Chapter 319 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- Comelia didn’t have a clear idea about how much one could earn from ad views Seeing Taylor so happy, Cornelia guessed that everyone could at least rake in a couple of thousands. Not only did she get back at the Reese family, but she could also make some dough. The thought made Cornelia extremely happy While delivering coffee to Marcus, she had a grin plastered on her face Marcus asked, “What’s got you so giddy?” Cornelia shrugged “Oh, nothing” The smile on her face definitely meant that it wasn’t nothing. Marcus didn’t buy it, but he didn’t push it further. As long as she was happy, it was all good After putting the coffee in its designated spot, Cornelia, as per the usual, stood in front of his desk to report the day’s itinerary. Cornelia said “President Hartley, at nine A M… we have to accompany the gentleman from Germany and show him around our Al factory at Riverton. Atten, we’ll be accompanying him to the Riverton museum to get him acquainted with the history and culture of Riverton.” “Uh–huh Marcus nodded, taking a sip of his coffee Cornelia glanced at her watch.
- It was half past eight half an hour to nine, I’m going to prepare some documents needed for the meeting” Marcus suddenly asked. “Did you grind the coffee today? It doesn’t taste bitter enough” Comelia had only slightly altered the taste of the coffee. She didn’t think Marcus would notice, but he did. She had to come clean, “Your stomach isn’t in the best condition, and you always drink freshly ground black coffee on an empty stomach. It’s not good for you. I added a bit of milk to your coffee, hoping you would gradually get used to it and eventually not prefer it so bitter.” Slowly but surely, invading his life, changing him. Just like she did! When she first came to him as an assistant, he didn’t feel anything special toward her. To him, she was just one of the many girls.
- But as they spent more and more time together, especially after learning she was his wife, she was influencing him, changing him.” Seeing that he was silent, Cornelia got a bit nervous, “President Hartley, if you feel I’m overstepping, then I’ll stop” “You’re not.” She knew about his stomach issues quite early on, but she never thought of changing his coffee during the year she worked with him. She was always diligent in her work, showing no care for his health. But now, knowing that he was Jeremy, she started adjusting his coffee on her first day back at work. This showed that she started caring about his health. This put Marcus in a good mood, “From now on, I’ll be drinking milk in the morning, no more coffee.” “Really? Can your body handle it?” Cornelia was a bit worried. Coffee was addictive, and it was hard for long–term coffee drinkers to quit right away Marcus said, “There’s nothing that one can’t quit if they want to.” Giving up habits like smoking, drinking, and coffee wasn’t something everyone could do easily. Usually, only those with strong self–control could do it In Cornelia s eyes, Marcus was such a man with extremely strong self–control!
