Chapter 317 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- Comelia tried to defend herself, but once faced with Marcus deep eyes that seemed like an abyss, she was left speechless She thought their previous interaction was just fine, she just wanted to maintain a purely professional relationship with him. But, even if she couldn’t accept the change in their relationship, she couldn’t change the fact that Marcus was her husband As her husband, it was normal for him to want a closer relationship. “Today’s May 8th, and our date tonight will proceed as planned Marcus announced with a firm tone, implying that he had decided and didn’t need Cornelia’s opinion. Today was May 8th? It was already May 8th? Comelia was a bit flustered and confused, “President Hartley, can we not…” Before she could finish, Marcus had already decisively rejected her, “No” Cornelia blinked sadly, her eyes reddening Seeing her like this, Marcus‘ heart softened, “After I dropped you off last night, I thought a lot. If you don’t want to make our relationship public, then we’ll just be boss and employee during work. But after work, you’re not allowed to hide from me Nothing would change during work, just after work. Cornelia thought she could accept this arrangement. Just as she was about to nod in agreement, Ben’s voice came from the side, “Cornelia? Cornelia?
- What are you doing, why aren’t you parking your car?” Ben had been working at the Hartley Group for many years, so his parking spot was in the best location on the first basement floor. He normally wouldn’t go to the fourth basement floor Today his spot was closed due to a burst water pipe, so he parked on the fourth basement floor While looking for a spot, he accidentally noticed a familiar car. He rolled down the window and yelled. Startled by his loud voice, she quickly parked her car in the garage. Her car had just moved when Marcus‘ tall figure appeared in front of Ben, “President Hartley, good morning! Why are you here?” Afraid of what Marcus might say, Cornelia quickly explained, ‘President Hartley’s driver was feeling unwell today, so I went to pick him up I forgot to let him out first, so brought him here.” “I see” Ben quickly parked his car next to Cornelia’s spot.
- After locking his car, he briskly walked towards them Unexpectedly, Marcus‘ icy gaze made him shudder, “President Hartley.” Marcus didn’t even acknowledge him, he just turned around and walked away with large strides. Ben, still in shock, looked at Cornelia with pleading eyes, “Cornelia, what’s up with our boss today? Did I say something wrong?” After a few days off, he just came back to work today. Why did Marcus look so serious? Did he do something wrong again? “It’s probably because I was a bit late picking him up, it has nothing to do with you Let’s hurry and catch up to him.” Cornelia quickened her pace to keep up with Marcus, they all entered the executive elevator. Marcus stood at the front of the elevator. Cornelia looked up slightly, silently watching his back. He was tall and straight, like a towering mountain standing in front of Cornelia In the past, Cornelia always thought of him as an unreachable person. Now, even though she knew he was her husband, someone she could touch, she still felt that he was like a star in the sky far from her reach. This feeling wasn’t comforting.
