Chapter 1551
It was quite a while before Jeremy’s text message appeared on the screen again.
[My wife, Cornelia, is just too amazing. She’s not only beautiful but also a money-making machine. She’s been doing
incredibly well in her studio with films and animations lately, and she’s brought in a lot of money. I’ve been pretty
useless.]
Luca’s replied, [I can’t help but suspect you’re bragging about your wife.]
Zavier chimed in, [I wish I could chop someone!]
Steven added, [No, I can understand Marc’s mentality.]
Lucas, curious, asked, [Do tell.]
Steven continued, [When Marc and Cornelia first got married, Cornelia was just a newly graduated junior employee.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBack then, she was naive and didn’t have much, while Marc was in control of the globally renowned corporation,
The Hartley Group. There was a stark contrast between their statuses. Now, Marc still has The Artis Group, and is
still one of the wealthiest men in the world, but Cornelia is no longer the same person she was. She has worked
hard and steadily moved forward. She bought a house in Riverton, her work has expanded, and she’s been earning
more and more money on her own. Ever since being with Marc, Cornelia never stopped progressing. Her work has
been improving, she’s becoming more and more outstanding, and more and more people are noticing her. It can
be said that whether Marc is in her life or not, her quality of life wouldn’t be affected.Je2
Steven’s analysis hit Jeremy hard. As Cornelia kept improving, he felt both proud and worried. He was afraid that
she wouldn’t need him anymore, afraid that she might kick him to the curb at any moment.
Lucas didn’t think that was the case. [Marc, is that really how you feel?]
Jeremy didn’t answer. His silence was taken as confirmation by the others.
Zavier was especially pleased. [So, you have your insecurities, too? That’s great!]
Steven asked, [Marc, are you still there? Do you want to say something?]
Soon, Jeremy replied, not with a text, but with a voice message.
Steven immediately clicked it, not expecting to hear Cornelia’s voice. “Sorry, guys! My husband just went to wash
up, he’ll reply later.”
The three of them were silent.
Cornelia added, “I love him very much. Whether it was in the past, now, or in the future, he will always be an
indispensable part of my life.”
After that, there was no message from Jeremy’s end for a long time.
After a while, Steven commented, [It seems they’re intentionally showing off their perfect relationship early in the
morning.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLucas agreed, [Indeed.]
Zavier said, [You guys chat, I’m off to have a drink.]
Steven warned, [Don’t drink too much. You gotta take care of your body.]
Zavier replied, [My body? I’m no different than a walking corpse now. What’s the point of taking care of my health?]
Lucas consoled Zavier, [Zavier, don’t be too upset. Relationships are all about timing. If Skyler was still alive, I
believe you guys would meet again.]
Steven added, [Right.]
Zavier asked, [Do you guys believe that Skyler is still alive?]
Steven and Lucas fell silent, because, deep down, they didn’t believe that Skyler was still alive. They thought that
Zavier was just unwilling to accept the fact that Skyler had passed away.
The chat ended there, with no one saying anything else.
Meanwhile, Cornelia was also talking to Jeremy. Looking at Jeremy, Cornelia began, “Honey…..
