Chapter 809
âWhat are you on about? The guy started to raise his voice, âI didnât make up that stuff about Cornelia and Marcus All the folks at the meeting today saw it with their own eyes. That video was quite a shocker Do you think it was photoshopped or something? A couple of days ago, there were pictures of Cornelia getting cozy with some old geezer floating around in the group chat, and now sheâs with Marcus I really canât figure it out, what does Marcus see in a flaky chick like her?
The word âflaky just happened to reach Marcus, who hadnât walked too far away, causing him to halt
He pushed open the door, staring icily at the guy who had been talking. What did you just say? Say it again!â
âPresident Hartley. The guy could mouth off to Ren, but he didnât dare to do the same to Marcus. He didnât expect Marcus to come back when he was shouting out loud
âCornelia is my woman, itâs none of your business to gossip about her behind her back. Whatâs more, the rumors that have been circulating are nothing like you imagined, Cornelia has been a victim from the start.â Marcus had never thought to explain his affairs to others, he was only doing so today because it involved Cornelia
He wouldnât allow anyone to defame Cornelia in front of him, âBen, inform HR to terminate this guyâs contract and never hire him againâ
Ben said, âSure.â
The guyâs face turned pale from fear.
âAnyone who dares to gossip about Cornelia behind her back will be fired on the spot and never hired againâ Marcusâ words were calm, but they carried an absolute deterrence No one dared to make a sound.
He left immediately after finishing
Ben caught up with Marcus, thought for a moment, and decided to ask, âMarcus, you and Cornelia are legally married, why are you hiding it? Like todayâs situation, if you donât disclose Corneliaâs identity people will definitely have prejudice against her, which will affect her future work.â
Marcus certainly understood Benâs concerns, âYou think I donât want to disclose her identity?â
Ben asked, âYou do? Then why donât you?â
Marcus gave Ben a cold glance, âWhat do you think?â
After being glared at by Marcus, Ben felt wronged, âIf I knew, would I need to ask you?â
Marcus didnât continue the topic, âI donât get along with that Wendy. You take over Corneliaâs work while she takes a few days off.â
Although this meant he had to do the work of two people alone, Ben still accepted, âAlright.â
Cornelia had no idea about the stir she had caused with her message.
After sending the message, she got dressed and went downstairs after washing up, Patricia was waiting at the bottom of the stairs on the first floor. When she saw Comelia coming down, she immediately went up to greet her. âNelly, youâre awake. Come and have breakfast
Patriciaâs face was all smiles, her gaze couldnât help but land on Corneliaâs belly
Cornelia felt a bit awkward under her gaze, âPatricia, is there something on me?â
Patricia replied, âNo, I was just thinking about what Marc said before he went to work, and Iâm very happy.â
Cornelia asked, âWhat did he say?â
Patricia replied, âHe said you might have been tired last night, so he turned off your alarm clock and told us not to disturb you, so that you can wake up naturallyâ
Cornelia was speechless
