Chapter 624
“Mr. Wilson, Mr. Ryan, we didn’t grab a bite at the banquet How about we go grab something now?” Cornelia
suggested, leading the way with Leonardo and Pyan in tow
As they walked, Cornelia had the nagging feeling that she was being watched Following her instincts, she saw
Natalia looking at her with longing as if she had a lot to say
but couldn’t find the words.
Cornelia didn’t dare approach Natalia The Reese family were currently mad as a hornet at her. If she were to
approach Natalia now, who knew what they might do to the poor girl after she left
All she could do was pretend she hadn’t seen Natalia and sent her a WhatsApp message. “I know you were forced
into today’s mess. I don’t blame you. If you’re up for it, I can still hook you up with a job”

Looking back, Leonardo commented, “The Reese’s might not be rolling out the red carpet for us anymore”
Ryan scoffed. “You’re thinking of coming back here?”
Leonardo sighed. “We grew up together, didn’t we? Cameron was like a brother to me. I thought we were all
straight up with each other, but I guess..
Ryan cut him off. “You must be blind. I’ve never been straight with him, and Marc wouldn’t either.”
Leonardo retorted, “Don’t rub it in. Any more and I’ll start questioning my intelligence.”
Cornelia reassured. “Mr. Wilson, your intelligence is not the problem. If you hadn’t gotten your hands on the CCTV
footage, I would’ve been in deep water.”
Leonardo grumbled, “Don’t remind me. I went to get the footage thinking my status would help, but they wouldn’t
even let me see it.”
Cornelia queried. “So the footage came from President Hartley?”
Before he could answer, Cornelia had already guessed. Leonardo was clearly displeased, “Do you think Marc can do
anything?”
Cornelia nodded, “Yes”
Leonardo was taken aback, “Cornelia, let’s cut ties! Pretend we don’t know each other even if we run into each
other.”
Comelia asked, “What’s wrong?”
Leonardo replied, “You’ve hurt me so much, and you’re asking me what’s wrong?”
Cornelia protested. “I hurt you? How?”
Leonardo accused, “Why did you instantly guess that Marc gave me the footage? Why is Marc so omnipotent in
your eyes?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia explained logically. “Who else could it be other than President Hartley? Is it shameful to lose to President
Hartley, Mr. Wilson?”
Leonardo pondered, “I guess it’s not shameful How many people can even compete with President Hartley?”
Cornelia agreed. ‘Exactly! So he gave you the footage, right?”
Leonardo admitted, “Not only did Marc give me the footage, but he also told me what to say. The Reese family
admitting their plot was also because of Marc.”
Cornelia knew that the sudden turn of events was all thanks to Marcus. But she wasn’t sure how much Marcus had
done for her behind the scenes.
Maybe Marcus had done much more for her than she realized. The better he treated her, the more she didn’t know
how to face him.
By the time they finished their conversation, they had already left the mansion and reached the front gate.
A conspicuous car was parked at the gate
Marcus, tall and straight, was standing by the car, seemingly waiting for someone. And it looked like he had been
waiting for a while.
