Cornelia had nothing to retort
Oops!!
She actually thought Zack’s analysis made sense
Chapter 160
Rumor has it that Marcus doesn’t like women, and Cornelia has been following him for seven or eight
months without seeing him get close to his wife
To be honest, it’s possible that he really has some issues, and that’s why he’s afraid to get close to
women
Zack said, “Nelly, let me tell you, these kinds of guys with issues can be real freaks in private. Since
you’re living in his house, you better be careful
Cornelia replied, “You can say he has physical problems, but you can’t question his character”

Dr. Dawson’s voice suddenly sounded behind them, starting them, and when they turned around to see
Marcus there, Cornelia was immediately frightened
How long had he been there?
Did he hear her conversation with Zack?
If he knew she was gossiping about his private life behind his back, he would definitely fire her in anger.
Cornelia sneaked a glance at Marcus, he looked as calm as usual, and he didn’t even give her an extra
look.
Cornelia quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
The food is ready, let’s go to the dining room first “If Cornelia had given just a little more attention to Dr.
Dawson, she would have noticed the awkwardness behind his enthusiasm
The four of them began to eat, and the food on the table catered to everyone’s tastes.
Especially the stewed oxtail in red wine, Cornelia’s eyes were immediately attracted She immediately
said, “Zack, you have to try this dish.”
“Alright, let me try it “Zack suddenly felt a murderous intent coming towards him, and instinctively
thought it was Marcus, the one who made him feel threatened.
Zack looked up at Marcus, but Marcus was eating intently and gracefully, not looking at him.
Marcus was very concerned that Cornelia was only talking to Zack, but as long as he was willing to
hide his emotions, no one could tell.
Not only did his wife discuss the topic of whether he had problems with other men, but she also took
care of other men at the dinner table and ignored him.
After the meal, Zack leaned back in his chair, lazily took out a cigarette, and put it in his mouth. Before
he could light it, Cornelia snatched it away. You quit smoking already? When did you start again?”
Zack said. “1…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia, “We’ve told you so many times not to smoke, but you still do.”
Zack’s grandfather used to be a smoker, and even after being diagnosed with lung cancer, he
continued to smoke. He could have lived a few more years, but because of smoking, he died within
three months. That’s why Cornelia and Abigail wouldn’t allow Zack to smoke.
Zack said, Thave quit smoking. It’s just that sometimes I feel like having one. Don’t be mad, I promise I
won’t smoke again.”
Cornelia coldly said. “If you dare to smoke again, I won’t care about your health anymore.”
Zack replied, “I promise I won’t smoke again.”
Marcus glanced at Cornelia unhappily. Why didn’t she care when he smoked?
She seemed to care a lot about other men smoking.
Marcus couldn’t stand it anymore. If he couldn’t care for her, at least he wanted her to care for him.
So, Marcus also took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then took out a lighter.
With a snap, the flame lit up, but he didn’t light the cigarette. He was waiting for Cornelia to snatch the
cigarette from his hand…
