    Chapter 360


    Comelia understood her grandma’s feelings, but she didn’t want the mood to get too heavy “Gran I still


    want to chat with Granny Luisa for a bit”


    Granny Luisa, who was next to Granny Reba, came into frame as soon as she heard Cornelia call


    her name. She purposely put on a stern face. “Nelly, so you finally remembered met


    Cornelia responded sweetly, Gran, Ive always had you in my mind, I didnt just remember you”


    Granny Luisa replied. Tm just pulling your leg But seriously, both you and your sibling couldn’t spend


    Christmas with us because of work this year Next year, you guys better be here”


    Cornelia nodded earnestly. Yep, I make sure of it next year”


    Alter some more chitchat with both grandmas, she ended the video call.


    She still had to deal with some work stuff with Marcus today If things went smoothly, their work could


    beplete by the afternoon, and they could knock off early


    After packing her stuff and grabbing herptop bag, Cornelia headed downstairs. She was already up


    pretty early, but Marcus was up earlier. He was already in the living room, checking


    out the day’s news


    It wasn’t just today that Marcus was up earlier than her. Every single day, Marcus got up earlier. The


    only time she was up earlier than him was the day after he hurt his hand. That day, he gave her a sour


    face all day long


    Cornelia walked up to him, “Good morning. President Hartley!”


    Marcus nodded a bit, which was his way of responding


    These days, if it wasn’t about work, he wouldn’t say a word to her. She couldn’t me him. After all, he


    was her boss


    Marcus didn’t pay her any mind and walked towards the dining room


    Cornelia quickly followed him


    Breakfast was a feast. There were sandwiches, milk, and more. Cornelia was spoilt for choice and she


    always had a hearty breakfast


    These days, Briana was always out early and backte. Cornelia hadn’t seen her, so it was just Marcus


    and her for breakfast. At the table, they both just focused on eating, without acknowledging each other


    After breakfast they headed to thepany


    As Marcus’s assistant, having an international driving license was a basic requirement, so Cornelia was


    the one drivingtely.


    On the way, Marcus took a couple of phone calls and then buried his head in some documents.


    Cornelia nced at Marcus in the rear–view mirror and thought, mistakenly, that he was looking at her.


    When she looked up at him, he had already looked away


    Marcus being colder towards Cornelia actually made her work easier. She didn’t have to worry about


    his excessive concern, which could be quite bothersome


    After about half an hour drive, they reached thepany


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Cornelia parked the car and quickly got out She ran to the back seat on the right and opened the door


    for Marcus


    He stepped out, not even sparing her a nce.


    Ben was already at thepany’s entrance waiting. As soon as he saw Marcus, he walked up and


    started reporting on their work situation. Cornelia followed behind Marcus, taking


    meticulous notes


    Her note–taking and shorthand skills were phenomenal. If not, she wouldn’t have been able to handle


    such high–intensity work.
