Chapter 667
Cornelia instinctively tried to dodge, but found herself comered against a wall with nowhere to go Helplessly, she
watched as Marcus once again dabbed ointment on her lips
His movements were careful and concentrated, as if not to miss any tiny wounds on her lips. Despite his gentleness,
Cornelia’s heart pounded. She thought if she didn’t look at him, she might not be so flustered. So, she closed her
eyes. But with her eyes closed, her senses became sharper.
She opened her eyes again, meeting his deep gaze.
“All done” His voice was a bit hoarse, and Cornelia thought she heard him swallow
Work was about to start, and Cornelia iried to ignore the turmoil he brought her, forcing herself into work mode
“President Hartley, we have an important schedule today We must leave right now or we might be late Cornelia

Marcus said “Hmm”
Comelia said, “TII drive, you can rest a bit more in the car
Marcus chuckled, “Alright”
As they left and got into the hotel’s sightseeing car, Comelia checked her phone. There was no payment notification
from Clair. She had given Clair until six last night to transfer the money. But now it was past seven in the moming,
well past the deadline.
Clearly, Clair hadn’t taken her warning seriously and had no intention of paying her back.
This was a mess Clair had made herself. If Cornelia didn’t teach her a lesson, she might think Cornelia couldn’t do
anything to her
Just as Cornelia was thinking about Clair, she called. It was as if they were telepathically connected.
They’d had a falling out, and Clair didn’t even bother to sound polite, “How about we make a deal?‘
Comelia laughed, “What kind of deal?”
Clair said seriously. “I have compromising photos of you and a man I can give you these photos, and you can drop
the matter of me wrecking your studio.”
Cornelia casually responded with an “oh“.
Clair asked, “You don’t believe me?”
Cornelia asked, “Why wouldn’t I?”
Clair always thought she was good at reading people, but she couldn’t figure out Cornelia at all.
“If you don’t believe me, I can send you the photos Clair wondered if Cornelia really didn’t care about the photos or
if she was just bold because she had Marcus backing
her.

Clair said, “You’re so calm knowing I have compromising photos of you. Is it because you have Marcus backing
you?”
Cornelia laughed, “With such a strong support, why wouldn’t I take advantage of it?”
Clair was hit where it hurt by Cornelia’s response. But she figured no man would want to share a woman with
another man, especially not Marcus.
Marcus had been fooled by this shameless person, but would he still feel the same after seeing those obscene
photos?
No way!
The thought of Cornelia losing Marcus’s protection made Clair very happy. “Once Marcus sees those photos, do you
think a man as noble as him would still want you?”
“If you want to objectify yourself, nobody cares. But you have no right to objectify other women.” Cornelia suddenly
felt a bit sick.
