Chapter 48
Marcus took a deep puff of his cigarette, Briana, get this person out of here right away, and donât get close to this kind of person in the futureâ
âNatalia, letâs get out of hereâMarcus seemed extra scary today. Briana pulled Natalia away from the villa as if they were fleeing
Once in the car.
Briana patted his chest nervously, âNatalia, I have told you this before, my brother values his personal space. I didnât tell him beforehand that I was bringing you over, so heâs not pleased
Natalia looked back. The car was speeding away, getting further and further away from the villa she had always dreamed of
She couldnât get the image of Marcus and Cornelia together out of her head.
She knew better than anyone how much Marcus disliked girls. She had tried countless ways to get close to him before, but he had always rejected her sternly.
Cornelia was the only young girl she had seen that could get so close to Marcus.
The more Natalia thought about it, the more annoyed she became. âIf he values his personal space so much, why can that woman come and go in his house as she pleases? And be so
close to him?â
Briana was stunned and asked, âWhich woman? My sister-in-law? Even though she cheated, theyâre still married, so isnât it normal for her to enter their house?â
If she didnât know Briana was such a fool, Natalia would have thought she was deliberately trying to annoy her, âBriana, are you trying to piss me off on purpose?â
Briana scratched her head. âNatalia, why are you suddenly so angry? How did I annoy you?â
Natalia glared at her, âIâm talking about Marcusâ assistant.â
Briana said, âHis assistant works with him, so itâs no big deal for her to enter his houseâ
Natalia was so angry that her chest hurt, and she spoke even more rudely, âHis previous assistant was a middle-aged woman named Helena, and now itâs a young and beautiful girl. Do you honestly believe she has no intentions toward your brother?â
Briana said, âBut Ms. Stewart hasnât done anything wrong, has she?â
Natalia said, âYouâre my friend, and if you wonât support me, why are you supporting someone else?â
âI support you, but we canât simply ignore what is right and wrong.â Briana and Natalia grew up together, went to school together, and had been friends since childhood. She cherished the friendship very much..
In the past, Natalia would tell her what to do, and she would do it, even the nasty words she had taught her before.
But the old Natalia wouldnât get angry with her and would listen to her opinions. She didnât know what was wrong with Natalia today.
âBriana, Iâm sorry. Itâs my fault.â Natalia hugged Briana and apologized in time. Before becoming the lady of the Hartley family, Briana was still important to her.
1 forgive you âBriana smiled, and the two went back to their old relationship.
Inside the villa,
Cornelia saw Marcusâ way of rejecting women again and couldnât help but secretly admire him.
Men could recognize hypocritical women; they just knowingly committed the wrong actions.
Marcus asked, âWhat are you laughing at?â
Cornelia quickly stopped smiling and replied, âWas I laughing?â
Marcus paused for a moment. Then he said, âI have nothing to do with that woman.â
