Chapter 272
Briana had no intention of wrapping her head around these complex matters. With a dismissive wave of
her hand, she said, “Nah, I don’t wanna learn. Teach Cornelia. She wants to learn, and you want to
teach Don’t drag me the non–student type into this
“You have to learn Marcus turned towards Cornelia He looked at her gently and said “if you want to
learn, let’s learn together”
Cornelia was all too happy to accept this attention. She hopped up excitedly. “Treally want to Mr.
Hartley, could you wait for me for two minutes? I’m going to get my pen and notebook
“Go ahead” Watching her retreating figure Marcus’s mood also became brighte
Just the fact that she could study with him made her incredibly happy, she was such an easily
contented person
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBriana was forced into a state of studying Whenever she had to study, she would feel sleepy. But
Cornelia was very serious about her studies, not only listening attentively but also taking notes, like an
exemplary student. Briana watched as the two of them, one seriously explaining the other seriously
listening Their attention was all focused on the ancient book, fully engrossed, completely oblivious to
her slacking off
Sneakily she took out her comic book to continue reading, occasionally stealing glances at Marcus,
afraid that he might discover she wasn’t paying attention.
What she didn’t know was that she was just an excuse for Marcus to get close to Comelia. He really
only wanted to teach Cornella
“Mr Hartie, I don’t recognize this word Cornelia pointed to an unfamiliar ancient character, looking at
him with hopeful eyes. “Can you help me identify it?”
Marcus leaned towards her naturally. He once again caught a whiff of her unique scent. She didn’t
wear any perfume, so why did she always smell faintly sweel?
“Mi Hartie,” he was too close, Comelia could smell the faint scent of mint on him. She instinctively took
a step back, “Do you recognize this?”
Pulling himself together. Marcus responded. “It means husband
“Husband“” Cornelia looked at it a few times, then said, “Mr. Hartley, so is this little story about a couple
who separated after getting married, then didn’t recognize each other when they met again?
if it wasn’t for the fact that he knew she was serous about her studies, Marcus might have thought she
knew something. “Yes This is a story about a couple who separated after their wedding, and could still
love each other when they met again”
“This man is so inresponsible!” Perhaps thinking of herself, Comelia sighed, “He left his newlywed wife
alone at home right after their wedding We’re lucky in this era. He must not have known how hard it
was for his wife What an unreliable man
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarcus tried to defend the male protagonist, “This man was also forced by life to leave his hometown
and new wife. But after recognizing his wife, he treated her with all his heart. He can sort of be
considered a good husband, right?”
Comelia didn’t want to dwell on this issue. She had no position to judge the right or wrong of the people
in the story After all, she wasn’t the one involved, didn’t know the situation at the time, and couldn’t
understand the whole event from a few words.
“Cornelia Marcus suddenly called her name.
Cornelia looked up at him, always feeling that she saw something in his eyes. But his emotion
disappeared too quickly, so fast that Cornella doubted whether she saw wrong.
“Come with me to the Elite Auctions in Harbor City tomorrow Marcus hadnt forgotten that tomorrow was
the day Jeremy would return to Riverton, and Jeremy couldn’t meet Cornelia for the time being He
could only take Comelia away when Jeremy returned to Riverton, so as not to let them meet
“Alright I get ready night away” Cornelia knew that the Elite Auctions was a famous charity auction
