Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband ( Cora Lane ) - Season 4 Episode 14

“I envy Dr. Lane. Byron dotes on her so much,” Evelyn teased, not waiting for Cora’s response.

Her playful demeanor made it hard to believe she was the same person who had a physical altercation

with Cora earlier.

However, Evelyn quickly changed the subject. “I just don’t understand. With someone like Byron by her

side, why would

there be any scandalous rumors about Dr. Lane?”

Before Nora could respond, Margaret interjected, “What

scandal?”

“It’s…”

Evelyn was about to mention the incident where someone had posted a sensitive photo of Cora in the

hospital.

Before she could continue, a sharp sound cut through the air.

Startled, Evelyn looked over and saw a knife stuck into a mango that Nora had just placed in front of

Cora.

As the knife moved with a sway, its blade gleamed with an unsettling coldness, sending shivers down everyone’s spine.

“Dr. Lane, what is the meaning of this…?”

Nora couldn’t shake off the fact she had just placed the knife

in Cora’s hands, and now it was impaled into the mango.

However, nobody could grasp how the knife had flown out.

Margaret gulped nervously.

Cora’s glistening eyes glanced at Margaret and Evelyn. It felt like the knife wasn’t meant for the mango

but for them.

“Sorry, my hand slipped!”

Under their slightly panicked expressions, Cora calmly

removed the knife from the mango.

“I do housework at home as well. However, I have more experience with surgical knives, and one can

be quite creative

with them!”

With a swift motion, Cora expertly sliced the mango into two halves, effortlessly separating the skin and

the core.

Oddly enough, the mango seemed unusually cooperative, not spilling a drop of its abundant juice,

Her fingers, each one perfectly rounded and emitting a subtle radiance, presented a captivating scene

reminiscent of a food

advertisement.

The three witnesses couldn’t help but feel a chilling sensation down their spines. It was as if Cora’s

gestures were directed at them but not toward the mango.

When Byron and the kitchen staff arrived with the

cheesecake, they found Cora arranging the freshly cut fruits on a platter. However, Nora and Evelyn

appeared somewhat

dazed.

Everything appeared harmonious on the surface, yet there was an underlying sense that something

was amiss!

“Why did you cut the fruits yourself? You could have asked the kitchen staff to do it,” Byron said, pulling

Cora aside. “Let me take you to wash your hands.”

Cora didn’t refuse the offer. Her hands were stained with mango juice despite her skillful cutting.

As she put down the knife, Cora offered a charming smile.

“Excuse us.”

She looked nothing like the gloomy woman who had just

their spines.

It was as if she had a different persona for every occasion.

Cora had made up her mind. If Nora wanted to play games, she was more than willing to play along.

“Why don’t we try the cheesecake? I had them add some raisins for a unique twist,” Nora suggested.

Nora saw through Cora’s intentions to use her tactics against her.

Nora knew enough to remain calm and didn’t allow herself to be flustered. She quickly regained her

composure and resumed her usual graciousness toward the guests.

“Yes, the cake tastes even better with the raisin,” Nora replied smoothly.

“Indeed, the aroma is much more refreshing now. What’s the proportion of the raisin? I’ll have someone

make it for everyone back home,” Evelyn added.

Evelyn and Margaret tasted the cheesecake and began discussing it, seemingly forgetting about the

earlier gossip regarding Cora.

5/5

Cora’s demeanor had made them feel apprehensive about speaking ill in front of the powerful Hansen

family. They feared that daring to gossip might lead to a fate akin to the mango sliced apart before

them.
