Chapter 992
âThanks!â Cornella said
After the flight attendant left, Comelia casually popped open a bottle of mineral water, took a sip, then pulled out a magazine to read Suddenly, the sleeping woman removed the hat shadowing her face and looked at Cornelia âMrs. Hartley, what a coincidence! We meet againâ
Cornelia asked, âMs Sallie, youâre on this flight too?â
That was so freakinâ uncanny! Not only did they bump into each other at the airport, but they were also on the same fight to the same city!
Even their seats were together.
Sallie might have purposefully boarded the same flight, Cornelia couldnât help but think, maybe she wanted to say something to her
Comella was filled with doubts, while Sallie seemed quite chill, simply responding. âYepâ
Cornelia just acknowledged and didnât actively make conversation. If the other party approached her with a purpose, they would naturally speak to her again.
Sallie said. âCornelia, you seem to be a bit hostile towards me. Have I offended you in some way?â
Cornelia fell silent
Such directness was a bit hard to handle. But since the other party had spoken so frankly, Cornelia didnât need to hide her feelings anymore.
Sallie continued. âI admit I once had a crush on your husband, even dreamed of marrying him, but Iâm well aware he only sees me as a friend. He firmly rejected me long ago, and there was never any ambiguity between us. He didnât even give me a chance to fantasize. Heâs a good man, a man worth your love..
Cornelia knew this better than anyone. âI know what kind of man he is.â
Cornelia wasnât even sure why she had become so sensitive. She knew clearly what kind of person he was, but seeing other women approaching Marcus made her upset She even had the scary thought of hiding Marcus, not allowing anyone to approach him.
She didnât know how she had become so terrifying!
Sallie said, âHonestly, Iâm really envious of you I envy you for marrying him, getting his love⦠I once thought, if you werenât there, or if you disappeared from this world, whether I would have a chance
Cornelia fell silent.
Sallie continued, âWhen I met him, got to know him, became his friend, I didnât know where you were. He didnât have you by his side, and he didnât fall for me, so my hypothesis naturally doesnât standâ
Listening to Sallieâs words, Cornelia felt increasingly sure that Sallie was an honest girl, who would love generously when she loved someone, and would accept rejection without harboring resentment, âSurely somebody as good as you are going to meet somebody who likes you
Sallie said, âThere are actually a lot of men who like meâ
Cornelia chuckled, âI can tell.â
Sallie asked, âCan we exchange WhatsApp? Iâd like to be friends with you.â
Comelia replied, âWe can exchange after we get off the plane.â
Sallie said, âCorneliaâ¦â
Cornelia replied, âWhat?â
Sallie asked again, âHow much do you love Marcus?â
â1â Cornelia turned her head, looking out through the small window. Outside the plane was a vast sea of clouds, beautiful and majestic, but it couldnât capture her attention. In her eyes, there was only Marcusâ incredibly handsome face, âI donât know how much I love himâ¦â
Sallie, âYou donât know? How could you not know?â
Cornelia replied, âI donât know how much I love him. I just know I canât imagine what it would be like if I lost himâ¦â
