    Chapter 765


    Marcus‘ deep and strong voice reached Comelia’s ears, like a potent dose of tranquilizer, instantly


    calming her restless heart.


    She unconsciously moved closer to him, as if hoping to draw strength from him. “You knew I was going


    to stir up trouble, why didn’t you stop me?”


    Comelia’s question caught him off guard, but Marcus understood her meaning. “Why would I stop you?


    Whatever you want to do, as long as you’re up for it, go for it without a second thought.”


    As long as her safety wasn’t at risk, he would support whatever she wanted to do; no matter what kind


    of mess she made, he would clean up for her.


    Cornelia asked, “How much did you fork over to the people of Marina Cove to smooth over the


    punching incident?”


    Marcus replied, “I merely gave out the mid–year bonuses early.”


    Cornelia, “Really?”

    Marcus, “Yep.”


    Corne, “Do you know how much it hurt me when I heard you distributed a ton of money to the


    vigers?”


    Marcus smirked and patted her head, “I’m a businessman, not a fool.”


    Who said he wasn’t a fool?


    When she got into a brawl, he didn’t stop her but secretly sent someone to clean up her mess. If that


    was not what a fool would do, then what was? And he had the nerve to say he was not one.


    Cornelia nestled into his chest, nuzzling him slightly, “In the future, when I act impulsively, you have to


    stop me.”


    Marcus hugged her closer, gently patting her back, “Sure.”


    “Granny, Cornelia, brother… Briana, upon hearing the news, immediately dropped everything and


    rushed over.


    Seeing Briana sweating bullets, Cornelia immediately took out a tissue from her bag to wipe her sweat,


    “You ran too hard. Look at you, all worn out.”


    Briana, “I’m worried about Granny Reba. Cornelia, she will be okay, right?”


    Comelia, “Yep, she’ll be fine.”


    Zack looked at Briana, “Briana? Briana? Are you Marcus‘ sister?”


    Hearing her name, Briana immediately turned around, “Zack? Zack, what are you doing here?”


    Comelia, “When did you two meet?”


    Briana, “We bonded overics, we’ve been online buddies for two or three years. Recently, when I


    returned to Riverton, he mentioned that he was also in Riverton, so we met up and had a great chat.”


    Zack was taken aback, “How could you be Marcus‘ sister?”


    Briana, “What’s wrong with me being Marcus‘ sister? Does being Marcus‘ sister mean I can’t be friends


    with you?”


    Zack scratched his head and gave a bewildered smile, “No, I didn’t mean it like that. I’m just saying


    you’re really cute and sincere. Aside from both of you being easy on the eyes, you and Marcus don’t


    seem to have anything inmon. Even though your names ovep, I never thought you might be


    Marcus‘ sister, or rted to the Hartley family.”


    Brianaughed, “Betterte than never, right? By the way, what brings you here?”


    Zack excitedly replied, “Comelia and I go way back. We grew up together.”
