Chapter 597


    Chapter 597


    Did Marcus Hartley know that she knew they were married?


    How did he know? When did he know?


    Did she identally spill the beans?


    No way, she hadn’t figured out how to y the wife role yet, she absolutely cant fess up.


    So, Comelia Stewart decided that until she figured out how to handle her new role with Marcus, she


    wouldn’t admit it, “President Hartley, what, what are you talking about?


    I’m totally lost”


    Her stuttering voice and clueless eyes were screaming guilt.


    Still wouldn’t fess up, huh?


    Marcus chuckled, “Not ready to admit it, huh?”


    Marcus was no dummy, there was no way he could not see the changes in Cornelia recently


    In the past, whenever he made even the slightest move that went beyond their rtionship in work,


    Cornelia would instinctively avoid it and quickly create distance between


    them.


    But now, every time he touched her, he could see the struggle and turmoil in her eyes.


    A few days ago, she had run to the hospitalte at night, asking him some weird questions about


    Jeremy, and then texted Jeremy asking for a divorce on WhatsApp


    During the days he took her to Celestial Chateau, he was quietly observing her every move.


    When she hesitantly asked him if he had an affair with Natalia behind her back, he confirmed his


    suspicions.


    Marcus was grateful that Cornelia voiced her doubts directly, giving him the chance to exin.


    Cornelia decided to stick to her guns, ‘President Hartley, what do you want me to admit?”


    Marcus took her hand and brought it to his nose, his voice sexy and captivating. “It’s okay, I’ll give you


    a few more days.”


    Today was May 4th, four more days until May 8th.


    It’d been two years, and he didn’t mind waiting for her for another four days.


    Cornelia wasn’t used to this level of intimacy, and she instinctively backed away, which triggered a


    strong possessiveness in Marcus.


    She retreated, he advanced, cornering her against the car window, “Cornelia, stop trying to avoid me,


    not in this life, not even in the next.”


    From the moment they got married, she was his wife, and he wouldn’t allow her to avoid him anymore.


    When he was with her, Marcus was always a perfect gentleman. She never knew he had this


    domineering side.


    Right now, she felt like amb who wandered into a wolf’s den, and he was like a wild beast, ready to


    devour her at any moment.


    Just as Cornelia was at a loss, the car stopped, Austin’s voice came through the car’s inte, “Marc,


    Cornelia, we’re here.”

    “Okay” Marcus responded, releasing the tie in Cornelia’s hair, letting it fall like a waterfall, loosely


    flowing over her shoulders.


    What did he take her for? Did he think she was his pet to toy with?


    Cornelia got angry. “Marcus, what on earth are you up to?”


    Marcus‘ eyes under his sses showed a smile, “Finally calling me by my name.”


    Cornelia was helpless at his response, “You…”


    Marcus casually yed with a strand of her hair, twirling it around his fingers.
