Chapter 1224
Zack was pissed off after hearing all this
âWhat the hell? This is like conning someone into marriagel Trevor is such a jerk! Next time I see him, I swear I beat the crap out of him. Marcus seems to be the reliable one after allâ Zack said
Then something occurred to Zack, âWait a minute, wasnât Marcus always following Cornelia around like a puppy? Cornelia, youâve been busy at the studio recently, but I havenât seen him around. I havenât even heard you call him.â
Indeed. Cornelia hadnât been in touch with Marcus lately. It was as if they never existed in each otherâs worlds.
âHeâs been busy with workâ Cornelia replied.
âWasnât he always busy?â Zack questioned.
âLetâs not talk about me Letâs focus on Abby Cornelia didnât want to mention him.
âMy problem is solved I have nothing to do with Trevor anymore.â Abby asserted.
Zack nodded, âGood, thatâs the way. If you can pick it up, you should be able to put it down. Donât get all heartbroken over a guy.â
âCornelia, answer Zackâs question. Abby turned to her.
âWhat question?â Cornelia played it cool.
âWhy hasnât Marcus come to pick you up?â Abigail asked.
âI told you, heâs busyâ Cornelia said emotionlessly
âBeing busy is not an excuse. Iâm a man, I understand men better. When a man tells you heâs too busy to even call. Chances are, heâs lost interest in you. If someone truly cares about you, they can always find the time to call, no matter how busy Zack grumbled.
Cornelia knew this all along She just didnât want to talk about Marcus. Smiling. Cornelia said, âAlright, Iâll keep an eye on him. If heâs got someone else on his mind, Iâll follow Abbyâs example and cut him off.â
âI didnât mean that either. Just donât let your guard down with President Hartley. No matter how good a guy is, youâve got to keep an eye on him.â Zack advised, âAfter all, there are so many temptations out there for him. He could easily get seduced by someone else. So, you need to pay more attention to him.â
Cornelia nodded. âOkayâ
âDonât just brush it off. Think about what Iâve said.â Zack pleaded
âIâve considered your words, and Iâll act on them. Now, Iâm going to accompany Abby home to rest.â Cornelia responded.
âOkay, Cornelia, come with me.â Abby sensed something was off
On the way home, Abby asked Cornelia, âDid you have a fight with President Hartley?â
Cornelia shook her head, âNo.â
There was no fight, she wasnât lying. He just chose to ignore her. Before Abby could say something. Cornelia beat her to it, âAbby, youâve just had a miscarriage, you need to rest Stay home for a few days, Iâll take care of you.â
âIâm not that delicateâ Abby insisted.
Looking at her, Cornelia said, âOn this matter, you should take my advice. Granny Rebecca once told me that recovering from a miscarriage is just as important as childbirth. If neglected, it might lead to complications.â
âOkay, Iâll take your advice.â Abby replied.
