Chapter 683

Marcus had no clue how the Padilla family had helped his grandpa out, and didn’t really dig into it. Still, he

remembered his granny’s words. If they ever needed a hand with something, as long as it wasn’t illegal, he would

do his best to help

“Take a seat, everyone Marcus sat and Cornelia handed him some documents, with important parts highlighted

Got to give it to her, Comelia was a top–notch assistant Ever since she started working with him, things felt much

easier. But he also realized, the easier his life got, the

harder hers became

Before the meeting officially started, Mr. Sharp from Moongazer Tech said, “It’s an honor for Moongazer Tech to

collaborate with President Hartley and the Hartley Group We hope for your guidance in the future”

Marcus didn’t say much and just kicked off the meeting

As usual, Comelia and Ben were on either side of Marcus, doing their respective jobs. One handed him documents,

the other took down important points from the meeting.

Comelia felt like someone was watching her while she was preparing documents for Marcus Looking up, she met

Roman’s gaze again.

He smiled at her, seemingly saying something without words,

Comelia didn’t bother guessing what he was trying to say She just glanced at him and then went back to her work.

Today was the first discussion about the collaboration on this project. Mr. Sharp was the first to speak. He

introduced the entire project plan, followed by Roman, the project lead

It was clear that Roman, being a core member of Moongazer Tech’s tech research team, was a big shot. He talked

non stop on the stage, with all the ladies in the audience hooked on his every word

But he didn’t pay much attention to other women. His gaze kept falling on Cornelia. During his half–hour speech, he

looked her way no less than 10 times.

Cornelia noticed, but she was busy taking notes and didn’t have time to deal with him.

Unexpectedly, while she was handing Marcus a document, he leaned over and whispered in her ear, “Do you know

that guy?”

Cornelia shook her head and handed him the documents, “We’re at work, and people are watching. You cant do

that.”

Her ears turned red when Marcus leaned in, fearing he would kiss her in front of everyone.

“Are you worried about that guy seeing, or everyone seeing?” He took the documents from her, his expression

instantly cold, looking at her like she was a stranger, as if the one whispering in her ear wasn’t him.

This was the kind of professional relationship Cornelia wanted, but why did she feel uncomfortable when he actually

treated her like a superior and subordinate?

However, Cornelia didn’t have time to overthink. Roman was still explaining some technical stuff on the stage, and

these were all new to her. She had to focus to understand the upcoming work and do better.

Two hours in the morning, three hours in the afternoon. A five–hour–long meeting. Everyone was exhausted when it

ended. People started to pack up and leave, and soon the meeting room was almost empty.

Cornelia packed up her documents and was ready to leave with Marcus when Roman suddenly called out,

“Cornelia!”

He didn’t refer to her as assistant, but called her by her name. That shout attracted the attention of everyone who

was still in the room. Especially Marcus, he paused for a moment, glanced at Cornelia from the corner of his eye,

and then casually walked out.

Cornelia stopped, turned around, looked at Roman with a smile, “What’s up?”

Her tone was polite and professional

The unfamiliar tone made Roman frown slightly. He walked towards Cornelia, “Do you have any plans after work? If

not, I’d like to invite you to dinner. Would you like to join me?”
