    Chapter 453


    Before eating, he would first disinfect his utensils, then wash them several times. His clothes were


    always immacte, and if there was even a hint of a wrinkle, he’d toss


    them


    Just the thought of living with such a man gave Cornelia the heebie–jeebies.


    Marcus asked, “Really you think so?”


    Cornelia gave him a pleasing and sincere smile, nodding vigorously, “Absolutely!”


    Marcusughed mockingly. “You little fibber!”


    Cornelia was taken aback. Had she lied to him? She just wanted to please him, to make her job a bit


    easier.


    A while ago, she worked non–stop for two weeks. Today, she was nning to take a few days off with


    Ben to go home after signing a contract with Skyline Co


    However, after Cornelia and Ben reported their work, Marcus asked Cornelia to stay, “Cornelia, are you


    free this afternoon? I’d like to invite you for lunch.


    Just as Cornelia was at a loss on how to turn him down, Briana burst in, “Marc, can I borrow Cornelia


    for the afternoon?”


    Cornelia was silently cheering This was her get out of jail–free card


    Marcus was interrupted, his eyes darkened slightly behind his silver sses. “This is working hours,


    who allowed you to barge into my office?”


    “Sorry!” Briana hid behind Cornelia, peeking out from behind her to gauge Marcus‘ expression.


    Corneliaughed at her cute little antics, ‘Bri, your brother won’t bite. What are you up to?”


    Briana smirked, “His look just now was scarier than a man–eater. He has one look when he needs me


    and another when he doesn’t. Cornelia, let me tell you, men are very fickle. Don’t be fooled by their


    fa?ade.”


    Seeing Cornelia’s genuine smile, Marcus‘ annoyance at Briana for interrupting his conversation with


    Cornelia faded, “What do you need Cornelia for?”


    Briana clung to Cornelia, “I haven’t seen Cornelia in a long time, I want to invite her for lunch”


    What was with these siblings today? Both wanting to invite her for lunch at the same time.


    If she couldn’t go home to rest, Cornelia figured having lunch with Briana would definitely be more


    comfortable than with Marcus, “Bri, I’m free this afternoon”


    Cornelia’s intention was clear. Her off work hours were her personal time, and she chose to have lunch


    with Briana.


    Though he couldn’t have lunch with her alone, having lunch together was good enough. Marcus


    reluctantly conceded, “I’m hungry too. Let’s all have lunch together”


    Briana looked troubled, “But I just want to have lunch with Cornelia”

    Marcus stared at her, his eyes behind the silver sses clearly issued a warning. “You dare topete


    with me!”


    Briana pretended not to see, linking arms with Cornelia all cutely. “Cornelia, who would you choose, my


    brother or me?”
