Chapter 327
Comelia said coolly “fm planning to spend my life with Jeremy but who knows what the future holds What if I’m still not back home, and Jeremy falls for some other gint Maybe it was the slew of past disappointments, but Cornelia always kept a backup plan, to no matter how things went with Jeremy she could keep foing life on her terms
“He wont fall for another woman. He’ll be forever loyal to your mamage, please trust him” His voice was deep pleasant, and dead serous. It felt like he was the one making the promise to her
Cornelia didnt understand why Marcus insisted on making these promises for Jeremy–Jeremy himself probably wasn’t as sure “President Hartley, I’ve told you before you’re not him. Whatever you say on his behalf doesn’t count”
Marcus responded “Every word a counts
Cornelia didnt want to debate this anymore, so she took the dough that Marcus had kneaded
Marcus knew that his words hadnt convinced Cornelia, and she didn’t want to talk about it anymore if he persisted the clever girl would surely see through him, so he had no choice but to continue to make bread with her “Cani give it a try?
“Of course” Comelia handed him another piece of dough.
“You’re not much older than my sister She cant do a thing and always has me worrying about her. Unlike you you are to young and skilled” Marcus praised Cornelia, while managing to take a jab at Hrana
“B is not as bad as you make her out to be She’s a smart and selfless girl”
Cornelia noticed that Marcus face was smeared with some flour He looked incredibly funny and adorabile. A stark contrast to his usual stern demeanor in the business world
Cornelia found it amusing and asked, “President Hartley, do you want to take a fork in the mirror?”
Marcus lifted his head his eyes barely open. “Comelia, it seems I get some flour on my eyelashes and cant open my eyes, could you help me clean it off?”
Without a second thought, Cornelia got a wet wipe and gently wiped the flour off his eyelashes
