


    Marcus immediately hopped off his desk, dropping his files and walked over to Cornelia, “Cornelia,


    what’s up?”


    Cornelia rushed her words, “Natalia is bruised all over. Dr. Lester needs to check her out and give us


    some topical medication”


    As Cornelia prepared to change Natalia into her pajamas, she discovered a horrifying sight underneath


    Natalia’s clothes her body was covered in wounds


    There were numerous wounds of various sizes, some looking like whip marks, others appearing to be


    from small needles. There was no part of her body under her clothes that was unscathed, Cornelia was


    heartbroken to see this. She knew these wounds were inflicted by the Reese family. How could they


    possibly abuse her if Natalia was their child? This made Cornelia even more certain that Natalia was


    not a Reese. If Natalia wasn’t a Reese, then she had a strong chance of being a Stewart, possibly her


    own sister. The thought of her sister being abused was gut–wrenching.


    Marcusforted her, “Don’t sweat it, let’s get Dr. Lester in here first.”


    Upon entering the room and seeing Natalia’s wounds, Dr. Lester gasped, “How could the Reese family


    do this to their own kid?”


    While treating Natalia’s wounds, he stated, “Till use the best meds for her. Physical scars can be


    healed, but the emotional ones mayst a lifetime.”


    Cornelia understood, “Yeah, I got it. I’ll be there for her.”


    After receiving the medication, Cornelia carefully cleaned Natalia’s wounds and applied the medicine.


    By the time she was done, it was almost dark. She stepped out of the room, the scent of food wafting


    through the air. She followed the smell to the kitchen where she found Marcus busily cooking.

    The man who used to hate the smell of cooking was in the kitchen.


    Cornelia walked over and hugged him from behind, resting her face on his back. Marcusmented,


    “Hungry, huh? Dinner’s almost ready”


    Cornelia held him tighter, not saying a word.


    Feeling the dampness on his back, Marcus quickly dropped what he was doing and held Cornelia,


    “Cornelia, don’t worry. If we can prove she’s your sister, I’ll make sure she stays here, no more


    suffering.”


    In hisforting embrace, Cornelia whispered, “Just let me hold you, don’t talk.”


    The recent events had pushed Cornelia to her limits, but having Marcus by her side made everything


    less scary.


    Marcus just held her in silence.


    After a while, Cornelia lifted her head, “Don’t you have work to do? Why are you cooking?”


    Marcus replied, “I just had a video conference with them. Ben will bring the contract for me to sign


    soon.”


    Cornelia asked, “Ben ising over here?”


    Marcus confirmed, “Yes.”


    As the words left his mouth, the doorbell rang


    Marcus added, “That should be him. My stew is almost done, you go get the door.”


    Cornelia replied, “I don’t want to!”


    Marcus said, “Ben knows about us now.”


    Cornelia asked, “Since when?”


    Marcus answered, “Not too long ago.”


    Cornelia shot Marcus a pitiful look before reluctantly making her way to the door.


    As she opened the door, sure enough, it was Ben standing there. Even though she was prepared,


    Cornelia felt slightly awkward, “Ben…”
