Chapter 1054
Chapter 1054:
Once they sat down, Vulture ignored the hidden eyes and got straight to the point. “The Hopkins family has a tangled web. Trust me, you don’t want to get caught up in this mess.”
He spoke with no hidden agenda. If there was any, it was simply the hope that Corrine wouldn’t find herself in trouble.
Corrine’s fingers tapped lightly on her coffee cup as she took a sip. “I have my reasons. I can’t stay out of it.”
Vulture fell silent at that.
He studied her closely, his gaze sharp, as if trying to catch even the slightest change in her expression.
After a long pause, he sighed and swallowed. “Are you sure about this? Don’t you want to rethink it?”
Corrine set her cup down and replied calmly, “Once I make up my mind, I don’t look back.”
Her voice was casual, but there was a firm, resolute edge to it.
For a brief moment, Vulture was reminded of that early morning when Corrine had decided to leave.
At the time, they had thought it was just a passing impulse, something she might change her mind about after a good night’s sleep.
But when the morning came, all that was left was a letter.
In a few simple lines, she summed up the year they had spent together, and then disappeared without a trace, as though she had never been there.
After what felt like an eternity, Vulture pushed aside his thoughts and let out a soft laugh. “Alright, you always stick to your decisions. Since you’ve made up your mind, I won’t keep on at you. But, just so you know, the mess inside the Hopkins family is worse than you think. You’d better be ready.”
Hawk chimed in with a grin, saying, “What’s there to be afraid of? Our Corrine is a force to be reckoned with. If anyone should be worried, it’s them. Even if things go south, we’ve got your back!”

Though it was said jokingly, it was clear they stood behind Corrine without hesitation.
Corrine glanced up at the two of them, her eyes softening with a quiet smile.
After parting ways with Corrine, Vulture and Hawk went to their separate rooms.
Once they had freshened up, they leaned back against the headboards, scrolling through their phones while discussing the car accident that had happened at the intersection with Corrine and Nate.
“Do you think that accident was meant for Nate or for Corrine?” Hawk messaged, his mind working over the possible motives. Given the mess with the Hopkins family, he couldn’t help but wonder if there was more to the crash.
If it was meant for Nate, shouldn’t it have been handled more quietly? They’d been patient for years. It didn’t make sense to rush things just when Nate was back on the Independent Continent.noveldrama
Vulture, cigarette dangling from his lips, replied, “Lone Ranger said it was the Hopkins family behind it. Whether it was meant for Nate or Corrine, it won’t do them any good.”
