Chapter 836
Under everybodyâs watchful eyes, Marcus took Cornelia on his back and left the bar. The bar was on the 69th floor of a skyscraper, so they took the elevator down. The elevator stopped at some floor, more people got in, and all eyes were instinctively on them.
Comelia, under the influence of alcohol, had lost her usual composure When people stared at Marcus, she suddenly covered his eyes with her hands
âWhat are you looking at? Keep staring at him and Ill lose it. Heâs my husband, and weâre together, so no funny businessâ
To back up her words, she leaned in and planted several kisses on his face, âHaha, his face is all marked up from my kisses. Heâs my man, and nobody better get any ideasâ With his eyes covered, Marcus couldnât see anything, but he could feel her kissing him, and her body pressing against his His ears turned beet red.
But Comelia didnât realize how much she was affecting him, she just kept showing off âHeâs my man! Heâs my husband!
Like a child, she loudly announced to everyone they came across that he was her husband
Soon, the elevator reached the ground floor, and Marcus carried Cornelia out of the building and headed toward Blueshell Mansion. This place was the busiest part of Riverton Even though it was 11 at night, there were still many people around
Every time someone looked their way, Cornelia would loudly announce, âHeâs my husband!â
Although it made Marcus feel awkward, he didnât stop her.
In less than ten minutes, they arrived at Blueshell Mansion. He carried her onto the elevator again. On the elevator ride, Cornelia suddenly whispered. âYouâre my husband, why wonât people believe it?â
Marcus asked. âWho didnât believe you?â
Cornelia replied, âThat guy from the bar. I said youâre my husband, but he didnât believe me. He thought I was just a fan girlâ
Marcus asked, âWhat?â
Cornelia said, âHe thought I was just dreaming of being with you. I was really pissed off, do we really look that mismatched?â
Marcus replied. âIf you want, I can let the whole world know weâre together at any time.â
Cornelia shook her head, âI donât want thatâ
Marcus asked, âWhy not?â
Cornelia replied, âIâve told you, I donât want my colleagues to think I got the position as the CEOâs assistant because of you, I donât want people to think everything I have is because of youâ
Marcus said, âSometimes we can just not care about what others say, as long as weâre happy.â
Cornelia replied, âOnly those who are strong enough can afford to live as they please. Iâm not powerful enough yet, I still need to work at the company, so I canât just ignore other peopleâs opinions.â
