Chapter 121
Cornelia asked. President Hartley?
“Leave a contact for Ms Lacy”
President Hartley, I want your personal contact.”
Alvina Lacy thought to herself Who wants his work contact? What’s the point of getting in touch with his
assistant?
Mr Lacy politely said, President Hartley, my daughter admires you a lot Why don’t we have lunch
together and chat while we ea17
Marcus understood what the father and daughter meant. Mr Lacy, I’m sorry! I’m having lunch with my
wife
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr Lacy was surprised. President Hartley is married? Why haven’t I heard any news?”
Marcus laughed “We’ve been registered for marriage for almost two years, but we’ve been too busy
with work to have a wedding. When we do have our wedding, well definitely invite you
Mr Lacy felt it was a pity, but still had to keep a smile on his face, “Alright, then I wish you and your wife
a happy marriage!”
“Well be going then!”
Cornelia felt that Marcus’s way of refusal was direct and effective, not offending his business partners
and also cutting off other people’s thoughts about him.
She thought the matter was over, but in the afternoon after work, Alvina Lacy invited her to meet alone.
The meeting place was a western restaurant.
Alvina Lacy was as straightforward as her father, “Ms. Stewart, I invited you here for President Hartley.”
Cornelia liked dealing with direct people, not having to waste time guessing their thoughts 7 know, but I
don’t think I can help you with anything”
Alma Lacy smiled. Tm going after the man I like myself, I never thought of asking you for help.”
Cornelia was a bit confused. Then why did you need to talk to me?”
“President Hartley said he was having lunch with his wife, but he was actually having lunch with you,
and there was no other woman I just want to know if he’s really married?” Marcus’s stomach problems
hadn’t improved, and Cornelia was worried he might feel unwell, so she accompanied him at lunch.
“He didn’t lie to you guys, he’s really married, and he loves his wife very much.”
Alvina Lacy sighed. “So he really is married?”
Cornelia nodded, “He really is. Ms. Lacy, you are outstanding. I’m sure you’ll meet an even better man.
Alvina Lacy felt her Mr. Right hadn’t arrived yet, “I know I’m great, but good men arent that easy to

Cornelia sincerely praised. Ms. Lacy is truly wise.”
“What’s the point of being wise? If he wasn’t married, as long as I liked him, I wouldn’t let him go. But
I’m also a precious daughter to my parents, raised under their care. I wouldn’t stoop to being
someone’s mistress”
Alvina Lacy’s views were upright Pursuing someone bravely when you like them, and cutting your
losses when you know they’re married, no one gets hurt this way.
Cornelia really appreciated this kind of girl who could let go when necessary, and her fondness for
Alvinia Lacy rose quickly, toast to Ms. Lacy”
Alright, toast to you too “Alvina Lacy raised her glass and drank it all down in one gulp. This bold move
contrasted sharply with her delicate appearance, “But honestly, President Hartley is the best man I’ve
ever met, I’d give 9.9 out of 10.”
