Chapter 286
Abigail Young was hooked on this TV show watching it daily, and even Cornelia who caught a few snippets with her, found the male leads acting cringe-worthy, with his perpetually stiff expressions When Cornelia asked how Abigail could endure watching it, Abigail responded. âWho needs good acting in a love story? As long as the guy is hot, the girl is pretty, and the plot is dreamy enough, thatâs all that
mattersâ
Despite having finished the show Abigail continued to be infatuated with this male star, often engaging in activities such as analyzing his popularity and purchasing products he endorsed in her eyes, he was undeniably attractive and held a top te status
As the male star made his entrance bathed in the glow of stage lights and greeted by thunderous applause Comelia joined in the clapping However, due to her distant position, she couldnt get a clear view of his
face
Curiosity piqued, Comelia couldnât resist leaning forward, hoping to catch a glimpse of the rumored handsome actor Just as she did so, Marcussitated voice reached her ear, âWhat are you looking at?â
Cornelia answered honestly. âIâm trying to see if the guy on stage is as good looking as Abigail claimsâ
Marcus reminded her âYouâre married, amember?â
Cornelia thought Marcus was being overly intrusive Even Jeremy, who was known for being overprotective, never bothered her like this. âPresident Hartley, since when does being married mean I cant appreciate âother menâs look?â
Marcus remained sent, his expression inscrutable Unaware of his maction, Comelia took out her phone, zoomed in ten times using the camera, and finally managed to get a good look at the male actor Abigad deemed to be a top tier heartthrob
Comelia felt maybe she was too used to seeing Marcusâs face, and having hunks like Steven, Lucas and Zavier around, so she thought the actor looked quite average
She took a few pictures of him and sent them to Abigail Abby, here are some snaps of your crushâ
Abigail responded quickly. âHow long has it been since you last checked in on me? Iâve been over him for a while now you didnât know?â
Comelia was genuinely clueless, âWhen did you stop liking him?â
Abigail replied âAfter meeting your husband Marcus Since then, no other man mattersâ
Cornela responded, âSame hereâ
Abigail said âif you could sneak a pic of your husband for me, so I could see him every day, Id be your maid in my next lifeâ
The thought of secretly taking a picture of Marcus scared Cornelia, âif I sneak a picture of him and make it public, I might not just lose my job, I might be in dangerâ
At that moment, Cornelia stole a glance at Marcus, only to find him looking at her seriously
She was startled, he mustâve thought she was going to sneak a picture of him, he couldnât have seen her messages.
Comelia quickly turned off her phone pretending to be engrossed in the performance on stage.
Marcusâs deep voice filled her ear again, this time it wasnât sexy or gentle, it was almost like he was gritting his teeth. âIs that guy mally that attractive?â
