Chapter 465
The flight from Riverton to Woodpine took no more than three hours, touching down at Woodpine at
two in the morning.
The temperature swung in Woodpine were a real bear And Cornelia, underdressed as she was, started
feeling the chill immediately after getting off the plane, which even kicked out her sleepiness.
Cornelia followed the crowd towards the airport exit when suddenly, a familiar male voice came from
behind her, “Ms Stewart? Is that you?”
Turning around, Cornelia saw Steven, tall and upright with a smile on his face. His assistant was also
behind him, both of them focusing their attention on Cornelia
Cornelia looked up at the flight information board on the wall, there was a flight that had just landed
from Harbor City to Woodpine, President Dixon, what a coincidence. What brings you here?”

“How come you’re here alone? Didn’t Marc come with you?”
This sentence sounded a bit suggestive. Cornelia quickly clarified her relationship with Marcus, “I’m on
vacation, not here for work. President Hartley is my boss, so it’s unlikely for him to accompany me
here‘
Steven smiled, opened up Marcus’s WhatsApp on his phone: [Marcus, your wife is in Woodpine all by
herself. Are you aware?]
After the message was sent. Steven waited for a while, but didn’t get a reply from Marcus. He tried to
call, but the other party had already turned off their phone
Marcus was a workaholic. His personal and work phones were always on, only turning them off under
special circumstances. Steven guessed that Marcus might be on his way to Woodpine
He laughed, “Ms. Stewart, did Marcus do something to piss you off and you came to Woodpine to blow
off some steam? Tell me how he hurt you, and I’ll give him a piece of my mind
“I’ve told you, Marcus and I are just employee and boss. Please stop making misleading comments.”
Cornelia was a bit annoyed inside, but remained polite on the surface, “How could President Hartley
piss me off”
Steven always had a kind smile on his face, but no one could know what he’s thinking inside.
Cornelia couldn’t see through him and didn’t want to have too much contact with him, “President Dixon,
if there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way”
Steven wasn’t going to let Cornelia go easily. “It’s not convenient to call a cab now. Which hotel are you
heading to? I’ll have my driver drop you off.”
Cornelia replied, “I haven’t booked a hotel yet, no need to trouble you”
Steven said, “Since you haven’t booked a hotel, why don’t you come with me to the hotel near
Hannah’s film set. You and Hannah haven’t seen each other for a while, it would be a good chance to

“Really no need Goodbye” Cornelia turned around and left, trying to get out of Steven’s sight as quickly
as possible.
Her main reason for this visit was to spend time with Hannah, but unfortunately bumped into Steven.
Steven was very possessive; he would never give her and Hannah alone time. So she felt like this trip
was a waste.
Watching Cornelia’s retreating figure, Steven said to his assistant, “Follow her, see which hotel she
checks into.”
Marcus had upset his wife and she had left; he must be looking for her everywhere. At this point, if he
told Marcus about Cornelia’s whereabouts, he could get some benefits
out of him
After leaving the airport, Cornelia hailed a cab and headed straight for downtown. She was planning to
stay there for a couple of days and go find Hannah after Steven left Woodpine.
Woodpine was a tourist city. The tourism industry was booming, with many visitors every year. During
the peak season, the prices of the better hotels could multiply several times and it might even be
impossible to book a room.
