NovelBookChapter 1135: Presley, ever observant, quickly brought over a chair. “Miss Holland, please.” Corrine took the chair, pulled it over, and sat down, facing Darrion.
"Andromache has been your shadow and shield these past days. So, tellwhere is she now? Why isn't she here to save you?" Corrine lounged with one leg crossed over the other, her posture exuding a nonchalant elegance that barely concealed the razor-sharp edge beneath.

Just then, her phone buzzed. Seeing Hawk's non the screen, she answered with unhurried ease. "Andromache's virtual currency platform has crashed. What's your next move?" Hawk's voice was steady yet laced with curiosity. "From what I hear, her family's cast her aside, and she doesn't have many business ventures here. Now that you've shattered her most valuable asset, aren't you afraid she'll do something reckless?" Hawk wasn't worried about Corrine's safety-his concern was Nate.
After all, Andromache was Nate's relative.
If Nate learned that Corrine had been systematically dismantling Andromache's businesses, Hawk feared he wouldn't take it lightly.
Corrine's brows arched slightly, her eyes glinting with amusement. “Afraid? I'm only afraid she'll stay quiet." She paused, her voice cooling to steel. "Wipe out all her remaining operations on the Independent Continent." Ending the call, she twirled the charm on her phone idly, her tone light yet cutting. "You know, I've always loved a good family reunion. Rest assured—I'll make sure you all meet again... in prison." Darrion's face paled, panic flickering in his eyes. "What do you really want? If you have a grudge, take it out on me. Don't drag innocent people into this!" Read more at gvlnovom "Innocent?" Corrine's voice dripped with derision, her smile a cold slash. "The only innocent one here is Karina! She didn't know about the Hopkins family's internal conflict, had no part in your schemes-yet you pulled her into this mess for your own selfish gain. What right do you have to preach about protecting the innocent?" Darrion fell silent, his throat bobbing as he struggled to find words. Before meeting Corrine, he had believed the rumors—that she was just a stunning beauty, nothing more. Last night shattered that illusion.
The woman before him was not just striking-she was cold, ruthless, and calculating.
It made sense. Birds of a feather flock together. If she had been m a nothing more than a delicate flower, how could she have captured Nate's attention?
Corrine's voice pulled him from his thoughts. "From what I understand, the relationship between the O M Om collateral branches and the main family is anything but harmonious. So why is your bond with Andromache so strong?"
