Chapter 243 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• “Argh!” A man let out a scream as his arm was twisted “Where the hell did you come from, sticking your nose into our business? Are you asking for trouble?” The rest of the group quickly surmounded him, pulling out knives hidden in their pockets, ready to stab Marcus The sunlight glinted off the knives, flashing before Comelia’s eye. It made her heart flutter, “President Hartley watch out!” Without a moment’s hesitation, she rushed out from behind the two boys, trying to help Marcus. But her path was blocked by a sturdy figure. Marcus grabbed her, forcitly pulling her back. Before they could even touch the hem of Marcus’s clothes. Ayden had shown up on the scene, knocking them all to the ground one by one Realizing they were up against a stronger opponent, they scrambled to their feet and tried to run. Feeling the danger had passed, Cornelia breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly realized they couldn’t let these people escape just like that, “These people might be hurnan traffickers We can’t let them get away. I’ve called the police, and they should be here soon.”
• “Ayden, don’t let them escape” After instructing Ayden, Marcus pulled Cornelia back again, “You knew there was danger ahead and you still charged forward Don’t you realize how senous this is?” Faced with danger, Cornelia didn’t have time to think too much. She instinctively wanted to protect him, “I can’t let you get hurt. Your safety affects the entire Hartley Group, and all of us who rely on the Hartley Group for our living and to pay off our mortgages Marcus was infuriated by her words, “is money more important than life?” Cornelia smiled faintly. “Isn’t money important?” Marcus responded, ‘Is money as important as life?” Cornelia said, “You’ve lived a comfortable life since childhood, so you don’t know that there are many people in this world struggling to survive.
• You can’t understand why some people might resort to stealing or robbery just to get a full meal” Cornelia had seen news about children in poor areas who couldn’t even afford a new pair of shoes Not long ago, there was someone who jumped off a building because of hunger Her life wasn’t as harsh as those people in the news. Since she was young, her grandmother had always taken good care of her. During college, she also earned some money by drawing cartoons part–time However, the money she earned was far from enough to start a cartoon studio. In order to raise funds for the studio, the three of them rented the cheapest house and could only afford one meal a day Back then, they had tried all sorts of methods, but none could raise enough money.
