Chapter 120
Cornelia didn’t think too much and blurted out, “You might not, but what about your wife? Have you
ever considered the pressure she has to bear to be with you? Your brothers used to talk about her
cheating on you right in front of me. Do you know what that means for a woman if such rumors spread?
It would stain her reputation for life and people would never stop attacking her with it”
“I’m sorry” Faced with Cornelia’s angry questioning. Marcus couldnt defend himself and was filled with
quilt
But he still wanted her to know. “Cornelia, first of all, you’re not an outsider to me Secondly, don’t worry,
I’ll handle these matters, and no one will dare to gossip about this in the future He had said she was his
assistant, knowing many things about him that others didn’t, so she was indeed not an outsider
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut why did he want her to feel at ease?
What’s the point of her feeling at ease?
Shouldnt he be reassuring his wife?
Shouldn’t he be apologizing to his wife?
Having calmed down, Cornelia realized that her emotions had been a bit excessive, President Hartley,
I’m sorry! It’s none of my business.”
Marcus loved his wife so much, so there was no need for her to worry
You’re not meddling, and feel free to tell me anything you think in the future “Marcus not only had never

At this moment, he realized how much his unintentional mistake had hurt her.

Cornelia wanted to brush it off casually, but under his gaze, her mouth didn’t cooperate with her brain,
and she spoke her mind, “When you were speaking on stage just now, those women were looking at
you like hungry wolves, as if they wanted to gobble you up. I don’t know why, but I just felt worried for
your wife
Especially that young woman sitting to Marcus’s right, who was still staring at him
The woman was beautiful and dressed in high–end clothes. She didn’t seem to be a staff member but
probably a rich girl who came to find her ideal man.
Cornelia felt that if Marcus got any closer to that woman, she would pounce on him and devour him.
That was what she was worried about!

wife.”
Cornelia,
See? She told herself she was worrying too much.
As Cornelia had expected, after the opening ceremony, as their group was about to leave, Mr. Lacy
from DigitalX Technologies approached them with that woman, “President Hartley. hello!”
Marcus politely said, “Mr. Lacy, what can I do for you?”
Mr Lacy smiled and led the woman next to him to Marcus, “This is my daughter Alvina Lacy.”
“President Hartley, it’s a pleasure to meet you” Alvina Lacy said without hesitation, “May I have your
contact information?”
Marcus turned to Cornelia, “Cornelia”
