Chapter 697

Looking back now, grandma’s attempt at faking an illness was so bad, and it was obvious. But at the time, he was

so concerned about his grandma that he didn’t notice and fell for her trick.

Later, he drove himself to the University of Riverton, parked under the plane tree at the north gate, and called the

girl to come and pick. up the stuff

She arrived quickly after the call. The light under the plane tree was dim, and he didn’t fully open his car window.

Between meeting and handing over the stuff, he didn’t get a good look at the girl’s face.

He probably wasn’t in the mood to notice the girl’s face, just wanted to complete the lask given by his grandma as

soon as possible and spend more time with her.

The inside of the car was even darker, and his window was only slightly open, so he guessed that the girl probably

didn’t get a good look at him either.

Years passed and he still remembered this because he thought the girl was incredibly rude. She took her stuff and

didn’t even say thank you, just turned and left.

That girl was likely Cornelia. So, his fate with Cornelia might have started years ago.

The time he met Cornelia could have been earlier than Roman had met her, meaning he wasn’t the latecomer.

This realization got Marcus pretty pumped!

Cornelia, unaware of Marcus‘ inner thoughts, continued talking about his grandma, “Your grandma even told me

that she was a big shot in Riverton, and if anyone dared to bully me, I should find her. She’d have my back.

“At that time, I had no idea about her status, I thought your grandma was just trying to comfort me because I was

afraid of being in a strange city.

“If I had known that your grandma was the boss of the Hartley Group, and knowing I had the Hartley Group backing

me up, I would’ve

been more confident.”

Marcus looked at her and suddenly asked, “What did grandma give you back then?”

Comelia said, “She gave a lot of stuff, food, daily necessities, clothes… I hardly bought anything during university, it

was all from her. She even wanted to give me money, but how could I accept her money?”

Marcus said, “Did grandma give you everything personally?”

Cornelia said, “Once, it wasn’t her. I remember that time very clearly.”

That time must’ve been him, did she remember him?

Marcus stopped in his tracks, looking at Cornelia, wanting to see what she remembered about him, “Oh? Tell me

more.”

Cornelia said, “One night at around 10, I had finished washing up and was about to go to bed. Suddenly, I got a call

from a strange number, saying Granny Luisa had something for me.

“I didn’t suspect anything and just put on a coat and went to the place. When I got there, I saw the person parked in

a dark spot. The car window wasn’t even fully open, and as soon as I got close to the car, I felt a chill down my

spine.

“I felt something was off then, and I wanted to leave right away, but then he handed something through the

window, so I took it and ran. I ran so fast I almost tripped

“Later, I thought I might’ve run into some bad guy, so I called your grandma to ask. She confirmed that she did

send someone to give me something, and I was relieved.”

Marcus was speechless

Comelia, “Does your grandma have any scary drivers or bodyguards?”

Did he look that scary? Did he scare her off without even seeing him?

Cornelia, “Viny aren’t you talking all of a sudden?”

Marcus, “The person who gave you the stuff, that was me!”

Cornelia seemed to have heard something unbelievable, her eyes widened as she looked at him, then she burst out

laughing. “So it was you. That’s a reasonable explanation. So it turns out, we didn’t meet for the first time on

registration day?”

She was still laughing!

Was it that funny?
