Chapter 451
Marcus couldn’t read Cornelia’s mind due to his position, so he texted her as Jeremy from his personal
phone:
[How’s work treating you today, Cornelia?]
After sending the message, he felt like he was throwing stones into the sea- no response. Marcus
waited for a while, but Cornelia didn’t reply. Comelia usually didn’t carry her personal phone during
work hours, so she had no idea she received a message from Jeremy
Robert needed to get to the airport asap. The signing couldn’t be delayed any longer
After hanging in his office for a while, Marcus didn’t come out. Cornelia had no choice but to knock on
his door again, “President Hartley, you…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore she could finish, Marcus was already walking towards her, “Let’s go.”
He walked out of the office, striding towards the elevator Cornelia followed closely, stepping into the
CEO’s private elevator with him.
Once the elevator door closed, Marcus said out of the blue, “Cornelia, do you know how exceptional
you are?”
Cornelia was taken aback, looking up at her boss. His deep and sexy voice echoed, “You’re the most
exceptional woman I’ve ever known”
She had worked by Marcus’s side for a year, and he never held back his compliments when she did a
good job. But this was the first time she heard such high praise from
him
He had met countless women, many of whom were undoubtedly stronger and more exceptional than
her.
She thought, maybe he wanted to encourage her, to work better without being affected by others. So,
she had to respond, “Thank you for your compliments, President Hartley! I’ll work even harder and treat
the Hartley Group as my home.”
“Less ass–kissing, more sincerity” Marcus couldn’t help but pinch Cornelia’s bun.
His move was too quick. By the time Cornelia noticed, he had already pulled his hand back. She
couldn’t really say anything
Marcus added, “In the future, just do whatever you want. Don’t care about what others think. The
Hartley Group and I are always there for you.”
“Thank you, President Hartley!” This time, he said the Hartley Group and he were always there for her,
not just when she worked at the Hartley Group
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia caught the difference between the two sentences, but she didn’t overthink it, nor dare to.
Signing was the final step before the collaboration. Even if both parties had agreed on everything, this
step couldn’t be taken lightly.
Before signing the contract, the legal teams of both sides would review the content again. They need to
ensure there were no loopholes, and then the heads of both parties would sign and seal it.
After signing the contract, Robert of Skyline Co. was thrilled, “President Hartley, thank you for your trust
in Skyline Co. and giving us a chance to collaborate.”
When choosing a partner, Marcus never let personal feelings get in the way. He valued competence
and integrity more. He said, “It’s not us giving you the chance, but your Company standing out among
many competitors.”
Although Marcus was opposed by many for choosing to work with Skyline Co. over other long–term
partners of the Hartley Group, he still insisted on collaborating with
them.
