Chapter 1168

Cornelia texted: [Get your stuff together when you talk to me. You feel distant, like you’re not chatting with your wife, but with just some run–of–the–mill friend.]

Seeing the message, Ben, who was impersonating Marcus, got so scared his hands started shaking. He almost dropped his phone. Frantically, he handed his phone to Dr. Lester, “I told you guys Cornelia is sharp. She easily spots things out of place. You didn’t believe me. What do I do now? How do I reply?”

Dr. Lester replied, “She didn’t straight up say you’re not Marcus. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Ben said, “Then you reply to her.”

Dr. Lester said, “Fine, I will.”

He quickly typed out a message on the phone.

[I don’t mean to ignore you, I’m just busy with something. You rest first. I’ll contact you when I’m done. Good night‘]

After sending the message, Dr. Lester tossed the phone, “Problem solved.”

Ben asked, “How exactly did you solve it?”

Dr. Lester replied, “Just wished her a good night!”

Ben was speechless.

Dr. Lester continued, “Marcus has been out cold for hours, we have no idea when he’ll wake up. If Cornelia decides to call next time, we might not be able to keep up the charade.”

Ben said, “Whatever will be, will be. Marcus will be fine.”

Dr. Lester didn’t say anything more. He knew that no matter what he said, Ben wouldn’t understand the severity of Marcus‘ condition.

Unable to sleep after the chat with Marcus, Cornelia texted Tahlia: [Tahlia, I’ve got something important to tell you.]

Tahlia quickly responded: [What is it?]

Cornelia said: [I found our grandfather.]

Tahlia replied: [But our grandfather has been dead for many years, hasn’t he?]

Cornelia knew Tahlia would have this question, so she directly called her, and explained the whole process of how she recognized Grandpa Augustine.

After listening, Tahlia was silent for a moment, “This seems a bit sketchy to me.”

Cornelia replied, “What’s happened to me is indeed pretty mind–blowing.”

First, someone impersonated her mother Clair, then she found her sister Tahlia, and now she was found Grandpa Augustine. Life really was stranger than.

fiction.

Tahlia said, “Nelly.”

Cornelia responded, “Yes?”

Tahlia asked, “When are you and Mr. Hartley going back to work?”

Cornelia replied, “Marc is in France, I’m going to stay in the Capital for a few more days to be with Grandpa Augustine. When Marc comes back, we’ll go to Riverton together.”

Tahlia said, “I hope you can come back soon.”

Cornelia gently asked, “What’s up? Having trouble at work?”

Tahlia replied, “Not exactly. I just feel like our department’s head, Yolanda, values me a lot. She’s taught me a lot about work.”

Cornelia said, “Yolanda is a great person. She never hesitates to share her experiences with newcomers. When I was transferred from the Hartley Group’s branch to the headquarters, she helped me too. We even competed for the position of the president’s assistant. She didn’t win, but she never complained. If she’s willing to guide you, you should learn as much as you can and improve yourself”

Tahlia said, “I know Yolanda is nice. She treats me exceptionally well, to the point where other colleagues are jealous.”

Cornelia replied, “Tahlia, the workplace is like a microcosm of society, you’ll meet all sorts of people. Just focus on doing your job well and treat others with sincerity.

Tahlia said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
