She was supposed to be his wife, but he couldn’t tell her, and that made him feel really uncomfortable He gave this to you, so just take it
Cornelia corrected him. It’s not for me it’s for your wife”
Before she could finish, Marcus took the box, pulled out the bracelet inside, and quickly put it on her wrist No one is more suitable to accept this gift than you”
He was so fast that Cornelia didnt even have time to react before the bracelet was already on her wrist
She hurriedly tried to take it off, but Marcus said. “She went wear something someone else has worn.”
Cornelia knew who she was. So he didn’t accept it because she had worn the bracelet
She felt her heart was stabbed by something very painful, but the pain came and went quickly
Marcus and her were just in an employer–employee relationship It was normal for the boss not to like things worn by subordinates. How he treated her didn’t really matter She showed a bright smile. Then I thank President Hartley for the generous gift”
As she smiled and used words like “generous gift,” Marcus couldn’t tell if she was serious or joking
Its late, get some rest After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.
Cornelia started to walk back, then remembered something, “President Hartley, don’t forget to take your medicine”
Marcus paused, then gently replied, “Okay”
No matter how she cared for him, she couldn’t deny that she did care him.
Back in her room, Cornelia looked at the bracelet on her wrist, being unsure of what to do with it
As she was struggling with how to handle the gift that didn’t belong to her, Ben sent her a message, ‘Cornelia, what did President Hartley give you?”
Annoyed. Cornelia replied, “He wants to send me to meet God”
Ben, “Rest in peace!”
The next day was the opening ceremony of the 3033 Technology Conference, and Marcus was one of the speakers.
All the other guests had brought their manuscripts, but he didn’t.

But Marcus, standing on stage, was like a shining star, attracting everyone’s attention.
With his every move he showed off the charm of a mature man.
Cornelia had to admit, Marcus indeed had the ability to drive women crazy
But being the woman of such an outstanding man must be tiring
His woman would be the common enemy of all those women who wanted to marry him, and others might even compare their looks and backgrounds.
If their looks and status were a good match, people would praise them as a perfect couple.
If there were some differences in their looks and status, others might say some unpleasant things.
But if he loved his wife enough, what did it matter what others said?
“What are you thinking about?”
Cornelia was so lost in thought that she didnt notice when Marcus finished speaking and returned to her side.
She shook her head and said, 1 wasnt thinking about anything.
Marcus said. “If there’s something bothering you, just tell me. No need to keep it inside.
Cornelia replied, “7 just hope that you and your wife can be together forever, and not let other people’s gossip affect your relationship.”
Marcus smiled and asked, “Do you think I’m the kind of man who would easily change because of other people’s gossip?”
