Chapter 446
It was ten at night in Riverton, but it was still afternoon in Switzerland. Today the sun was shining, and
Courtney was chilling in her rocking chair, soaking up the spring
sunshine.
Billy rushed over, shoving a tablet into Courtney’s face, “Ma’am, look”
Courtney didn’t even open her eyes. “I got it.”
Billy hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Is Marcus planning to go public with his thing with Cornelia?”
Courtney snorted. “He knows how many eyes are on him, and he knows the dangers lurking around
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthim better than any of us. He won’t reveal that woman’s identity before he’s eliminated all threats,
unless he wants to put her in danger.”
Billy didn’t buy that Marcus would protect Comelia, “The guy’s ice–cold, how could he possibly care
about a woman he met on a blind date?”
Courtney countered, “You think he doesn’t care about her?”
Billy speculated, “I think he won’t let you touch her because she’s taken his wife’s place. You know, you
haven’t been able to touch anything of his for years”
Courtney was skeptical, “So he really doesn’t care about her? I beg to differ.”
Billy asked, “What did you find out when you went to Paris last time?”
Courtney admitted, “I went to Paris to see how much Marcus actually cares about her. The more he
does, the better for us. But I wasn’t there long enough to figure out his feelings for her.”
Billy queried. “So, you’re saying we can’t make a move yet?”
Courtney chuckled, “The Hartleys are a patient lot, I’m in no rush.”
Billy asserted, “I know what to do”
“Go ahead.” Courtney watched Billy take off, slowly opened her eyes, and gazed at the blue sky.
Pictures of the Hartley couple were circulating online and among those with hidden agendas. The
Hartley Group’s employees were just as curious.
The next day, Cornelia pulled herself together and arrived at the company early.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen she got there. The staff of the President’s Secretarial Office started trickling in, all discussing
President Hartley and his wife.
Seeing Cornelia in the break room, everyone wanted to pull her into the gossip.
Since Yolanda, one of the secretaries, was close to Cornelia. They nudged her to talk to Cornelia,
“Cornelia, last night President Hartley and his wife were spotted. Did you know?”
The reactions of her colleagues today made Cornelia realize her worries yesterday were unnecessary.
Marcus didn’t make her a target of public opinion.
She laughed it off, “How could I not know about something this big?”
Yolanda continued, “I think the president’s wife looks a lot like you from the back. If you didn’t always
wear your hair in a bun and I’ve never seen you let your hair down. Id really think the girl in the photo
was you”
Cornelia, feeling guilty, immediately looked around, “Only say this in front of me, never to others. If
President Hartley hears, it won’t be good for either of us.
