Chapter 437
Marcus was just her boss. Looking out for her wasn’t really his duties. Cornelia got that and quickly
adjusted her mindset, “Alright.”
Abigail, an internet junkie, had also seen the news. As soon as she got out of the car, she ran over to
Cornelia, “Cornelia, this is big news! Somebody snapped a pic of you with President Hartley and
mistook you for his wife.”
Comelia chuckled, “We already know.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAbigail continued, “The views on this news are skyrocketing. In no time, a ton of people will see it. If
this keeps up, a lot of people might think you’re really his wife. Isn’t your company’s PR department
going to do something about it?”
Leonardo chimed in from the side, “When have you ever seen any paparazzi shols of Marc? If he
doesn’t want people to snap his picture, no one can. Even if they do, it wouldn’t get published, let alone
cause such a stir online.”
Abigail looked confused, “What do you mean?”
Zack, being a guy, understood Leonardo’s point completely, “President Hartley, are you using Cornelia
as a smokescreen? We get that you love your wife and want to protect her from public exposure, but
why should Nelly bear the brunt of it all? We want to protect our Nelly too.”
Comelia quickly pulled Zack aside, “Zack, I’m President Hartley’s assistant, it’s part of my job. Plus, the
photo didn’t show my face, who would know it was me?”
“The internet might not know it’s you, but anyone who knows you could easily recognize you from the
back. Zack was getting really worked up, his care and concern for Cornelia made it hard for him to
accept how she was being treated.
Marcus was taken aback. He finally understood why Cornelia looked so troubled.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis aim was to publicly declare Cornelia’s identity as Mrs. Hartley, but he overlooked the fact that
Cornelia herself wasn’t aware of her status. In this case, Cornelia would definitely think he was taking
advantage of her, and she would surely be upset.
Marcus tried to stop Cornelia to explain, but she cut him off, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble
again. But don’t worry, I’ll make sure my friends keep their mouths shut.”
She didn’t even look at him. After saying her piece, she walked away with Zack to have a private chat.
Marcus couldn’t hear what they were saying, but he saw Zack’s mood lighten up after Cornelia’s talk
and the look he gave Marcus was somewhat triumphant.
Leonardo tried to lighten the tense atmosphere, “Man, my stomach is growling. Can we get something
to eat?”
Cornelia agreed, “I’m also starving.”
With that, they all headed off to grab some grub.
