Chapter 136

Cornelia’s work phone is always on, and shell pick up right away whenever Marcus calls, tonight being no exception President Hartley, hello

She was always so polite and courteous with her first line when answering the phone, making it impossible for him to detect her mood from her tone. He coughed Twice, and immediately heard Cornelia’s worried voice, President Hartley do you have a cold?”

This was Assistant Cornelia caring for her boss Marcus, not Wife Cornelia caring for her husband Jeremy Marcus didn’t really need this kind of care “It’s going to snow soon. Remember to close the windows “Finally, he said this line and hung up.

He took out his personal phone, and the three people in the group chat reminded him one by one, “Marc, say something”

Marcus typed a few words, 7 want to walk the future path with her.”

Lucas replied. “Yeah, a man should be good to his wife”

Steven, “Let me know if you need any help”

Zavier. “After the 3033 Tech Conference, Skyler Blue and I will treat you and your wife to dinner.”

Marcus, “Okay”

For the next few days, Cornelia and the Hartley Group team were fully devoted to the tech conference, working from morning till night, even meal times were tight.

Not only did Cornelia have to focus on work, but she also had to keep an eye on Marcus’s health.

Thankfully, Marcus was very obedient. Whatever she said, he followed without causing her any trouble.

Four days later, the 3033 Tech Conference came to a successful end, and the New Year’s Day holiday arrived.

Cornelia booked flights back to Riverton for the team that night so everyone could go home for the holidays. However, due to weather conditions, the flights were canceled, and everyone was stranded at Sunset Bay Resort.

Cornelia sat in the living room, holding her tablet, constantly checking the weather and flight information.

“Cornelia, take a break” Ben handed Cornelia a bottle of water and sat down beside her, saying, “Honestly, I respect no one but you.”

“Why me?”

“A few months ago, when you first started working with President Hartley, you adapted to his work intensity. That’s when I first admired you. This high–intensity conference, you make sure President Hartley eats on time, which makes me even more impressed. I’ve been with President Hartley for seven or eight years, I know he has a bad stomach, but I can’t make him eat on time amidst his busy schedule”

Cornelia knew Marcus’s obedient was not because of her, “The person you should admire is not me, but President Hartley’s wife”

“Before, President Hartley didn’t let us mention his wife. Why did he suddenly let the PR department announce his marriage?”

“Because President Hartley and his wife resolved their issues, and he loves his wife so much, of course, he should announce it. These days, when he didn’t eat on time, I brought up his wife to talk to him, and he really was obedient

“So President Hartley’s wife has such an influence? I’ll learn from that next time!”

Cornelia was also very curious, “Ben, do you know what she looks like?”

Tve never seen her, how would I know what she looks like?”

Cornelia was surprised, “You’ve been with President Hartley for so many years, and even you haven’t seen his wife?”

“Actually, you don’t know, President Hartley’s marriage is not…. Halfway through, he realized he had said something he shouldn’t have

He quickly changed the subject, “Let’s not discuss this anymore. With the snow so heavy now and unable to go outside, how should we spend our afternoon?”
