Chapter 787
Hannah was still in disbelief, “Cornelia, you’re his wife?”
Marcus replied, “Yeah, Cornelia is my wife.”
Hannah looked at Cornelia again, the two of them made a good pair, pretty easy on the eyes. But no matter how
good they looked together, it didn’t change the fact that.
Well, the people involved in a relationship knew best and outsiders had no place to butt in. Although Hannah was
confused, she didn’t voice it out. Rosie, always one to speak her mind, asked outright, Marcus, Cornelia, have you
two split up with your previous partners?”
Marcus explained. “There was no previous partner. My wife has always been Cornelia!”

Lucas, wrapping his arm around his wife, said, “Weren’t you just saying that Marcus and Cornelia make a perfect
couple and you hoped that Cornelia would be Marcus’s wife? Now you’re acting all shocked as if you can’t accept
it.“,
Rosie responded, “It’s not that I can’t accept it. I’m just too shocked and I still don’t understand what’s really
happening.”
Steven suggested, This is a long story, let’s all sit down and have dinner first, we can chat while we eat.”
“You guys go ahead and sit, I have some things I want to discuss privately with Cornelia.” Hannah felt that everyone
else seemed to know about Marcus and Cornelia’s situation and only she and Rosie were left in the dark
She had to ask Cornelia what was really going on.
Steven chuckled and said, “Honey, is there something you can’t ask in front of me? You know, I’m a bit worried
about Cornelia.”
Cornelia replied bluntly. “Steven, as long as you treat Hannah well, she will stand by you no matter what anyone
says. Are you so worried about me being alone with her because you’re not treating her well?”
Steven looked helplessly at Marcus, “Marcus, can you manage your wife?”
Marcus backed Cornelia without hesitation, “Did she say anything wrong?”
Cornelia gave Marcus a grateful look for always standing by her side and supporting her.
Steven complained, “You always listen to your wife! Are you even the Marcus | know?”
Lucas chimed in, “Steven, just let them talk. You’re always clinging to your wife like a stalker, won’t she get tired of
you?”

Marcus said, “Let’s go.”
Steven had no response, and Lucas simply dragged Steven away.
Rosie commented, “Hannah, your husband really is clingy.”
Hannah gave a slight laugh and didn’t continue the topic. She turned to Cornelia, “Cornelia, can you explain to us
what’s going on with you and Marcus?”
Rosie interrupted, “Wait, I have something to say”
Cornelia said, “Alright, you go first.”
Rosie said, “Before you guys arrived, I was telling everyone that I hoped you and Marcus were a thing. I knew
Marcus was bringing his wife to meet us today and I had a bit of a hard time accepting it. I had no idea that you
were actually his wife. Did I hit the nail on the head or what?”
Cornelia laughed and replied, “Yes, your prediction was spot on. You always seem to predict what’s coming.”
