Chapter 41
Cornelia had to pull out all the stops to convince Zack and Abigail to let her s**p the hospital stay, and
now they’re all in the car heading home
Abigail was still nagging, “Nelly, what if you have internal injury? I’ve got all supplies for you, but you
still wouldn’t stay in the hospital”
Cornelia pinched her face. There was no need for the hospital. Their beds are nowhere near as comfy
as the ones at home. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a month and a half I miss my bed so much”
Still shaken. Zack gripped the steering wheel tightly. “You got fortunate tonight. It was so close. We
could’ve lost you.”
After having barbeque tonight, Zack went to get the car from the parking lot, Abigail went to the
restroom, and Cornelia was waiting outside the restaurant when suddenly, a car came speeding
towards her.
Thankfully, Cornelia reacted quickly and dodged behind a nearby tree, avoiding serious injury However,
she still took a fall and scraped her elbow
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe car crashed into the tree, causing significant damage to both the vehicle and the driver.
Fortunately, the ambulance arrived in time, and the driver’s life was not in danger
A notification from her phone interrupted their conversation. Cornelia picked it up to see a message
from Leonardo.
She couldn’t believe it when Leonardo mentioned Marcus’ wife cheating on him.
But on second thought, it didn’t seem impossible.
Before, whenever Marcus mentioned his wife, he had a gentle expression, but later, he forbade them to
bring her up.
Cornelia sighed, “Zack, drop me off at Shimmer Club when we pass by”
Abigail asked, “Why? Are you going to be the driver for your heartless boss again?”
Cornelia chuckled, “I’m his assistant, can’t avoid these things.”
“You’re about to get the copyright fee. You’re not short of money. Can you quit?” Zack tried to persuade
her, but they all knew work gave her a sense of security
As her best friends, they had to support her work “Well go with you. Well drop him off and pick you up
to go home together.”
“This is my job, you can’t always be with me” Cornelia patted their shoulders, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care
of myself.”
They didn’t want to put too much pressure on Cornelia, so they didn’t insist and dropped her off at the
entrance of Shimmer Club, watching her go in before leaving
Cornelia quickly found the private room where Marcus was
Seeing her, Leonardo lit up with a bright smile and opened his arms for a hug, “Ms. Stewart, it’s been
ages! I’ve missed you.”
“Mr. Wilson, hello!” Cornelia dodged his hug and glanced around the room, seeing only him, “Did you
lie to me?”
“I wouldn’t dare “Leonardo pointed to the balcony.
Cornelia looked over and saw Marcus on the phone. She hadn’t noticed him before because the
balcony light was off.
Leonardo said, “Cornelia, have you ever considered using your advantage to get ahead?”
Cornelia raised an eyebrow, Leonardo, what do you mean?”
Leonardo moved closer to Cornelia conspiratorially. The news of President Hartley’s wife cheating on
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhim has spread like wildfire in our circle. Many women want to take advantage of this and snatch
President Hartley for themselves, but they can’t even get close to him. You, on the other hand, are with
him every day. It is your chance”
Cornelia wanted to punch Leonardo. Could this guy think about anything other than relationships all
day? “Leonardo, you better shut up.”
Leonardo couldn’t believe any woman could resist Marcus, ‘Marcus is rich, handsome, fit, and he
doesn’t fool around outside. Haven’t you ever thought about being with him?”
“Not at all. Not even a little Cornelia answered sensibly, ‘Mr. Wilson, if you don’t want me to lose my
job, please don’t mention things like this.”

Just as she finished speaking, the sliding door to the balcony opened, and Marcus walked in.
His ordinarily neat hair now had a few strands hanging down messily. Beads of water dotted his face
And his eyes behind his silver-framed glasses looked a bit hazy. He looked like hed had a bit too much
to drink
