Chapter 281
Cornelia Stewart murmured, “Tve noted all your advice I know I have the Hartley Group backing me up,
but how can I trouble you with such trivial stuff like people lutting on me?”
He was her boss, not her husband What if she asked for his help when someone hit on her and he
said. “That’s not my business“? What would she do then?
Hearing her grumble Marcus Hartley’s face softened his voice turned gentle. “Comelia, whether it’s at
work or in life, you can always come to me for help anytime you face any problem.” Even though
Marcus made this promise Cornelia didn’t dare to take it seriously
Ther relationship was strictly that of boss and subordinate. She couldn’t just expect his kindness
because she shared the same name with his wife
She quickly dismissed “President Hartley, there’s a ton of trivial stuff in life. Ive been able to handle
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthem all by myself before I met you and I should still be able to do so now
Marcus was a bit annoyed now “If you don’t come to me for help, you could always turn to Jeremy
Artis, right?”
As long as she didn’t know he was her husband, she wouldn’t tell him about the small troubles in her
life, and she wouldn’t seek his help first
Cornelia asked “President Hartley, are you and Jeremy close”
Marcus replied “Why do you ask?”
Cornelia said. “Your special attention towards me is partly because I share the same name with your
wife, and partly due to Jemmy’s request. If you value Jeremy’s request so much, I think you must have
a pretty good relationship with him”
Marcus said, “We’ve grown up together since we were kids”
He and Jeremy are the same person, didn’t they grow up together?
“Did Jeremy also grow up with you?” Comelia knew Marcus’s friends were Leonardo Wilson and
Cameron Reese. She didn’t expect Jeremy to have grown up with him too. It made her understand why
Marcus would value Jeremy’s request so much
Marcus said. “We not only grew up together, we are as close as one person. So, you can tell me
whatever you need help with”
Cornelia awkwardly chuckled and didn’t say anything
This whole thing was about Jeremy being too loosey–goosey entrusting his wife to a male friend who is
both rich and handsome. Wasn’t he worried that she might fall for his friend?
She wasn’t sure whether Jeremy was too confident in himself or too trusting of his friend.
Marcus asked, “Why are you silent?
Cornelia said, “Dont tell Jeremy about today”
Marcus laughed, “What, starting to worry about him knowing?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia said, “I just don’t want him to worry”
Marcus said, “He probably already knows”
Comelia didn’t say anything
He’s the president of the Hartley Group, can’t he keep a secret?
He told others about what just happened to her
Who said men don’t like gossiping don’t like spreading news?
However, Cornelia quickly realized Marcus fooled her There was no internet on the plane, so Marcus
couldn’t send a message to Jeremy
She secretly glared at him
Marcus noticed her little action, “if you don’t want me to spill the beans, don’t do such things in the
future.”
Cornelia could only reply. “Okay”
After a two–hour flight, the plane landed safely at Harbor City’s international airport
