A Replacement Bride

Chapter 98

"You…" Just as Elvis was going to say something to Katherine, she took out her phone and walked away while answering the call after taking a glance. Just like that, Elvis' raised hand stiffened mid-air. As he watched her walk away, he found it a pity.

"Dad, why are you calling me at this moment? Did something happen?" Katherine asked. Although her tone was full of concern, there was a cold smile on her lips.

As Jorge heard the concern in Katherine's voice, he thought that she was much better than Rosemary. Ever since the Cornell Family fell into trouble, Rosemary did not care about him and even disappeared from his sight. Unlike her, Katherine cared for him and even asked Joaquin to help them out. Sadly, Joaquin was a stubborn person and refused to provide them with any.

"Do you have time today, Kathy? I was hoping that you would be able to come home as I miss you dearly. There haven't been many people in the house since everything happened." Jorge sighed, and his tone was filled with loneliness.

"Okay, I'll be back in a moment," Katherine replied without any hesitation. After hanging up the phone, she sneered in disdain before going back to her car.

"Are you leaving, Miss Cornell?" Seeing that she had returned, Elvis quickly greeted her.

"Yes, I have some urgent business to do." She nodded her head politely.

Katherine was still unsure whether he was the Lone Wolf and could not ask him directly as it would alert him. As such, she decided to establish a relationship with him. Lone Wolf was the best mercenary worldwide, and he never failed the missions he accepted. Unfortunately, he had not taken any commission for years.

The research that she was doing had an important task that would need a reliable person to complete. After pondering for a moment, she realized that Lone Wolf was the only one who was qualified to do so. That was why she appeared at Nebula Club to find him.

"Do you need me to give you a ride?" Elvis jiggled the car keys in his hand with enthusiasm.

Looking at her own keys in her hands, Katherine smiled at him politely.

"Right, I forgot that you have a car." Elvis scratched the back of his head awkwardly.
