Chapter 304
Ben asked nervously âPresident Hartley, did I do something wrong?â
Marcus coldly replied. âStop sucking up to Cornelia all the time I cant even get her to notion me, let alone youâ
That was a subtle hint at Berâs average looks
Feeling winged Ben said. âPresident Harties when have I been sucking up to Cornelia? Besides were both your assistants, we spend more time together than with our families if we get along well wonât that improve our work efficiency? Why are you blaming me?â
Marcus said âShes married. You can be nice to her but not too muchâ
Ben quickly responded. âBut you treat her much better than I do Sheâs married, and so are you if you can be nice to her why cant (?*
Marcus, âIf only natural that Iâm good to my wife
Ben, a bit dumbfounded, I didnât say you shouldnât be good to your wifeâ
Marbu âGet lost
Ben wat Speechless.
So he was kicked out, he might as well go it wasnât his first time being kicked out anyway
Meanwhile, when Comelia returned to her room, she didnât immediately pack her bags She texted Jeremy on hei phone, Jeremy did you arrange for Marcus to take me to his place?
Recently Comelia had been really busy, barely having enough time to rest, let alone test Jeremy Jeremy said he was also busy, and they hadnât chatted on WhatsApp for a while.
After sending the message, Comelia waited a bit before receiving a response from Jermy, âYes, I arranged for him to take you to his place. You can stay there without worry if you need anything, just let him knowâ
Upon receiving Jeremyâs affirmative response, Cornelia was fuming.
What an idiot
She angrily typed. âDo you know his wife isnt in Paris? Do you know if I go there, itâll just be him and me? Do you know what can happen if a man and a woman live together?*
Jeremy. âHeâs a trustworthy person. You can trust him.â
Comets, âDo you know what he did to me in Harbor City?â
Reading thit Marcus thought hard. They only stayed in Harbor City for a day, and he had been very restrained with his feelings for her. What could he ham done to make her so angry?.
Marcus couldnât figure it out, so he replied, âWhat did he do to you?â
Comelia didnât originally plan to tell him about that incident, but now she had to, âWhen we were in Harbor City, he got drunk and mistook me for his wife. He not only called me honey, but hugged me and even tried to kiss me if I hadnât dodged in time, i wouldâve been kissed by himâ
Jeremy, âHe hugged you? Called you honey?â
That night in Harbor City, Marcus did indeed drink a bit too much. He vaguely remembered Steven arranging for a driver to take them back to the hotel, and that he and Comelia went back to the room together, but he couldnât remember what happened after
He didnât realize his alcohol tolerance was so poor And he actually did what he had always wanted to do when sober but didnât dare to after getting drunk
Comelia said, âAm I supposed to falsely accuse himâ
Jeremy replied, âI didnât mean that if he offended you, I can apologize on his beha!!â
Comelia said, âI donât need your apology. I just want to ask you, do you think I can still trust him? Can I dare to move in with himâ
