Chapter 526
Natalia clung onto Comelia’s hand, squeezing so hard it hurt. “Cornelia, is it because had a thing with
Marcus that you don’t want to be friends with me anymore?” Comelia looked at Natalia, who seemed
truly desperate to be her friend, but she couldn’t be friends with someone whose values were so
different from hers. “Natalia, we were never truly friends to begin with…”
“Natalia, from now on, I won’t rope you into chasing after Marcus, and I won’t mention him in front of
you. Can we still be friends?” Natalia’s voice was urgent, almost pleading.
Comelia was softening, unsure of how to respond when a gentle voice came from behind, “Natalia, who
are you chatting with?”
Natalia’s face changed, and she quickly moved towards the source of the voice. “Mon), why are you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthere?”
The person was none other than Natalia’s mother, Clair.
Comelia turned around to see a woman in her forties, dressed head to toe in designer labels.
Clair gave Comelia an arrogant glance before looking away, as if another look at Comelia would dirty
her eyes.
“Natalia, I’ve told you so many times, you’re a Reese, you shouldn’t make friends with just anyone.
Why can’t you listen?” She patted Natalia’s head in a seemingly gentle manner, but her tone left no
room for discussion.
“Mom, she’s not just anyone. She’s Marcus’s assistant. She’s with him every day and he values her a
lot,” Natalia defended.
Upon hearing that she was Marcus’s assistant, Clair’s attitude did a 180. “Then why didn’t you
introduce her to us earlier?”
‘Natalia, I’m gonna head out,” Cornelia said, turning to leave. She had no interest in arrogant people,
and had no desire to be involved with them.
From behind, Clair’s sharp voice rang out, “She’s Marcus’s assistant, but she’s nothing more than a
glorified errand girl, acting all high and mighty in front of me.”
Hearing the mocking voice, Cornelia whipped around, smiling at Clair, “For a woman of the Reese
family, and the lady of one of the top four families in Riverton, you sure don’t know the first thing about
manners. Just barking around like some stray dog. I wonder where you picked up such a lack of
decorum”
With that, Cornelia turned again, walking away with grace. She had to shop for clothes, cook dinner,
and wait for Zack and Abigail to come home.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn the Reese family, few dared to talk back to Clair. Clair was left fuming, unable to conjure up a retort,
and could only watch Cornelia leave.
“Cornelia…” Natalia wanted to chase after Cornelia, but Clair stopped her. “What did you call that
woman?”
“She’s Cornelia Is there a problem, mom?” Natalia asked.
“Where is she from?” Clair asked.
“I think she’s from Rosenberg,” Natalia answered.
Clair’s face went pale, her heart pounding. “You can’t have any more contact with he
“Why?” Natalia was confused.
“I just don’t want you to have any contact with her. You need to listen to me, and you don’t need to
know why” Clair stated.
“But I can only get close to Marc through her…” Natalia started.
“You’ll have to find another way. No matter how you get close to Marcus, you can’t have any contact
with her Clair instructed.
