Chapter 709
Granny Rebecca said, “You guys are already hitched, but haven’t had a wedding. It’s always been a bit of a bummer
to me. Today, I’m giving you these bracelets, hoping you’ll have a baby soon and love each other forever.”
Comelia took them with both hands, “Thanks, Granny! We wish you a long life and eternal youth.”
After the gift–giving was over, it was time to eal.
Before dinner, Cornelia made an excuse to go to the restroom. There, she texted Taylor sneakily, [“Taylor, I’ve got a
piece of news, can you publish it?“]
Taylor replied, [“Anything but news about President Hartley, I’d post. Send it over, let’s see.“]
Comelia replied, [‘It’s actually news about our very own President Hartley.“]
After a moment of silence, Taylor responded, l’Aren’t you afraid of kicking the bucket after making the big bucks?“]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtComelia replied, [“If we don’t publish it, someone else definitely will tomorrow. Do you dare?“]
When Marcus and Cornelia first entered the Hartley family’s house, the grand welcome ceremony arranged by the
old lady attracted many neighbors. Some were taking photos outside the gate. Though the yard was private and
the interior couldn’t be seen from outside, just a shot of Marcus bringing his wife home to the Hartley family would
be enough. This news could make a fortune once it
was out.
Comelia figured it was better to seize the opportunity herself.
Taylor understood that risk and reward go hand in hand. He paused for a moment, then replied, [“If you’re not
scared, then what am I worried about? Spill the beans, I’ll publish it right away. We’re gonna make a killing
tonight.”]
Cornelia replied, [“The President of the Hartley Group brought his wife back to the Hartley Mansion, lovey–dovey as
ever.“]
Taylor replied, [“You even got the headline ready, seems like you don’t need me.“]
Cornelia replied, [“You’re essential, you’re mega useful, so don’t play humble!“] Then, she sent a photo of Marcus‘
back and the festively decorated Hartley family home, [“How do these two photos look?“]
Taylor replied, [“President Hartley’s back looks great, tall and handsome. I’m just curious about his face. If his face
is as good as his back, he’d be a total hunk.“]
Cornelia replied, [“His face is really handsome.“]
Taylor replied, [“Now, I’m dying to meet him. Sometime, I’ll visit you and you can sneak me a peek.“]
Cornelia replied, [“No problem, but let’s focus on the photos for now.“]
Taylor said, [“Here’s the thing, there have already been back shots of them posted. Posting again might not grab
attention. If we want to profit, we need something fresh, like a photo of them holding hands or something…“]

Coming out of the restroom, she thought Marcus would’ve gone to the dining room with the others. But he was
waiting outside the restroom, looking like he was waiting for her.
Cornelia smiled at him, “President Hartley, may I borrow your hand?”
Marcus said, “Huh?”
Cornelia took his hand, interlocking their fingers tightly, and swiftly snapped a few photos with her other hand. She
then let go of his hand and turned to go back to the restroom.
But Marcus was quicker. He pulled her back, “What’s got you so busy in the restroom?”
Cornelia said, Just using the restroom.”
Marcus said, “Huh?”
Cornelia said, “Got a little something to handle, you go ahead to the dining room, I’ll be there in a jiffy.”
