The Jilted Heiress' Return To The High Life

Chapter 1032:

Just as she was about to end the call, Lone Ranger spoke again. “How long have you been dealing with the Hopkins family over there? They seem calm on the surface, but there’s a lot of internal tension. The weaker branches are teaming up against the main family. It’s a hotbed for conflict. You’d do well to stay clear of their drama.”

“Got it.”

Corrine had already suspected this, so the warning didn’t catch her off guard. If the Hopkins family had truly been peaceful, they wouldn’t have reacted so quickly when Nate returned to the Independent Continent.

“I’ve shared everything. Stay careful out there. Let me know if anything happens,” Lone Ranger advised. Then, as an afterthought, he added, “Make sure you add me on WhatsApp! Don’t forget!”

“I know.”

Corrine ended the call.

Corrine had first met Lone Ranger during the Forestvale crisis. Back then, she had been searching through the wreckage for survivors when she’d heard a faint voice coming from an alley.noveldrama

It was Lone Ranger. He had been shot in the left shoulder. Though he had managed to stop the bleeding for a while, he would have died without help.

Finding him alive amid the chaos felt like fate to Corrine.

She remembered how, despite losing so much blood and drifting in and out of consciousness, he had stubbornly cursed to keep himself awake.

She quickly gave him first aid and rushed him to the hospital.

Over time, they got to know each other better.

After they added each other on WhatsApp, Lone Ranger quickly messaged, “You can’t get rid of me again.”

Corrine typed back, “I’ll try my best to stay in touch.”

She sat down in a chair on the porch and opened the email.

It was a list, with one entry highlighted in red showing the car ID and owner details.

Corrine stared at the owner’s name.

Could someone in the Hopkins family have orchestrated the accident?

Was it the main family, or one of the collateral branches?

Something didn’t quite add up.

Why were they so sure that chasing Nate with three cars would kill him? If the plan didn’t work, it would definitely warn him.

It seemed the person behind it had thought of that too. That was why they’d chosen the Mercedes-Benz G63 6X6.

But the car model was rare on the Independent Continent and easy to track.

It seemed like the person thought they had covered their tracks, but they had left a glaring clue.

The attempt on Nate’s life didn’t add up.
