Chapter 94
âHeâs probably just being unreasonable âRyan looked at Marcus and deliberately said, âMs. Stewart, donât bother arguing with him Your marriage is in name only, so you can still date
other guys
Before he could finish his sentence, Marcus grabbed his phone and ended the call
Ryan said, âYou know she has a boyfriend too, why are you getting angry?â
Marcus suddenly remembered the conversation between Cornelia and Ben at noon, âWhat are the three greatest joys in modern society?â
Ryan replied. âFor men, itâs getting promoted, getting rich, and outliving their wives. For women, itâs getting a raise, climbing the career ladder, and outliving their husbandsâ
It dawned on Marcus that Corneliaâs earlier excitement was because she was planning to divorce him!
This made Marcusâs face even darker, âYou can shut up now.â
Ryan,â
Marcus got out of the car and sat in his own chauffeurâdriven car, âDrive, letâs pick up Cornelia and go back to Celestial Chateau.â
Cornelia walked to the side of the road angrily,, cursing under her breath. That man was crazyâhe wanted a divorce, but now he doesnât want one anymore
Is he just playing games?
Not paying attention, Cornelia almost collided with a car on the side of the road
âIf you canât drive, donât! What would you do if you hit someone?â After complaining, she finally saw the luxury car in front of her. There werenât many of these cars in the world,
Riverton, no one else would own one except Marcus.
Cornelia looked at the back seat and, as expected, met Marcusâs deep and complicated gaze.
He looked at her as if he was sizing up a strangerâ¦
Cornelia immediately squeezed out a perfect smile, âPresident Hartley, why are you here?â
âJust passing by Marcus got out of the car, seeing her being angry but still forcing a smile. âYouâre so happy at work, but why are you still angry during your break?â
It was her personal business, and Cornelia didnât want to talk to him about it. âPresident Hartley, If youâre okay, Iâll go first.â
Seeing her eagerly wanting to escape him, Marcus felt very unhappy. âWho said Iâm fine?â
Cornelia, âWhat do you want?â
âGet in the car.â Marcus opened the car door and gestured for her to get in first.
Cornelia took a step back and walked around him to the passenger cab, âPresident Hartley, Iâd take the front seat.â
Marcus didnât stop her.
After getting in the car, Cornelia tried to control her emotions. Her principle was to never bring her personal feelings into her work. âPresident Hartley, where are we going? Let me know sol can be prepared.â
Marcus didnât respond, his heart filled with various emotions.
Was she like him, not knowing they were husband and wife?
Or maybe she knows everything, but had another man in her heart and didnât want to acknowledge his identity?
This latter guess made him even more irritable, but he tried to control his emotions for fear of scaring her. âCorneliaâ¦
Hearing him call her name, Cornelia immediately turned around and met his deep gaze again
His voice was deep and pleasant, and the gentle way he looked at her made Corneliaâs ears turn red. âPresident Hartley, please just tell me what you need.â
âCornelia âHe didnât say anything, just called her name several times.
Cornelia said. âPresident Hartley, please donât do this. Just tell me what you want.â
Marcus suddenly smiled, âWhat ami to you?â
Cornelia didnât understand why he suddenly asked such a strange question but answered honestly. âPresident Hartley, you are my boss.â
