Chapter 970
Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out the door, a strong hand reached out and took the bag from her hand.
Cornelia looked up and seeing who it was, she gave a slight smile, “Didn’t I tell you to go upstairs first? What are
you doing here?”
Marcus replied, “I wanted to walk home with you.”
Unable to resist his direct confession, Cornelia took the bag from Tahlia’s hand and led her forward, “Let me
formally introduce you, Natalia has changed her name to Tahlia. From now on, she’s my little sister, and yours too.”
“Hello, Mr. Hartley! Tahlia greeted.
Thanks to her relationship with Cornelia, Marcus had grown fond of the little girl he previously disliked, “Hello. Make

“Okay. I’ll go find Zack.” After exchanging greetings. Tahlia quickly ran off, clearly avoiding Marcus. She didn’t want
to leave a bad impression on him and Cornelia
Marcus tried to take the bag from Cornelia again, but she quickly dodged him, saying, “The bag’s really light, I can
carry it. You should tone down your intimidating vibes in front of Tahlia. She shouldn’t be scared of you”
Marcus asked, “Am I really that scary?”
Cornelia couldn’t deny it. She had been scared of him when they first started working together, “You know you can
be pretty intimidating. I remember one time you threatened to throw me into the Riverton river to feed the fishes.
Marcus replied, “I didn’t know you were my wife then.”
Cornelia retorted, “So if I wasn’t your wife, you could just toss me into the Riverton river to feed the fishes?”
Marcus said, “I’m sorry.”
Hearing his apology, Cornelia’s heart softened again. She quickly linked her arm with his, “You don’t have to
apologize, I was just kidding.”
As they were talking, an old lady pushing a flower cart stopped them, “Young man, why don’t you buy a bouquet for
your girlfriend?”
Marcus immediately corrected her, “She’s my wife!”
Even to a stranger selling flowers, he was quick to clarify, afraid that others might not know Cornelia was his wife.
Cornelia felt happy inside.
The old lady said, “If she’s your wife, then you should definitely buy her flowers. Your girlfriend might not become
be your wife, but your wife is your lifelong companion. You should cherish her more. Just because she’s married to

you doesn’t mean you can stop treating her well”
Cornelia wasn’t a very romantic person; she thought buying fruits was more practical than buying flowers.
But seeing this old lady, who was about the same age as her grandma, still working hard. Cornelia decided to
support her, “How much for a bouquet?”
The old lady replied, “Twenty eight bucks.”
Cornelia said, “Alright, I’ll take one.” She then prepared to pay.
The old lady was quick to stop her, “How can you buy flowers for yourself? Even if you’re married, you still need
some romance in life. It should be your husband buying you flowers”
Cornelia replied, “It’s just a bouquet. It’s okay.”
The old lady continued, “What do you mean just a bouquet‘? Every bouquet, every sweet word is crucial in
marriage. Do you know why some couples divorce after a few years of marriage?”
Cornelia didn’t respond.
The old lady explained, “That’s because when two people are together for a long time, they feel the freshness has
gone from their life. But this freshness isn’t innate, it’s something you two need to create together.”
