Chapter 648 Replaced

"What did you misunderstand?" Sally questioned.

"It's not exactly a misunderstanding. It's more like I've overestimated my importance. I'm not asimportant to certain people as I thought. I can easily be replaced,” Cora said, taking the last sip ofher drink from the glass.

She was laughing at herself.

She was making fun of herself, laughing at that she believed Byron had come to the Royal Club'sfourth floor just for her, ridiculing her assumption that he had brought the drinks for her.However, Elena's timely appearance from his private room shattered her presumptions.

Cora repeatedly reminded herself, thinking, "Even without Byron, I survived for four years, didn't I?So, there's no need to make a big deal out of it."

Yet, she couldn't ignore the overwhelming emptiness in her heart. It felt like something had beenscooped out, leaving her feeling miserable. In a desperate attempt to numb the pain, Cora pouredanother glass of alcohol and gulped it down

Seeing Cora so distressed, Sally decided to throw caution to the wind and join Cora in drinking.

As a result, both of them ended up getting heavily drunk.

By the time the party ended, Sally and Cora were utterly intoxicated.

Tyler had to ask Matt to take Sally back while he took it upon himself to see Cora safely back to theYoris Mansion...

The following morning, Cora awoke in an unfamiliar setting, feeling dazed.

Yet, after seeing Martin sleeping peacefully beside her, she instantly felt calm.

After planting a soft kiss on Martin's cheek, she rolled out of bed to begin her morning routine.

As per the original plan, she had planned to take Martin to explore some kindergartens that day.Although Byron, Sara, and Nora suddenly acquired several kindergartens, Cora decided to let Martingrow up in a typical environment.

So they agreed not to reveal Martin's identity, even if he enrolled in kindergarten.

Sara was initially against it, but when she saw Cora's determination, she reluctantly gave in.

As Cora finished getting ready and came downstairs to prepare Martin's breakfast, she noticed thatSara was already busy in the kitchen.

When Sara saw Cora, she quickly brought a hangover remedy, asking, "Does your head hurt? Here,drinks this hangover remedy."

With a slight headache from the hangover, Cora wasted no time and drank the hangover remedy."You shouldn't drink so much. It's not good for your health,” Sara advised.

Dark circles were prominent under Sara's eyes, and her complexion had lost its usual luster, a classicsign of staying late.

Cora suddenly recalled her hazy state last night and how someone was by her side offering herwater, wiping her face, and tucking her in.

She realized it must have been Sara taking care of her all night.

This feeling of being cared for and pitied was something Cora had never experienced before in herlife.

It was subtle yet profoundly touching, resonating with her emotions.

It made her realize that she wasn't living in this world all alone anymore.

Perhaps because her heart had been touched, Cora's attitude towards Sara softened noticeably.

"I got it. You should rest at home this morning. I'll take Martin to visit the kindergarten instead,”Cora suggested.

"It's fine, I." Sara started to decline, but when she saw the concern in Cora’s eyes, she was deeplytouched.

"Alright then, I'll do as you say," Sara replied.

After Cora and Martin finished the breakfast prepared by Sara, they headed out to visit thekindergartens.

Cora and Martin visited a total of three kindergartens, but two of them rejected Martin when theyknew that he couldn't speak.

The only one that didn't reject him was the one previously acquired by Byron.

However, Cora didn't feel discouraged and thoroughly inspected every aspect of the schoolAfterward, Cora completed the enrollment process for Martin.
