Chapter 627
Leonardo, worried about Cornelia misunderstanding specifically explained to her, âCornelia, Iâm not looking down on you being an assistant, I just think Marcâs behavior is a bit off. He brought you to a private party. His wife doesnât mind, and she even lent you that expensive necklace. It kinda makes people overthinkâ
Cornella felt a bit awkward, coughing repeatedly, her face turning red.
Ryan said, âLeo, just eat your food and stop being nosyâ
Leonardo retorted, âHow am I being nosy? Marcâs behavior is indeed hard to understandâ
Marcus served Cornelia a meatball, then looked at Leonardo. âWho said my wife didnât come?â
Leonardo scanned the room. There wasnât any extra person, âWhereâs your wife then?â
Marcus answered. âRight in front of youâ
Comelia was stunned She desperately wished Marcus would shut up but didnât have the courage.
Leonardo said, âThe only woman in front of me is Cornelia. Donât scare meâ
Marcus averted his gaze and continued serving Cornelia.
Cornelia was eating quietly, not uttering a word at the table, and soon she was full, âMr. Wilson, Mr. Ryan, Iâm full, you guys enjoy your meal Itâs almost midnight now, I have to get up early for work tomorrow, so fill go firstâ
Ryan replied, âOkay Sweet dreamsâ
Marcus and Cornelia stood up together
Leonardo pulled Marcus. âMarc, you still havenât told me where your wife is?â
Marcus shook off his hand, led Cornelia and left first.
The ignored Leonardo found his food tasteless, âRyan, do you know where Marcâs wife is?â
Ryan answered, âYour logic is really hopelessâ
âDonât insult meâ Leonardo was halfway through when he thought of something, âRyan, do you think itâs possibleâ¦â
He got so excited he started stuttering. âIs it possible that Cornelia is Marcâs wife?â
Ryan said, âAre you still the Leo I know? The Leo I know isnât this stupid.â
Leonardo replied, âJust tell me, is it possible?â
Ryan replied, âYes!â
Leonardo excitedly clapped his hands, âRyan, Iâm smart, right? I figured out the key point that none of you thought of Tomorrow Iâm going to ask Marc, and confront him.â
Ryan looked at Leonardo with furrowed brows, not sure if he was genuinely stupid or just pretending to be
After a tenâminute drive, Marcus car arrived outside the community where Cornelia lived.
After the car stopped, Cornelia hastily got off, âPresident Hartley, see you tomorrow!â
Marcus got off the car too, âIâll pick you up tomorrow morningâ
Comelia said, âNo need, I can drive to the company myselfâ
If he picked her up, her true identity would easily be discovered
Even though he was rejected, Marcus stood still. He didnât leave, and Cornelia felt awkward, âPresident Hartley, is there anything else?â
Looking at her, Marcus solemnly said, âCornelia, whether as Jeremy or Marcus, my resolve to live a good life with you has never changedâ
Faced with such a declaration of love, Cornelia didnât know how to respond.
