Chapter 506


    Chapter 506


    After trudging through a winding path, Cornelia finally spotted the building Right ahead was what


    seemed like a recreational area, pretty spacious There were a few vis scattered around. The so


    called clubhouse was probably Zavier’s private estate in Riverton. He never entertained quests there.


    A suited man escorted Cornelia to her destination, then vanished like a ghost


    Cornelia nced around. Not a soul in sight. The lighting was dim, making the ce feel rather


    unsettling “Mr. Rivera, I’m here Where’s Marcus?”


    No one responded, but one of the vis had a faint light on Cornelia guessed that Marcus and Zavier


    were probably there.


    As she headed towards the vi, a gloomy voice echoed, “Ms Stewart, you finally made it. You sure


    kept me waiting”


    Following the source of the voice, Cornelia found no one. After her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she


    spotted Zavier in ck leaning against a tree with a nearly finished cigarette in his hands


    Cornelia noticed that Zavier had been smoking every time she saw him recently. Perhaps, not being


    able to torment Skyler, he chose to torment himself instead.


    He was polite, and so was Cornelia. “Mr. Rivera, where’s President Hartley?”


    Zavier pointed to the house behind him, “He’s inside waiting for you. You go fetch him.”


    “Thanks, Mr. Rivera‘‘ Cornelia was still wary of Zavier, so she didn’t just barge in. She inspected her


    surroundings, ensuring there was no danger before stepping inside


    But she didn’t expect the sight and sounds that greeted her, causing her to blush. She immediately


    backed out and softly closed the door, “Zavier, have you gone nuts? President Hartley’s wife is here


    too, and you’re asking me to fetch him.”


    Zavier chuckled, “Are you sure that’s President Hartley’s wife?”


    Cornelia was taken aback, “What do you mean?”


    Zavier lit another cigarette and took a few drags, Tonight, after Marc dropped you home, he ran into


    Natalia. She’s been infatuated with Marc for years, and she made another move on him tonight. Marc


    was going to reject her, but he had a few drinks, and well, things happened.”


    Zavier was convincing, but Cornelia just couldn’t believe it. She had faith that Marcus would never do


    such a thing, “Mr. Rivera, you better not be spewing nonsense. A man of integrity cares about his


    reputation.”


    Zavier stepped closer, seemingly trying to overpower Cornelia with his height, “You trust him that


    much?”


    Cornelia stood her ground, ‘I’m his employee, and he pays my sry. Why would I trust you over him?”


    Zavier, “Then what did you see just now? What did you hear?”


    Cornelia was mortified. “I…”


    She gritted her teeth and forced herself to stay calm, “I didn’t get a clear look at the two people on the


    bed, nor did I hear clearly How am I supposed to know that it was Marcus?”


    She had switched from calling him “President Hartley” to “Marcus,” a detail that didn’t escape Zavier, “If


    you’re not sure, you can always go back in to check.”


    “That wouldn’t be appropriate… I don’t want to intrude,” said Cornelia. Despite this, she was itching to


    go back in and confirm whether it was Marcus and Natalia in the room. Otherwise, the doubt would nag


    at her like a thorn in her side, probably affecting her work in the future.This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
