Chapter 587
Marcus hadnât made his position clear yet. On the other side of the video call, Granny Luisa waved her hand anxiously. âNo need, the main reason I video called was to see you. Not too interested in strangersâ
This was clearly her grandson, not a stranger
Comelia was amused by Granny Luisa. She played dumb and asked. âGranny, my boss is the current CEO of the Hartley Group, Marcus. He and Jeremy are good fnends You should know him, right?â
âUh, ha ha!â Granny Luisa laughed awkwardly. âOf course, the CEO of the Hartley Group. How could I not know him.â
Marcus said softly âGranny, itâs me, Marcusâ
Comelia turned the camera to Marcus.
Granny Luisa pretended to take a careful look at the man in the camera, âSo itâs Marcus, what have you been up to lately? You never visit your grannyâ
Marcus remained calm, âNext time Cornelia visits you, can I go with her?â
Hearing this proposition, Granny Luisa nodded her head enthusiastically, âSure, you guys can come together to Southern Peak whenever youâre free. Me and Nellyâs granny are looking forward to your visitâ
Cornelia didnât say anything They were plotting against her.
Granny Luisa then said to Comelia, âNelly, Marcus is a boy Iâve watched grow up. His appearance, character, work ability, and the way he conducts himself are all excellent Heâs perfect to be a husbandâ
Cornelia said, âGranny, I still think Jeremy is the best.â
Granny Luisa was taken aback, and nodded awkwardly, âYes, of course Jeremy is the best. Even if Marcus is good, heâs someone elseâs husband. Nelly wouldrit care
Marcus was speechless. His granny was so unreliable
After ending the video call with Granny Luisa, Cornelia sneakily glanced at Marcus.
Seeing his gloomy face, she felt a bit bad for him, âPresident Hartley, in your wifeâs heart, youâre definitely the best choice.â
Marcus said somberly, âAm I worthless in your eyes?â
Cornelia asked, âDoes my opinion of you matter?â
Marcus answered bluntly. âIt matters a lot.â
Cornelia knew what he wanted to hear, but her current status didnât allow her to give him the answer he wanted. She said softly. âIn my heart, youâre a good person.â
He was suddenly called a good person
Marcus didnât want to deal with her and walked away
Cornelia was stunned. When did he start ignoring people?
This habit needed to change. Otherwise, living together without speaking and only guessing at each otherâs thoughts, would eventually cause problems.
Cornelia caught up to him quickly. âIf you have any complaints about me, you can tell me directly. Donât always ignore me.â
Marcus continued to ignore her
