Chapter 275
Briana had been eyeing Cornelis âCornelia, do you eat spicy foodââ
Comelia chuckled softly âIm also from Rosenbergâ
Briana said. âHow coincidentall You not only share the same name as my sister in law but also come from the same city And now youâre working as my brotherâs assistant My family seems to have quite the fate with people of your surname)
Cornelia also found it rather amusing that she shared the same name with her bossâs wife
âCould you maybe pipe down a bit Marcus was womed that Buana might stir up suspicion in Cornelia. âHow many times have I told you not to talk while eating?â
Briana leaned towards Comelia, whispering âComelia, my brothers really annoying huh? i think only my sister in law can put up with him. With his temperament, no other woman would give him a second look
âYouâre wrong. Your brother is quite popular Comelia replied back in a low voice, smiling
She knew quite well about how popular Marcus was Wherever they went, there were always people trying to strike a conversation with him
Despite being married, there were still a lot of women throwing themselves at him.
âBriana said. âThose women are just after his looks and money if he werenât rich and handsome, itâd be a wonder if anyone could stand his personalityâ
Cornelia laughed. âBut he is rich and handsomeâ
Briana said âEnough about him. Comella, eat more if you like the dishesâ
Comelia asked, âDo you eat spicy food?â
Briana said, âDuring university. I would often dine out with my friends. We ate everything, and over time, I got used to all kinds of food. Iâm not picky anymore.â
Comella said, âThatâs good Only those who are not picky can enjoy all kinds of delicacies. Do you eat clantro?â
Briana nodded vigorously. âYes, I love it. But my brother doesnât, so we never have it at home I can only have it when I eat outâ
Comelia said, âPicky eaters are really missing out, theyâll never get to taste the deliciousness of cilantroâ
Marcus said, âCould you two talk any louder? Iâm afraid I might not hearâ
Oops, they got so caught up in their chat that they forgot about the pickiest eater right beside them
Briana said âWe werenât bad mouthing youâ
Marcus said, âIâm not deaf Eat your foodâ
Since the boss had spoken, Comelia had to comply and stop chitchatting
The dishes were all Comellaâs favorites, and the chefs culinary skills were excellent, so she couldnât stop eating.
Patricia prepared a bowl of soup for Comelia, âMs. Stewart I made this especially for youâ
Cornelia felt so full that she couldnât eat anymore. Patricia, could i pass?â
Patricia replied with a smile. âI just keep it warm for you. You can have it when youâre hungry later
âAlright, thank you Patriciaâ Everyone in the family was very nice to her. But she felt rather uncomfortable, as if she was replacing the lady of the house
Full stomachs called for a nap. Briana yawned. âCornelia, weâre stuffed. Letâs take a napâ
âAlright.â Comelia said to Marcus, âPresident Hartley, Im going to rest.â
Marcus nodded, not saying anything
As soon as Comelia got back to her room, her personal phone vibrated She immediately picked it up and saw a message from Jeremy He didnât let her down this time
First Line âCornelia, I shall be returning to Riverton tomorrow
