âHottie4meâ was the first to ask, âWhat did he say?â
âIce Coldâ answered, âHe apologized to me, said he had to have lunch with his wife. Thatâs how he let me know heâs hitched, and it made me drop the idea of going after him.â
Netizens chimed in, âAnd then what?â
*Ice Coldâ continued, âI wasnât ready to give up. So I had someone tail him to find out who his wife was. But he didnât meet any woman at lunch, except for his assistant. I thought he was just using marriage as an excuse to turn me down, so I asked his assistant. His assistant told me President Hartley is indeed married and he is totally smitten with his wife. Heâs rich, handsome, and loyal to his wife. I mean, arenât good men like him getting rarer?â
Everyone on the internet was green with envy.
âWhy do good things like this never happen to us?â
âI hope I can meet a man like that in my next life.â
âI wish I could be his assistant. Even if I canât have him, just seeing him every day would be enough.â
âIce Coldâ retorted, âYou think being his assistant is a walk in the park? There might be more people fighting for his assistantâs job than for his wifeâs spot.â
A netizen asked, âIs his assistant a looker?â
âIce Coldâ responded, âSheâs a total knockout! His assistant is a sweetâhearted girl with a dazzling smile that makes you feel comfortable.â
Another netizen asked. âIs there any chance President Hartley and his assistant have something going on?â
âIce Coldâ and âHottie4meâ almost simultaneously rebuffed, âAbsolutely not! They have a strictly professional relationship.â
A netizen then said, âWeâre all here admiring the love between the Hartleys, and youâre suggesting heâs messing around with his assistant. Are you trying to gross us out?â
Cornelia, Marcus, Leonardo, and Zack were all focused on eating, while Abigail was engrossed in her phone. She was âHottie4meâ.
She had been keeping tabs on Cornelia and Marcus for a long time, used to do it secretly, imagining their life.
Now she had a whole community of netizens accompanying her in this, analyzing their photos, spinning stories from any slight detail.
âHottie4meâ stated, âGuys, check out the angle of this photo. Maybe Iâm reading too much into it. But just from the silhouette, I can tell President Hartley is head over heels for his wife.â
