Chapter 682
Ben was fuming the more he thought about it. The two people he worked with every day turned out to be home
wreckers
It was so infumating!
What was even more infuriating was himself. Knowing well that they were both messing with other people’s
families, he still had to put on a smile and work with them, pretending as nothing had happened
He was really pitiful!
If there was a next life, he swore not to be Marcus’s assistant again. He’d be his own boss.
Before Ben could snap out of his thoughts, they had already arrived at the meeting room downstairs.

Initially, the staff from the two companies sat separately on either side of the large conference table. When
Cornelia followed Marcus into the meeting room, she saw everyone huddled together, especially a few girls who
were exceptionally enthusiastic and excited.
One colleague from the programming department was particularly loud, “You’re not even twenty–six yet, but
you’ve already secured the position of R&D Director at Moongazer Tech. Your future is truly limitless.”
“You flatter me!” Cornelia hadn’t seen the person yet, but she first heard the voice of today’s most attention–
grabbing person. The voice sounded nice enough, but it couldn’t compare to Marcus’s deep and sexy voice.
Clearing her throat, Cornelia coughed
Usually as soon as Marcus arrived, everyone would notice and stand to greet him. Today, Cornelia had to cough
several times to draw everyone’s attention.
“President Hartley” Everyone stood up and greeted Marcus.
Marcus waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and he headed straight for the main seat, “Mr. Sharp, sorry
for keeping you waiting!”
Mr. Sharp was one of the founders of Moongazer Tech, probably the person with the most say in their company.
Their company was a rising star, developing rapidly. However, compared to the massive Hartley Group, they were
like an ant to an elephant.
Facing Marcus, Mr. Sharp could only act like a little brother, “President Hartley, you are too kind, we just arrived
too.”
He gestured to the man next to him to step forward, and continued, “President Hartley, now let me formally
introduce you to Roman, our Chief Engineer at Moongazer Tech. He studied abroad and has many awards under his
belt. Most importantly, he is a native of Riverton The Padilla family should have some connections with your family”

Upon hearing this name, Cornelia, who had been preparing her paperwork, looked up and saw a familiar male face
as expected. When she looked at the man, he was also looking at her, even nodding and smiling at her in greeting
After a few glances, Cornelia withdrew her gaze and scoffed in her mind what a small world!
Marcus did remember the Padilla family from Riverton, “The Padilla family from the north of the city?”
Roman took his eyes off Cornelia and stood up to converse politely with Marcus, “Yes. I didn’t expect President
Hartley to remember.
Marcus’s knowledge of the Padilla family came entirely from his grandmother’s stories. She often mentioned that
when his great–grandfather first started running a garment. factory, they had been a great help.
As a result, his great–grandfather’s gratitude to the Padilla family lasted for decades, his grandfather also felt
grateful to the Padilla family. Even his grandmother often brought up the matter.
Their repeated mentions were to teach the next generation to be grateful and if the Padilla family was ever in need,
they must do their best to help.
