Chapter 892
Comelia’s plan was certainly gutsy, hoping to speak up for girls who’d been through the same as her. But she knew
that taking such actions could stir up a hornet’s nest.
Marcus asked, “Cornelia, do you get what you’re signing up for?”
Comelia nodded. “I do. What I’m about to do means I’ll have to release a video of my painful past, to show the
world what I’ve been through A few years ago, I might not have had the nerve to release such a video, but now, I
ain’t scared of anything You once told me that the wrongdoers were to blame, not me, and I’m just standing up for

As Cornelia looked into Marcus’ eyes while speaking the determination and courage in her eyes showed Marcus her
resolve and strength. He granted her request, Alright. You take the video and handle this”
“Thank you!” Cornelia was grateful for his trust, for letting her handle things on her own rather than keeping her
under his protective wing. If he took care of everything for her, if he always protected her, she’d eventually be left
behind by society Cornelia didn’t want to be dependent on others for everything she did
Marcus praised her, “Cornelia you’re the bravest girl I’ve ever met!”
Cornelia smiled, “I was scared too I thought about running away, but my family and best friend stood by me Their
trust and support helped me through the hardest times. When the incident first happened, I was terrified, I couldn’t
sleep. Even when I did manage to sleep. I felt like someone was watching me. At that time, I even thought of ending
it all by committing suicide, thinking that if I died, I wouldn’t have to face everyone’s blame and questions But when
I realized that I was the victim, that I shouldn’t feel ashamed because of others mistakes, I was glad I didn’t commit
suicide. You only live once You never get to start over, we should cherish it and never sacrifice it because of others’
mistakes
Marcus simply held her close, not saying any comforting words, yet giving Cornelia endless strength. She looked up

Cornelia said, “There are still many girls like me, hurt but feeling ashamed and scared to speak up. I hope the
Hartley Group can set up a department to first help the company’s female employees, and if it goes well, we can
scale it to Riverton, even nationwide, what do you think?”
Marcus said, “Alright, you’re in charge of this project. You can also pick some colleagues you trust to join.”
Cornelia asked, “You’re just gonna agree like that? No conditions or anything?”
Marcus replied, “This is a good thing, of course, I’ll back you up all the way”
Cornelia was touched, “Thank you!”
Marcus’ reply was simple but powerful, I’m your husband!”
As her husband, his responsibility was not only to protect her but to support everything she wanted to do.
