Chapter 30

Chapter 30 It was about 9 p.m.when Korah woke up. She sat up scared, looked around, and realized that she washome. What happened? Was she not at Ember Hotel? Why was she back? Delilah walked into the room.When she saw that Korah was finally awake, she worriedly, “Korah, how do you feel?” “Mom…” Korahcalmed herself down and shook her head. “I’m fine… Why am I home now?” “Four bodyguards broughtyou home. It was too dangerous. You almost fell into the trap. If it weren’t for them… I’m not sure whatwould have happened to you.” When Mrs. Gardner remembered seeing the four bodyguards carry anunconscious Korah in, she was terrified! Korah sighed in relief. “I’m so grateful for them. If not for them, Iwould be…” Korah was also scared of what had almost happened. Nathan Zuniga was a b*stard! “Don’tworry. Your dad has rewarded those four bodyguards. Remember to say thank you to them when you’reback at the office tomorrow.” “I will.” Korah nodded. Korah was impressed that the four bodyguards wereso strong. She had specially recruited them at a high price! Before Korah became unconscious, she sawthat Nathan’s men were overpowering her bodyguards. She thought everything was over. “Mom, I’m alittle hungry…” “I’ll make you some spaghetti.” Mrs. Gardner immediately went downstairs. After a while,Korah also went downstairs. Cyrus also came back at this time. Korah frowned a little. She wanted tofind a reason to scold Cyrus. But she felt a little embarrassed when she remembered that Cyrus hadgiven her advice after she got off work. Then, she huffed, changed the topic of conversation, and said,“Don’t be late tomorrow. Otherwise, I will cut your pay.” Cyrus nodded. Delilah came out from the kitchenand gently asked, “Cyrie, you’re back. Are you hungry? Do you want to have some spaghetti?’ “No,thank you, Mrs. Gardner.” “Why are you still calling me Mrs. Gardner? You should change how youaddress me!” novelbin

Korah’s expression changed slightly and she interrupted. “Mom, where is the fresh beef? I wanted to addsome to my spaghetti!” “In the fridge…” Cyrus laughed out loud and immediately asked, “Where is Mr. Gardner?” Delilahanswered, “They had an emergency to attend to at the company, so they went out.” “Okay… Then, I willtake a bath and head to bed.”

Korah froze a little. She certainly knew that Cyrus purposely said that in front of her. When he saw thatKorah was not protesting, Cyrus immediately went upstairs. The next day, Cyrus realized that theatmosphere in the car was dreary. “Dad… I’m sorry.” In the passenger seat, Korah looked a littledepressed. Wade sighed. “It’s not your fault. We did not expect Nathan to act so boldly. He is sodespicable Cyrus frowned gently. He could not help but ask, “Did anything happen to the company?” Wade ignoredCyrus’ question. Korah replied agitatedly, “You make it sound like you don’t know!” “It has nothing to do with you. Stop asking!” Cyrus frowned and did not understand. Was Edmund foolinghim? Had Edmund not settled Nathan? If that was true… Cyrus’ gaze instantly became ruthless! At Team Four’s office in the ProjectDepartment… “Cyrus!” Ekialde smiled and greeted him. He had returned to work. Cyrus nodded. “Areyou feeling better?”
