He Just got settled, and started chatting with Cornelia. Clearly, this girl was not his antidote, but rather
the poison that could take his life.
Just as Dr. Dawson was full of gripes, Marcus calmly asked, “You seem pretty upset with Cornelia?”
Dr. Dawson was taken aback. Was he a mind mader or something?
She awkwardly laughed. “Comelia is so nice, how could I be upset with her?”
Marcus was stanng at his phone, not looking at her. He asked softly. “Did she call me while I was out?”
Dr. Dawson knew she couldn’t hide it. She didn’t dare to either, “She called for ‘Marcus not ‘Jeremy‘ I
answered for you”
Marcus asked, “What did you tell her?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDr. Dawson said, “Just as you instructed, I didn’t dare to tell her about your condition just told her you
weren’t available.”
“Comelia is my wife!” After Marcus said that, he fell silent Dr. Dawson couldn’t figure him out and was
getting more anxious.
After a while, she cautiously asked, “Marc, if you have something to say, just spit it out. Don’t make me
guess.”
Marcus asked, “Wasn’t I clear enough?”
Dr. Dawson said. “Maybe I just didn’t get what you were trying to say.”
Marcus said, “Cornelia is my wife, the closest person to me by law. Not only does slje own half of my
wealth, half of my life is hers too. Even if one day I’m at death’s door, the only person who can sign off
on me giving up treatment is Cornelia
Dr. Dawson was shocked, “Marc, you were the one who asked me to keep your illness from Cornelia
before you passed out. I did as you instructed.”
Marcus said, “I asked you to keep my condition secret. Did I ask you to be cold with her? You are my
subordinates, but Cornelia is my wife.”
Dr. Dawson went pale and was speechless. She had always seen Marcus as her own son and thought
he saw her as a mother. Even with their professional relationship, he was always respectful. She never
thought he could say something se harsh
No, she had been around him for too long and had become arrogant. He was the one who put his own
father in jail, and kicked his own mother cut of the Hartley family.
He was cold–hearted. How could she ever expect him to treat her like a mother?
After a long while, Dr. Dawson finally composed and tried to defend herself, “Marc, was just worried

Marcus slowly looked up at Dr. Dawson.
His face was pale but his eyes were as sharp as ever, “Cornelia is my wife. If I’m not good to her, who
should I be good to?”
Dr. Dawson said, “That’s not what I meant.”
Marcus said, “Please leave.”
Dr. Dawson didn’t answer. She had been with Marcus for so many years, this was the first time he
dismissed her so coldly.
He never treated her like this before. Never.
All because of Cornelia
Jayden, standing outside the room, saw Dr. Dawson walking out of the room in a daze. He was very
worried and asked, “Mom, are there any new issues with President Hartley’s health?”
Dr. Dawson looked at him and said sadly, “Marc doesn’t see me as his mother.”
