Chapter 1195
Was President Hartley hinting at something? Were President Hartley and Cornelia a couple? Had he been waiting for Cornelia to acknowledge his identity?
Cornelia smiled and said, âLet me introduce, President Hartley is my husbandâ
The two executives turned green with envy. âOh, Ms. Stewartâ¦â¦â¦.â
It seemed a bit weird to call them that though, as they were the CEO and the CEOâs wife of the company!
âYou guys enjoy your meal, weâve also booked a room hereâ Then, Cornelia left, hand in hand with Marcus.
The executives watched their backs, both sighing. âSo the CEOâs wife weâve been curious about has been right under our noses all alongâ
Although Marcus said he was up for anything. Comelia still thoughtfully arranged his favorite dishes, all of which were light in laste. However, Marcus only had a few bites before he stopped eating.
âNot to your laste?â Cornelia asked.
Tm going to use the restroomâ Marcus said.
âOkayâ Cornelia said.
Marcus spent quite a while in the restroom, and by the time he came back, the food had already gone cold. Seeing his pale face, Cornelia asked, âAre you feeling okay?â
Feeling really unwell, Marcus knew he couldnât hide it from Comelia, nor did he intend to. âYeah, Iâm not feeling too good
Cornelia immediately put down her utensils, took out the medication Dr. Lester had given her at noon from her bag. âTake this medicine first. Dr. Lester said itâs specially made and it will help your body.â
Marcus put the pill into his mouth. It couldnât ease his pain, but he wanted Cornelia to rest easy, so he swallowed it. After taking it, he said, âThis medicine works wonders,
feel much better nowâ
Cornelia poured him a glass of water, âHave some water.â
Marcus did as she told.
He tried his best to adjust his condition, making himself appear less weak, quickly fooling Cornelia
She said. âLetâs go home.â
Marcus said, âIâm much better now Didnât you say thereâs a new movie? Letâs go see it.â
Cornelia said, âThere will be plenty of time to watch movies, you need to get better first.â
âI want to goâ Marcus insisted.
Because he knew, he didnât have much time left. If he didnât go this time, he might never have the chance to watch a movie with her.
âThe movie theater is not a good environment, letâs watch at homeâ Cornelia too, was persistent.
So they both compromised, deciding to go back to the Celestial Chateau to watch the movie.
Not long after the movie started, Marcus fell asleep with his head on Corneliaâs shoulder.
Looking at him, Cornelia quietly took out her cell phone and texted Dr. Lester, âDr. Lester, are you sure Marc is okay?â
Dr. Lester replied, âWho said heâs okay? This problem has been bothering him for years, he needs slow recuperation, and he canât be working all the time.â
âIs it really just his old illness acting up?â Cornelia asked
Dr Lester replied, âYou want him to have more problems?â
Marcus had been sleeping next Cornelia for the duration of the film. After the movie ended, Cornelia woke him up.
Marcus smiled at her, âGo get some rest.â
Cornelia responded, âOkayâ
