Chapter 104
Cornelia didn’t want to answer, but Marcus could probably guess her thoughts and insisted on her
saying it out loud, Tm asking you now”
Zack didn’t like his girl being bullied by others, so he glanced at Marcus, President Hartley, whether
your wife will forgive you or not, you should ask her My Nelly’s words indeed don’t
count.”
Marcus eyes under the silver rimmed glasses were sharp and menacing. “Your Nelly?”
When did Cornela, his wife, become someone else’s?
Some hostility was only noticeable between men, and Zack saw Marcus as a dangerous guy. “Yeah,
my Nelly, we’ve known each other since we were kids”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbigail who was too distracted by Cornelia’s beauty, didn’t notice the tension between the two men and
continued, “President Hartley, do you want to know how Nelly got her nickname?” Cornelia was getting
a headache. Abby, President Hartley is so busy, so that he doesn’t have time for this.”
However, Marcus was very interested in everything about Cornelia, “Go on”
Abigail excitedly said, “When Nelly was about five or six years old, she was thirsty and accidentally
drank Granny Rebecca’s medicinal alcohol. She got drunk and crawled around the house like a
caterpillar That’s when we started calling her that ”
“Abby, if you don’t shut up, I’ll show you what’s what tonight,” Cornelia threatened. If Abby kept talking,
Marcus would know all her embarrassing childhood stories
Abigail leaned into Cornelia’s arms, “I wouldn’t mind, but aside from punching me a few times, what
else can you do?… But we can go out and have some fun together” Cornelia hurriedly covered her
mouth Abigail had never even had a boyfriend, but her mouth was fierce, and there was nothing she
wouldn’t say.
Usually, when the three of them were together, joking around was harmless, but now there was Marcus
Zack deliberately said, “I heard The Dive Bar has some new people. I’ll take you both there sometime.”
Were these two crazy today?
Cornelia quickly interrupted him, Zack, have you decided which BBQ place we’re going to? I need to
reserve a seat.”
“Just the one we always go to up ahead, we’ll be there in a minute.” Zack parked the car by the BBQ
place and let them get out first while he looked for a parking spot. Before even entering, they could
smell the strong aroma of grilled meat. Cornelia looked at Marcus, “President Hartley, are you really
able to eat this?”

Cornelia, *_*
The three of them entered the restaurant, they missed the peak dining hours and there were not many
diners in the restaurant now. Cornelia chose an eight-person table in the corner
She pulled out a bench and wiped it over and over with a paper towel, making sure it was clean before
saying, “President Hartley, please sit down.”
Marcus actually sat down, and Cornelia sat to his left, gesturing for him to use the hot towel brought by
the waiter first..
After wiping their hands, Cornelia began to order. She knew Marcus couldn’t eat greasy food, so she
planned to order some light dishes. Just as she was about to order, Zack came over “What’s the point
of eating BBQ if you’re going to order light dishes?”
Cornelia said, “Zack, President Hartley can’t eat greasy food. Let’s just order some light dishes.”
Zack looked at Marcus provocatively, “If President Hartley really can’t eat greasy food, then let’s order
some light dishes to go with the BBQ.”
Marcus said, “Whatever you guys eat, I’ll eat.”
