Chapter 16 Escaped Unscathed
The next day, early morning.
Janice hurriedly finished freshening up and walked downstairs. Then she saw Marcus having breakfast.
Hearing the movement coming from the stairs, Marcus turned around and said to Janice's direction,
"Good morning!"
"Morning!" Janice responded politely.
"Janice, come over for breakfast."
Marcus leaned forward, fumbled and pulled away the chair beside him, motioning Janice to sit next to
him.
"Thank you! I won't have breakfast at home. I can grab a bite next to the company later."
"Are you going to work?" Marcus asked.
"Yes! I checked with my mobile phone yesterday. There is a bus near the villa that can go to the city,
and then I just need to take another bus to the company, which is much more convenient than I
thought." Janice said as she took out her mobile phone to re-read the ride route. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Marcus frowned, "You are now the hostess of the Clinton family. You don't need to work hard to make
money. Just stay at home and enjoy yourself."
"It's really good to be Mrs. Clinton, but I don't want to be a canary in captivity. I finally graduated from
university. I really want to apply what I have learned and earn money by myself!" Janice's words were
sonorous and loud.
Marcus nodded, "You can go to work, but the villa is far away from the city. I will arrange a special car
and driver for you, so that it will be more convenient for you to commute to and get off work every day."
"Don't bother! I used to take the bus to work. I would definitely not adapt to this kind of special car.
What's more..." Janice hesitated, and didn’t continue.
"What?" Marcus asked.
"Others don't know that I’m married." Janice frowned. She paused for a few seconds, and explained, "I
am just an intern now. It would not be nice to get married when I first joined the company. When I get
used to the work, I’ll gradually tell others in the company."
Janice was worried that Marcus would be angry because of this, so she glanced at him.
Marcus' face was cold. His dark eyes were deep, with a layer of smoke, which made her unable to
distinguish his true emotions.
"It's up to you." Marcus turned the wheelchair with both hands and gradually approached Janice,
"However, if you need help, you must tell me."
"Well, I will." Janice nodded.
Janice walked into the company's gate on time.
Her good friend, Chloe Hunt, quickly pulled her aside and asked, "Janice, what happened? Your sister
said you are married? I called you but you didn't answer the phone."
Janice sighed. Then she briefly told Chloe how she was cheated by Ryan and married to Marcus.
"Janice, it's a miracle that you are still alive now!" Chloe held Janice’s hands tightly. She said seriously,
"I usually pay attention to the gossip news of the rich. I have heard all these things you said. There are
indeed many similar plots among the rich."
"Then... do you have any suggestions?"
"My suggestion is that you quickly find a way to divorce Marcus!"
"Why?"
"It is said that when Marcus' mother gave birth to him, his feet actually came out before the head. The
people in the Clinton family thought he was an ominous person, so he was not treated well from the
time he was born. Maybe it’s the reason why he is violent. There are rumors that he kills others at
every turn."
"Stop gossip! I think it's okay. He is usually very kind to others, and he doesn't do anything to me..."
"You’d better be cautious!"
Janice nodded slightly, and said with a serious expression on her face, "Please keep the secret for me
that I got married with Marcus, okay?"
"Don't worry. I will be tight-lipped. I'm just curious. Although Marcus' reputation is not very good, it is a
good thing for you to marry into the Clinton family. Besides, it is good for your work. Why don't you want
others to know? "
"Maybe soon, I will leave the Clinton family. Marcus told me that when I find my true love, he will
divorce me!"
"Oh! I hope you can escape unscathed!" Chloe sighed in the tea room.
