    Parrish couldn’t help but grit his teeth in pain. “Marcus, don’t push your luck man Otherwise, no one’s


    gonna end up happy”


    You think you’re a match for me?” Marcus red at Parrish and walked away with disdain.


    Parrish clenched his fists in anger, “We’ll see!”


    Once Marcus returned to the meeting room, Cornelia sneaked a few nces at him, unable to read his


    emotions, “President Hartley, you must have heard our conversation earlier. I wasn’t persuaded by him


    “


    Marcus looked at her. Is it because youte afraid of me?”


    Cornelia shook her head. “No, it’s because I respect you. And I would never do anything to hurt your


    wife. No one can ruin the rtionship between you two”


    As they were talking, Marcus suddenly asked, “Which house in Riverton do you like?”


    Cornelia liked both houses that Parrish had mentioned, but whether she could afford them was the


    most important question.


    She smiled and didnt answer. “President Hartley, the meeting is starting”


    Not getting an answer from Cornelia, Marcus sent a message to Ryan Colwell, ‘At 6:30 tonight, ask


    Cornelia which house in Riverton she likes. I’ll buy it for her.”


    Ryan quickly replied, “Mare, are you out of your mind?*


    What are you trying to say?”


    “First, you wanted a divorce, then changed your mind on the day of the divorce, and now you want to


    buy her a house. You either have too much money or too much time on your hands”


    “She’s my wife, and we’re legally married. What’s wrong with buying a house for her?”


    “Alright, no problem. As long as you’re happy”


    6.30”


    “You know what’s most important for uswyers? Time! Time! If you say 6:30, I cant make it 8:00, can


    17”


    Marcus didn’t reply and continued with the meeting.


    At 6:30 in the evening, as the meeting ended and Cornelia was packing up the materials, her personal


    phone vibrated twice


    Seeing it was a call from Ryan, Cornelia was excited, “Mr. Colwell, has Jeremy agreed to the divorce?”


    Upon hearing this, Marcus’s face darkened. How could he change her impression of Jeremy?


    Ryan cleared his throat, “Ms. Stewart, Mr. Artis doesn’t n on getting a divorce. He asked me to find


    out which house in Riverton you like, so he can buy one for you.”

    “Are you sure he wants to buy a house for me?” This was the third person today asking her about the


    houses Cornelia suddenly had a bad feeling.


    Could it be that Jeremy was bought by TechNova Industries‘ Parrish and wanted to use her to gain


    favor with Marcus, so he decided not to divorce her?


    But that was just spection Cornelia didn’t want to use someone without evidence, “Mr. Colwell,


    why does he suddenly want to give me a house? What does he do for a living?”


    Ryan ryed Marcus’s words to her, “You two are legally married. He made money in business, so


    whats wrong with giving you a house?”


    Cornelia had never thought of relying on a man, especially one she was about to divorce, “I can earn


    money and buy a house myself. I don’t need his help”


    “Refusing a free house is a waste. Think it over and let me know your answer tomorrow.”


    Tve made up my mind. I don’t need anything from him.”


    “Alright, I’ll let him know”


    After her call with Ryan, Cornelia was still worried, so she sent Jeremy a message: “Jeremy, Mr.


    Colwell just told me you want to give me a house. I don’t know what you’re thinking, but i want to tell


    you I don’t need you to give me anything. Anyway, let’s set up a time to meet and talk.”
