Chapter 39 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Bitch? Marcus locked at Courtney with an icy stare as if looking at a stranger. No one could tell that they were mother and son When Marcus looked at Courtney, she couldn’t even lock eyes with him. This man before her was her son. The one she had given birth to after carrying him for ten months. She hadn’t cared for him since he was young, so they were estranged. He was nothing like her Everyone has the right to criticize her, but not you. I know what you did all these years. And if you mess with my people again, I don’t mind showing you what I’m capable of “With that. Marcus turned and left. Spending another second with Courtney would make him nauseous. “Marc, did you come all this way today just to warn me not to get close to your assistant?” Courtney said, testing her son. Marcus didn’t answer her, but Courtney got the answer she wanted anyway. He had not heard her entire conversation with Helena. If he knew his wife and assistant were the same person, he wouldn’t act like this right now!
• Maybe he didn’t have feelings for his assistant. He came to look for her only because she had reached out to his people. He was similar to her even if he had to discard his things, he would never give them to others. As soon as Marcus left, Courtney returned to her arrogant posture “Willy, he knows we’re going after his little assistant. Handle this discreetly, and don’t involve us.” Willy respectfully replied, “Don’t worry, ma’am. I’ve already arranged everything. She brought this upon herself, so today, well make her leave Riverton in the most humiliating way possible” When Cornelia returned to the city, it was already 3 PM. She didn’t know that Marcus had been following her in his car back to the hotel Cornelia exited the car, collected her thoughts, and immediately smiled when she saw Ben approaching her. “Ben…” Ben questioned her as soon as he saw her. “Cornelia, we agreed to meet at the banquet hall at 9 AM. Why are you just coming now? I called you many times, but you didn’t answer” Cornelia had always been diligent and responsible at work. Ben had never seen her late in the more than half a year they had worked together.
• Ben thought that maybe Marcus had asked Cornelia to do something else, so he didn’t pursue the matter. Now that Cornelia was back, he couldn’t help but nag her a bit. Cornelia apologized with a smile, Tm sorry, just some personal matters held me up. Are all the guests here?” “All the guests are here, but President Hartley hasn’t arrived yet.” Just as he finished speaking, Ben saw Marcus‘ tall figure approaching “President Hartley “They both greeted Marcus as he approached. Marcus glanced at Cornelia but didn’t say anything, heading straight inside Cornelia and Ben immediately followed him The banquet hall was brightly lit, with the sound of conversation everywhere Marcus dealt with his business partners individually, with Cornelia and Ben close behind him. Talking with other business people took two hours. When Marcus was hanging out with his buddies, Cornelin and Ben didn’t need to stick around, so the two finally had a chance to take a break. Cornelia ordered a juice from the waiter, found a quiet corner, took off her high heeled shoes, and decided to chill As soon as she sat down, she felt some not–so–friendly eves staring at her She looked up and saw Nataba Tonight, Natalia was wearing a red evening gown, looking quite eye–catching among the crowd. Before Marcus arrived, many people thought she would become Marcus future wife, so they hung around her However, when Marcus arrived, everyone’s attention shifted to him and his assistant Natalia always looked at Marcus, but he didn’t pay her attention.
