Chapter 418

Marcus knew exactly what Steven had been up to. “You don’t sound like I just woke you up.”

Steven retorted, “I’m not like you, too scared to admit you’re married. To you, a bed is just for sleeping. I, on the other hand, have my beautiful wife beside me. Why waste such a lovely night?”

Marcus said, “Well, you carry on, I’ll call back in a few minutes.”

Steven said, “A few minutes? Can’t you give a longer time frame? Don’t underestimate me.”

Marcus said, “So how long should I wait?”

Steven said. “Just spill it now.”

Marcus said, “I’m thinking about coming clean to Cornelia about my identity. But I’m worried she won’t accept that Jeremy and I are the same person. Can you give me some advice?”

Before Marcus could finish, Steven rudely interrupted him, “Marc, are you deluded about yourself?”

Marcus was confused, “Huh?”

Steven looked exasperated, “Do you know who you are? You’re Marcus, the man steering the Hartley Group, the world’s richest man. With your looks and your body, there are plenty of women who’d kill to marry you. Why would you worry about Cornelia not accepting you and Jeremy are the same person?”

Marcus said, “Cornelia is different from other women.”

Steven said, “I admit Cornelia is gorgeous, with a great figure, and lots of men like her. But she’s a woman just the same. What’s so different about her? I guarantee if Cornelia knew you were her husband, she’d be so excited she wouldn’t sleep for days.”

One line seemed to stick out to Marcus, “Are there a lot of men who like Cornelia?”

Steven said, “You’re with her every day, and you’re still asking me? Have you forgotten what happened at the Harbor City auction?”

Marcus said, “Cornelia isn’t interested in those kinds of guys. I’m asking you, how can I make Cornelia accept that I am Jeremy?”

Steven spoke with conviction, “Marc, trust me, no woman can resist money. If she can, you’re not giving her enough.”

Marcus was speechless.

Steven continued, “First, buy her a luxurious mansion. Then, some jewelry and handbags she might like. Give her an unlimited credit card to spend freely. If you’re still not confident, give her family money and properties. By that point, even if Cornelia doesn’t accept you, her family will persuade her to.”

Marcus didn’t mind spending money on Cornelia, but he had doubts about Steven’s method, “Did your wife marry you just for your money?”

Steven confidently replied, “Of course! I was attracted by her youth and beauty, and she was interested in my wealth. We both got what we wanted and quickly ended up together. This kind of marriage is pure and more lasting. I don’t worry about her betraying me because I’m her source of income. She doesn’t worry about me messing around because she only cares about my wealth.”

While saying this, Steven didn’t consider Hannah was right next to him. He also didn’t notice the weak Hannah, tucked under the covers, slightly trembling and biting her lip.

At this point, Marcus thought only a fool would ask for love advice from a reckless guy like Steven.
