Chapter 162
Marcus asked, “Is there anything you need help with?
Cornelia replied. Thanks for your concern, President Hartley, but it’s just some personal stuff”
The conversation between the two ended with this answer. Just then, the chef brought in breakfast
Marcus sat down first, and Corneha took a seat across from him.
The breakfast is very rich Marcus had specifically asked the chef to prepare it for her, but Cornelia
didn’t touch it, “Not to your liking?”
“I had a late dinner last night, and I’m not very hungry now My appetite isn’t great. I just want some
porridge “Cornelia scooped herself a bowl, and it tasted even better than she had imagined
Both dishes were from the same recipe, so Cornelia wondered how the chef’s version could be so
delicious.
Cornelia asked, President Hartley, could I learn how to make this from your chef?”

Finally, there was something that suited her taste, and Marcus abandoned the idea of changing chefs
Cornelia said, “Thank you, President Hartley!”
Hearing her cheerful tone, Marcus smiled and said nothing more.
The two ate quietly until Cornelia’s personal phone rang, breaking the silence
Cornelia thought it was Zack and Abigail coming to pick her up so she happily took out her phone. But
when she saw the caller ID as “Mr. Colwell,” her expression changed instantly. “Mr Colwell, what’s up?”
Ryan said, “Ms Stewart, your husband has picked out a house to give you Today, I’ll accompany you to
transfer the ownership.”
1 can buy my own house. Who cares about his gift, let him give it to someone else.” She had already
refused very directly last time, couldn’t these people understand human language?
Ryan said, “Do you have a problem with your brain? Your husband wants to give you a house, not
someone else. What reason do you have to refuse such a good thing?”
Cornelia replied. “The one with the problem is Jeremy, isn’t it?”
Ryan agreed with this point of view, 1 also think he has a problem”
“Then you should persuade him to seek treatment, instead of always trying to give me a house. I don’t
care for it.” After speaking, Cornelia hung up the phone directly.
Marcus thought to himself, all he wanted to do was give her a house, why was that considered a
problem?
Anyway, Marcus knew about her and her husband’s situation, and Cornelia didn’t feel embarrassed
after he heard it, “President Hartley, I’m done eating I take my leave first
Marcus asked, “Where are you going?” Fearing that she would dismiss him with the word ‘personal
again, Marcus added, “I happen to be going out too, I can give you a ride”
“No need to trouble yourself, President Hartley, my friends are coming to pick me up. Cornelia said and
prepared to leave.

Marcus said, “Tonight, I’m taking my wife to dinner. Please book a restaurant according to your
preference.”
Cornelia agreed, “Okay” Since Marcus had mentioned that his wife was also from Rosenberg, she
didn’t give it much more thought.
After getting into Zack’s car, Cornelia thought for a moment. There were many restaurant options in
Riverton, but the top two were Pinnacle Palate and Culinary Crest. Both had very high prices, perfect
for wealthy people like Marcus.
Cornelia had never been to either of these restaurants, so she didn’t know which one had better food.
So she asked, Zack, Abby, Pinnacle Palate or Culinary Crest, which one do you think is better?”
Abigail replied, “Rich lady, did your boss give you another bonus? Are you treating us to such an
expensive place?”
Cornelia rolled her eyes and said, “A meal there costs tens of thousands. I’m not an idiot. I don’t have
that much money to throw around anyway, so why would I go to such a place? I’m just helping my boss
and his wife book a restaurant.”
