Chapter 96
Dr. Dawson was taken aback, but then laughed even more happily. âWell, since youâre not pregnant, thatâs even better. You and Marc can have your own kids in the future. Youâre both so good looking your kids will definitely be super goodâlooking too.â
Although Marcus didnt mind raising someone elseâs child, after all, he was the helmsman of the Hartley Group, and his child would surely inherit the Hartley Group in the future
If his child wasnt of the Hartley familyâs blood, the company would inevitably fall into chaos again, which was something no one in the Hartley family wanted to see
âDr. Dawson, what do you mean by that?â Corneliaâs eyes turned red with anger. âWho do you think I am? Do you think anyone can just humiliate and trample on me?â
Dr. Dawson realized she had said something wrong and quickly apologized, âCornelia, Iâm sorry! I didnât mean to insult you. Iâm just happy for you
She had just found out that Cornelia was Marcusâs registered wife, and even though Marcus knew that Cornelia might be pregnant with someone elseâs child, he still didnât divorce her. He even said that as long as Cornelia insisted on giving birth, he would take care of her child.
This news surprised both her and Ayden, and they didnât dare to think too much about it.
So, when Dr. Dawson found out that Cornelia wasnât pregnant, she got so excited that she misspoke.
âHappy for me?â Cornelia looked coldly at Dr. Dawson. âWhy donât you tell me what youâre so happy about?â
Could it be that Cornelia didnât know she was Marcusâs wife?
As Marcus hadnât told Cornelia the truth, and he might have other plans. Dr. Dawson thought she couldnât let the cat out of the bag.
âDr. Dawson, Iâve always respected you. Please show me the same respect. With that, Cornelia picked up her bag and left.
Yes, she was Marcusâs assistant, just a small assistant.
Marcus could make her lose this job with just a word, but she wouldnât let him or his friends humiliate her like this.
The more Cornelia thought about it, the more angry she was, so she took out her work mobile phone to call Marcus, âPresident Hartley, I always think you are the best leader I have ever met, and I respect you from the bottom of my heart. If you donât like me, just fire me. Why humiliate me like this?â
After venting, she hung up without waiting for Marcusâs reply, the first time she had ever hung up on him.
She put away her phone and walked out quickly, but the villa area was so large that it would take at least an hour to walk out.
After walking for a while, she heard the roar of a car behind her. Cornelia quickly stepped aside, and the car moved closer to her again.
Immediately afterwards, Marcusâs deep, sexy voice came, âGet in, Iâll take you back.â
Cornelia was still angry and even thought about quitting her job, so she didnât speak kindly to him. âPresident Hartley, are you trying to slap me in the face and then give me a candy?â
Marcus got out of the car, walked up to her, and looked down at her. He had a lot to say to her, but in the end, all he could say was, âCornelia, Iâm sorry!â
He shouted her name loudly and apologized sincerely.
Because this apology was not only for todayâs offense, but also for not fulfilling his duties as a husband and for his misunderstanding of her cheating.
He had read through all the information Ayden brought, and every piece of information about her had deeply hurt his heart.
