Chapter 1232
Zack pondered for a moment. She had lost her parents at a young age and was often referred to as an omen. She
might not have been able to survive if she hadn’t persevered.
“Why don’t you head home and get some rest,” Cornelia shooed him off.
Zack, concerned for Cornelia, didn’t want her to be alone Td like to stick around for a bit, if that’s okay with you.”
“Alright”
They both leaned back against the couch, half-reclined, staring up at the ceiling.
After a moment of silence, Zack started, “Cornelia…”
“Hmm?”

“Of course not,” Comelia replied
“Then why have we had to deal with so much crap? Abby got mixed up with a bad dude, you did too. And me, I’ve
been looking for a girlfriend but I’m still flying solo”
Cornelia chuckled, “Maybe we’re just magnets for shady characters.”
“And me? Am I single because there’s something wrong with me?” Zack joked, trying to lighten the mood.
Cornelia laughed. “There’s nothing wrong with you. Plenty of girls are into you, you just haven’t found the one
you’re into,
Zack said, “Because I’ve got you and Abby, I want every guy you come across to treat you well, so I should treat
every girl I meet well ”
Hearing this, Cornelia felt a warm fuzziness inside, “Zack, having you and Abby in my life is the best thing that’s
ever happened to
Zack said, “Me too…”
Cornelia draped her arm over Zack’s shoulder. “Thanks for sticking around, but I’m really okay. I’m tired, need to
hit the sack. You should too!
Zack glanced at the time, it was past 3 in the morning. “Alright, I’ll head off. Remember, I’m here if you need
anything.”
“I know,” Cornelia said with a smile. She always knew that no matter what, she still had them.
After Zack left, Cornelia went back to her room, crawled into bed, but sleep eluded her. Her mind was like a movie
projector, playing back all her memories with Marcus.

stand up for her. He taught her to say no to sexual
harassment.
Marcus gave her a strong sense of security. Maybe that was when he started to hold a special place in her heart.
Later, they went on a trip to the highlands for work, where she was injured trying to save him. Even though it left an
ugly scar on her arm, she had no regrets. Because she felt a boss as excellent as him was worth it..
Then, they went to France for work. When she was kidnapped by Zavier, Marcus showed up like a hero and rescued
her. At that time, she knew he was married, but she didn’t harbor any inappropriate feelings for him. She never had
any ulterior motives, but she certainly remembered his kindness.
Later, when she found out that he was her husband Jeremy, the one who disappeared right after they got married,
she struggled, but she quickly accepted the truth.
Cornelia had to admit, without her even realizing it, this man named Marcus had quietly stepped into her life..
