Chapter 268
“You think I give a damn about this chump change? Marcus was ticked off by her words. Then, something else stirred him up even more. When she raised her hand, he saw blood on her palm She must’ve scratched herself in her heated state
He quickly grabbed her hand, “What’s wrong?”
Cornelia didn’t feel any pain She was so flustered she tried to pull her hand back. Im fine*
“Say you’re fine one more time. I dam you” Marcus held her hand tight, his voice stern, ‘First, were getting Dr. Dawson to look at your wound, then you can talk with Justin”
Cornelia wanted to protest, but seeing his grim expression, she held her tongue and obeyed.
Marcus arranged for Cornelia and Justin’s conversation to take place in a greenhouse located in the garden, where he thought the warm atmosphere would make Cornelia comfortable
He didn’t accompany them was just Comelia and Justin in the greenhouse But he had a clear view of their every move from outside
Boana walked up to Marcus “Bro, how can you just let Cornelia be with Justin like that? He’s obviously bad news What if he hurts Comella?”
“Shes mine. He wouldn’t dare lay a finger on her Marcus turned to glance at Briana, feeling touched by his little sister’s concern for Cornelia
Suddenly, he had a brilliant idea to keep Cornelia around, “If you’re so fond of Camelia, why don’t you find a way to make her stay?”
Briana replied, “I wish she could stay too. But she wants to go home I can’t think of any reason to keep her here. Plus, this is your private space, and you’re very territorial. If I decide to keep Cornelia here and you ge pissed and kick us out, it would be really awkward”
Marcus replied “Im cool with you two staying Stay as long as you want”
“Realty Briana thought she had misheard. “Bro, say it again”
Hed repeat it as many times as it took to keep Comelia here. Im cool with you and Cornelia staying Stay as long as you want.” He said
“Why are you suddenly being so chill?” Briana excitedly sprang to Marcus, giving him a big hug. “I get it, you finally realized you haven’t been giving me enough attention these past few years and you’re trying to make up for it Marcus, I love you! You’re the best!”
