The boss, who never meddles with his employees private affairs, suddenly showed interest in Ben’s. Ben smelled a rat, President Hartley. I’m a bachelor 1 like being single ” 

Marcus stared at Ben, as if he was ready to rip him apart if he said the wrong thing, Why do you want to stay single?” 

Afraid to touch a nerve. Ben didn’t dare to tell the truth, President Hartley, I’m okay at work, but my personal life is a hot mess, I don’t want to drag a good girl into it.” 

Marcus gave a cold snort. You better not have any other ideas.”

Ben quickly clarified, terrified, President Hartley, I have no other ideas, I wouldn’t dare” 

You better notMarcus suddenly changed the subject. Cornelia is married.” 

1 know Of course Ben knew Cornelia was married, but what did that have to do with him

Marcus’s sharp gaze swept over him again, and Ben felt like the end was near 

Luckily, a light bulb went off in Ben’s head, and he realized this might have something to do with Cornelia

President Hartley may be worried that he would make a move on a married woman, which would tarnish the Hartley Group’s reputation, so he wanted to warn him
