    Chapter 1022


    Everyone had got a greedy side. With the world’s poption being so huge, it was only normal that


    there were some greedy folks out there, or so though really ground her gears was when these greedy


    people exploited innocent women just to get some attention.


    Sallie said, “I’m done trusting people. You need me to do something, just give me a holler. I’ll bend over


    backwards to help you.”


    Cornelia responded, “Sounds great, I’ll take you out for a meal when I get back to Riverton, gotta hang


    up now.”


    Granny Reba’s stuff had been packed up, no need for Cornelia to stick around in Rosenberg. So,


    she and a few others hopped on a red-eye back to Riv they got home, it was past midnight. But Marcus


    was still as chipper as ever, and they kept busy for almost two hours.


    Cornelia wasn’t sure if it was because she was beat, but Marcus was unusually passionate in bed that


    night. So passionate, it was like he wanted to melt


    In her half-asleep state, she could faintly hear Marcus calling her name in his husky voice, “Cornelia,


    Cornelia.”

    His voice was like a luby, and she drifted off to sleep peacefully.


    When Cornelia woke up again, it was already noon and her man was probably up and about. Business


    had been buzzingtely, and Marcus had a lot on his her, he had to hold video conferences since he


    couldn’t make it to the office.


    She had originally nned to go to work with Marcus the day after theirte-night flight back to


    Riverton, but with what happenedst night and all the bus in till noon. Guess she would have to go to


    work tomorrow.


    Cornelia rolled over, nning to get some more Z’s, when Marcus called, “You’re awake, get up and


    grab a bite.”


    “How’d you know I’m awake? Did you bug the room?” Cornelia looked around, “Did you get our actions<pst night on tape?”


    Marcus chuckled on the other end of the line, “What are you thinking?”


    Cornelia asked, “Did you bug the room? Let me tell you, surveince footage can be easily hacked, you


    should never put one in the bedroom or…”


    Marcus cut her off, “I didn’t!”


    Cornelia sighed in relief, “Good. But how’d you know I’m awake?”


    Marcus answered, “I just guessed based on your sleeping pattern. Now get up and eat.”


    Cornelia whined, “You were too passionatest night, I can barely feel my legs.”


    Her voice was seductive, yful even.


    But instead of Marcus’ voice, she heard Ben cough awkwardly, “President Hartley, your phone is on


    speaker.”


    Marcus was in a meeting, calling her, with his phone on speaker. That meant, their entire conversation


    was heard by everyone in the meeting room.


    Cornelia hung up immediately and burrowed back into her covers.


    She was livid! How was she supposed to show her face at work now!


    She furiously texted Marcus: [Marcus, did you do that on purpose to embarrass me? Now everyone


    knows what we didst night.]


    Marcus replied swiftly: [Darling, my phone’s still connected to the projector.]


    Cornelia was speechless.
