Chapter 991
Marcus said, âThanksâ
Sallie asked, âDo you like her?
Marcus replied, âYep.â
Salle said, âMarcus, your blunt answer just shattered all my hopesâ
Before, she had asked Marcus the same question, and his response was, âSheâs my wifeâ
Just because she was his wife, even if he didnât like her, he had to take responsibility for this role But this time was different, Marcus answered without hesitation that he
liked her
And Sallie could tell, he was really sweet on Cornelia Whenever Cornelia was around, he only had eyes for her.
Sallie thought he had already spilled the sweetest words but then Marcusâ voice echoed in her ears again
His voice itself was charming, and when he spoke about Cornelia, it was even more heartwarming âI really like Cornelia, not just because sheâs my wife, but because she is my love! I canât live without her.â
If before this. Sallie still held a little fantasy about Marcus, his words now completely shattered it
Sallie chuckled. âShe likes you too.â
Upon hearing this, Marcusâ eyes lit up instantly. âWhy do you think so?â
Sallie replied, âCanât you tell?â
Marcus didnât say a word
Sallie continued, âDo you know why your wife just kissed you?â
Marcus said, âOf course I doâ
He knew it was a parting kiss. After all, she was going to be away for several days, and they wouldnât be able to see each other during that time. She just took the initiative
to do what he wanted to do.
Sallie said, âShe sees me as a rival, sheâs jealous. Her kissing you earlier was her way of marking her territoryâ
Marcus said, âI am hers.â
Sallie said, âYou know that, but others might not. She was making it clear to me and others, which proves she cares about you.â
Hearing this, Marcus was overjoyed. He wanted to buy a plane ticket right away and catch up with Cornelia to Rosenberg.
Sallie said, âI gotta go. When I come back, you two owe me a meal.â
Marcusâ mind had already left with Cornelia. He barely heard what Sallie was saying and just replied absentmindedly, âSure.â
Cornelia and Tahlia had purchased firstâclass tickets. Due to late purchase and late checkâin, the two of them didnât sit together, but were seated in different rows.
The seat next to Cornelia was empty, but she didnât care.
She hadnât slept well the night before, so as soon as she sat down, she leaned back in her seat, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep. She slept like a log When she woke up, the plane was already steadily flying in the air.
Cornelia stretched and a flight attendant came over and asked, âMaâam, would you like something to drink or eat? We have coffee, milk, and juice, as well as beef stew and
pastaâ
Cornelia had been sleeping when the meals were served, so the flight attendant didnât disturb her. As she had eaten before arriving at the airport, she didnât feel hungry now, just a bit thirsty, so she said, âIâll have a bottle of mineral water please.â
Perhaps due to spending so much time with Marcus, Cornelia had gradually picked up some of his habits. She no longer liked juices and drinks as much, and now usually only drank coffee and mineral water.
The flight attendant immediately handed her a bottle of mineral water, saying, âIf you need anything, please donât hesitate to call meâ
