“Comelia. do… do you like me?” Marcus, who usually commanded the room in any important occasion,
was now stuttering like a lovestruck boy ‘Can can you repeat what you just said?”

He was her lawful husband
Thinking about this made Marcus even more upset, his hand hit the steering wheel hard, “Cornelia”
Startled by his sudden action, Cornelia asked. “President Hartley, what’s wrong?”
“Do you still think I’m a good guy? Seeing the frightened look on Cornelia’s face, any anger Marcus had
felt was instantly extinguished She was his wife and he couldn’t bear to be harsh with her
Comelia nodded. “Tve always thought you were a good person”
Marcus chuckled accelerating the car a bit more
Looking out the window Cornelia noticed flurries of snow beginning to fall, “It’s snowing! it came out of
nowhere! I heard Paris doesn’t get snow every year. Being here right when it’s snowing must be a sign
of good luck
Even though he had seen snowfall numerous times, he could see the excitement in Comelia’s eyes
every time it snowed Her happiness was contagious, “Why do you like snowfall so much?”
Comelis explained. “Where I come from, Rosenberg, it snows every year. I used to build snowmen with
my grandma and friends. And my grandma told me that making wishes during snowfall could make
them
come true

Comelia said, “I hope my grandma gets better, my job goes well, and that I have a peaceful and healthy
life”
Marcus “Don’t you have any materialistic wishes?”
Cornelia “Yes, I do”
Marcus, “What are they?”
Comelia ‘It’s a secret
Marcus said, “Just a moment ago you said you liked and trusted me as a boss, and now you’re keeping
secrets from me Don’t you think I feel hurt? So, you can tell me?
After hesitating for a while, Comelia said “President Hartley, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you. I just
feel like it might seem like I’m trying to hint something. fl work hard to achieve what I want I don’t want
to rely on anyone else because I don’t believe in miracles”
Marcus said, “Im sorry! I didn’t consider your feelings”
