Chapter 40
He’s just her boss and she got into a minor car accident with her husband by her side to take care of
her. What’s he doing coming to the hospital?
Then he called Leonardo, Wanna grab a drink?”
Leonardo said, “Sure thing”
Marcus was in a bad mood tonight!
Leonardo could tell right away when he saw him
After drinks, he said, “Marc, you and your wife have no connection. Let her cheat if she wants to. You
don’t need to feel bad for such a fickle woman”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMarcus laughedcoldly, “Does that woman even deserve my sadness?”
Leonardo asked, “So why are you in a bad mood?”
Marcus replied, “Am I in a bad mood?”
He’s upset but still pretending not to be.
It’s embarrassing for a man to get c****d, so Leonardo didn’t want to keep poking at his wounds
He changed the subject. “You’ve been in the West Region for over a month, and I haven’t seen your
assistant in ages. Wanna call her up to join us for a drink?”
Marcus’ voice suddenly became heavy. “She’s a married woman. Why can’t you let it go?”
“What’s wrong with being married?” Leonardo smirked confidently, “Her husband isn’t as handsome or
wealthy as me. If I wanted her, she wouldn’t be able to escape my grasp.
With a loud bang, Marcus slammed his glass on the table, “She’s mine! Don’t you dare lay a finger on
her!”
He’s so drunk, with his emotions showing. Leonardo teased, “Yours? What do you mean? She’s your
assistant, not your wife. If I pursue her and she’s willing, what business is it of yours?” Marcus knew
very well that Cornelia was just his assistant and not his wife, and her personal feelings were none of
his concern.
When she was injured trying to save him in the West Region, he had no right to be by her side. Now
with the car accident, it’s her husband by her side, not him.
Leonardo says again, “Marc, if you want her, just take her regardless of her marital status. I don’t
believe any woman can resist your charm.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThose words awakened the devil” buried deep within Marcus’ heart. For a moment, he thought it might
not be a bad idea.
But does he want her?
He doesn’t know!
He felt highly displeased when he saw her being intimate with her husband.
Maybe it’s because his marriage involved a cheating woman, and he envied her husband for having a
woman’s wholehearted devotion.
Leonardo took out his phone, snapped a photo of Marcus, and sent it to Cornelia. “Cornelia, your
President Hartley’s wife cheated on him, and he’s so upset he’s crying. Maybe you should
come and take him home.”
After sending the message, Leonardo quickly put his phone away and casually continued drinking.
He thought he’s so clever for calling the beauty over. Whether sparks would fly between them now
depended on Marcus’ performance.
