    These were the marks she left on him, and he didn’t want to erase them at all, hoping the scars could


    stay as long as possible. Cornelia said, “You think you’re invincible or something? You always think


    you’re fine, but you’re not even as fit as me.”


    Marcus couldn’tprehend how such a small body could utter those words. He said, “I’m beat. We


    should hit the sack.”


    The bed was small, they were close to each other, but no sexual thoughts crossed their minds. They


    just slept peacefully through the night.


    The next day, they both got up at the crack of dawn.


    The bathroom was tiny, they squeezed in together to brush their teeth and wash their faces. Their


    bodies, one tall and one short, reflected in the bathroom mirror. Oddly enough, it made them seem like


    a perfect match.


    Cornelia identally got some toothpaste foam on her nose, and Marcus naturally reached out to wipe


    it off for her. Cornelia didn’t find it strange at all, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.


    Then, they headed out.


    As soon as they left, Abigail and Zack bolted out of their rooms. They nced at each other and said in


    unison, “They didn’t do anythingst night! They’re newlyweds!” Abigail asked, “Don’t you think


    something’s off with them?”


    Zack replied, “I’m actually starting to dig Marcus.”


    Abigail asked, “Why’s that?”


    Zack replied, “You wouldn’t get it.”


    Cornelia wanted to head off to the office separately, but Marcus insisted on going with her. He said,


    “What’s wrong with you giving me a lift to work?” leaving Cornelia speechless.


    They arrived at the office early; only Ynda and a new colleague Cornelia was not very familiar with


    were there.


    After greeting them, Ynda pulled Cornelia aside, “Ms. Stewart, I’d like a word with you, do you have


    a moment?”


    Cornelia replied, “Yeah.”


    Ynda said, “Come with me.”


    Cornelia followed Ynda to her desk, where Ynda asked in a low voice, “Cornelia, what exactly is


    your rtionship with President Hartley?”


    Cornelia replied, “Superior and employee, why do you suddenly ask me that?”


    Ynda pressed on, “I’ll ask you again, what exactly is your rtionship with President Hartley?”


    Cornelia asked, “What’s wrong?”


    Ynda said, “Answer me.”


    Cornelia replied, “We’re superior and employee.”


    Cornelia didn’t want to tell Ynda the truth.


    After Cornelia’s firm answer, thest glimmer of hope in Ynda’s eyes vanished. She suddenly


    laughed, “Cornelia, I always thought you became President Hartley’s secretary based on your own


    abilities, but look at what you’ve done?”


    Cornelia asked, “What have I done?”


    Ynda sent Cornelia a video, “See for yourself.”


    Cornelia pulled out her phone and saw the video sent by Ynda. Cornelia yed the video, which


    showed her and Marcus. They were walking out of the office, chatting about something, when suddenly


    Marcus picked her up.


    Ynda asked, “Got anything to say now?”


    Cornelia was silent for a while, without answering. Seeing Cornelia’s silence, Ynda angrily said,


    “Cornelia, the evidence is right there, won’t you admit that you tried to seduce President Hartley? You


    know he’s married, yet you still tried to tempt him. Have you no shame?”


    Cornelia replied, “The video clearly shows him picking me up, why couldn’t he be the one trying to


    seduce me? Why is it that I’m the seducer? Is it because he’s a man? Or


    because he’s richer than me?”


    Ynda angrily said, “You… you’re shameless!”N?velDrama.Org is the owner.
