Chapter 1187

Patricia was eavesdropping on their conversation and jumped in to mediate when she heard this, “Marc, if you’re

worried that Nelly will get tired, just tell her straight up. Don’t beat around the bush, it’ll just confuse her.”

“Was I not clear enough?” Marcus asked.

Patricia was speechless.

“Patricia, I’m starving, let’s eat first.” Cornelia said.

Cornelia didn’t want to talk to Marcus when she was angry, afraid she’d lose control and start an argument.

“Alright.” Patricia immediately went into the kitchen to prepare. Soon, a few dishes were on the table, but only two

main courses were served. She intentionally didn’t prepare one for Marcus. It was Patricia’s passive-aggressive way

of expressing her dissatisfaction with Marcus.

Although Cornelia was angry, she felt bad when she saw Marcus without a main course. She pushed her plate

towards him, intending to get another one, but Marcus pushed it back, I’m not hungry.”

Having spent the whole afternoon on a drip, and sleeping heavily afterwards, Marcus had lost his appetite.

Cornelia gave him a look, “Are you saying you don’t need to eat? Don’t you get hungry if you don’t eat? Eat now,

you must.”

One moment she was angry, the next she was worrying about his meal. Cornelia had a real soft heart.

He chuckled, “Patricia, look who’s bullying me now?”

Patricia retorted, “You’re a grown man, and Nelly’s husband. What’s wrong with giving in to her a bit?”

Marcus nodded, “Yeah, you’re right. I should be more considerate.”

Cornelia returned with her plate and started to eat, not even bothering with the dishes.

When Marcus served her her favorite dish, a little annoyed, Cornelia said, “President Hartley, serving dishes to a

female employee, is that appropriate?”

“I’m your husband now, Jeremy” Marcus said.

Cornelia looked at him, “Humph, you’re not Jeremy. Jeremy would never make me angry.”

No matter who was right or wrong, Patricia always sided with Cornelia, “Exactly, how could Marc possibly bully Nelly

when he adores her so much?”

Frustrated, Marcus exclaimed, “Patricia!”

Patricia, backed by Granny Luisa, was not afraid of him, “Granny Luisa always tells me to take good care of Nelly. I

can’t let her be wronged in any way.”

“Did I wrong her?” Marcus asked.

Patricia thought for a moment, “It seems no.”

She turned to Cornelia, “Nelly is a hardworking girl. It must be hard for her to suddenly stop working. You should

give her more time to adjust.”

Cornelia was protective of her husband. She could criticize Marcus, but others couldn’t. “Patricia, enough. I have

plenty of other things to do even if I don’t go to work.”

Marcus didn’t say anything more, just looked at Cornelia with a smile in his eyes. He knew that every time he looked

at her, it would be one less time he could, so whenever he saw her, he couldn’t bear to look away.

After dinner, Cornelia wanted to take a walk in the garden. After all, she had slept all day and was now full and

energized. There was no way she could sleep.

I’m thinking about taking a walk in the garden. Do you want to join?” Cornelia said,

Marcus didn’t respond, but Patricia jumped in, “Marc will definitely go with you.”

Marcus stood up, took Cornelia by the hand and walked out, “Patricia, you talk too much”

Patricia immediately covered her mouth, as if she had indeed said too much. When Cornelia asked earlier, she

shouldn’t have answered for him. Even if she hadn’t jumped in, Marc would’ve definitely accompanied Nelly for a

walk.
