Chapter 170
You two were already making out, do you need to talk about it? Am I seriously that dumb?
Cornelia thought to herself
Of course, she only dared to complain in her heart and didn’t confront them directly
Marcus said, “I’m asking you a question”
Cornelia replied, “No one told me. I just guessed”
Marcus said, “Don’t make wild guesses anymore, she’s not my wife”
If she’s not your wife, then why were you two… Cornelia realized she was asking too much and quickly
shut her mouth.
He didn’t want her to misunderstand him as an irresponsible man, so he patiently explained, “She
pursued me before, but I didn’t agree. She deliberately wanted to make you misunderstand, so she

she failed”
He was looking at her while speaking. She could see his sincere eyes, he definitely wasn’t lying.
But why was he explaining this to her in such detail? He should be explaining this to his wife.
He suddenly reached out and gently stroked her hair, saying, “I won’t cheat on you, you have to believe
me.”
Cornelia looked confused after hearing this.
The development of this situation seemed a bit weird and off.
He’s not her husband. They won’t be sleeping together at night, so what does it have to do with her if
he cheats outside?
Just as Cornelia’s thoughts were in disarray, Marcus leaned closer to her.
He’s not going to try and kiss her, is he?!
Cornelia got scared and pressed herself against the chair, not daring to move. However, he just helped
her buckle her seatbelt and didn’t do anything inappropriate
Cornelia thought, “Am I overthinking this? What am I even thinking about?”
“Sit tight, let’s go.” He seemed to be holding back a laugh, his voice almost bursting with laughter.
Marcus didn’t say where they were going, and Cornelia didn’t dare to ask. When they arrived at their
destination, she found out this was the dinner place she had booked for him and his
wife
“President Hartley, I hope you and your wife enjoy your dinner. I’ll be going home now.” After getting out
of the car, Cornelia wanted to leave. Her thoughts were all over the place now, and if she stayed with
him any longer, she would think even more
“Do you really want to leave me alone at a couples‘ restaurant?” Marcus looked at her and said, “My
wife still doesn’t want to forgive me. I have no one to eat with, why don’t you join me?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe knew it was a couples restaurant and still asked her to eat with him. Cornelia couldn’t help but
doubt his intentions, “President Hartley, can say no?”
Marcus wanted to say she couldn’t refuse, but he didn’t want to force her to do something she didn’t
want to do: “If you don’t feel like eating, forget it. Let’s just go home.”
President Hartley, you go ahead. I need to go to my house and get some clothes. After saying that,
Cornelia turned around and ran away, hailing a taxi to get home as quickly as possible When she got
home, it was just in time for dinner. Zack and Abigail were eating while watching a TV show.
Seeing her return, both of them were surprised, “Your stingy boss actually let you off this early today?”
Cornelia took off her coat and hung it on the rack, then squeezed in between them and sat down, “I
think the president is nuts”
Zack and Abigail asked in unison, “How so?”
Cornelia leaned on the table, mumbling. “I think he wants to pursue me!”
