A Replacement Bride

As Katherine saw this scene, her face became extremely dark. She stared at Noah for a full minute, using her gaze to comfort her daughter before shifting her sharp eyes straight toward Emmanuel. "So, it was you. The fox finally decided to show its tail. You played this whole scheme so well, Emmanuel. If you're not going to become an actor, it's a great loss to the entertainment industry."

Her words were full of ridicule, but Emmanuel didn't seem to care. "Miss Cornell, this is called 'all's fair in love and war.' Even if you know it's me, what can you do? You still have to come to me obediently." Then, he smirked mockingly and looked up at the second floor. "Speaking of which, I have to thank you, Miss Cornell. Thanks to you, I had the opportunity to succeed."

After hearing that, she furrowed her brows but didn't say anything.

"If you had come alone, I don't know what I could have done to capture you. Still, who would have thought that you would bring your precious daughter to Kyoland? It's such a good opportunity for me to use, right? This isn’t what I usually do, so you’re the one who gave me this opportunity." Emmanuel's shameless words were spoken so naturally that they made Katherine feel nauseous.

She had not considered the situation well enough and allowed this man to exploit her weakness. She regretted it, but at the moment, it was not the time for regrets. The most important thing was to rescue Noah from these people's hands.

looked at him again with eyes that were as cold as ice. "You went to all this trouble to go after my daughter just to lure me out. Now that I'm here, can you please release my daughter? If there's anything you want, come directly to me. Taking advantage of a young girl is not something to brag about.

not honorable to kidnap your daughter and deceive you to come here, the process doesn't matter to me. The most important thing is the result. As long as I get what I want, any means will do. As for losing reputation, heh, Katherine Cornell, you are

here. Well, what do you want to do? Humiliate me, or maybe kill me? Or should I ask you what your backer wants to do?" She hit the nail

expression, not missing the slight stiffness that passed over his face. Suddenly, she broke into a broad grin, exuding an air of ease and not like someone who had been deceived. "Emmanuel, of course; I know you hate me to the core. After all, I almost bankrupted your Gray Corporation and sent you to try out prison food in the police station for a few days. You naturally hate me and want to kill me to feel better, but at most, you can only think about it in your heart. You can't do so, and you can't do a thing

point, his face darkened. His eyes fiercely glared at her like a wolf, and his cheeks tensed. "What nonsense are you spouting? Who says I can't do a thing

watch yourself become a helpless and powerless loser. Could you walk out of the police station if no one was protecting you?" Then, she continued, "I know exactly who protected you and what he wants to do. You are nothing more than his puppet or a marionette that he can control. He's injected funds into Gray Corporation to help it come back to life, but it's all a scheme to use Gray Corporation to control you.
