Chapter 362
He knew Marcus was in a funk lately, but there didn’t seem to be anything physically wrong with him.
Dr. Dawson couldnt spill the beans that Marcus had asked him to check up on Cornelia He said, “Just a routine check–up. Ilgo And President Hartley first, you keep on truckin‘ Ben replied. “President Hartley is in the loo You’ll have to hang light for a bl
Dr. Dawson responded, “Alright”
Comelia walked into the bathroom She looked in the mirror and saw that her nose was swollen and as red as a beet It looked pretty gnarly
The bump initially only made her nose a bit red. How did it swell up so fast?
If she showed up looking like this for Marcus‘ chent meeting, it would definitely taint the Hartley Group’s image, something Marcus wouldn’t stand for.
She needed to stop the bleeding and figure out a way to reduce the swelling ASAP She couldn’t afford to drop the ball now.
Corela bent down to wash her nose but the bleeding wouldn’t stop No matter how much she tried to clean it, it still looked pretty gruesome
With no other option, Cornelia resorted to an old trick from her childhood. She rolled up two tissues and shoved them up her nostrils to stop the bleeding.
Suddenly, the bathroom door was flung open, scaring her so much that she smeared blood on her face. She looked like a mess, but there was something kind of adorable about it.
Then a tall figure appeared before her
President Hartley, what are you doing barging into the ladies‘ room?”
Marcus looked serious and didn’t utter a word. Heyanked her by the arm and led her out, his other hand holding his phone, dialing a number, ‘Are you there yet?”
Dr. Dawson replied, Tm here Waiting for you in your office.
Marcus hung up the phone and dragged Cornelia to his office. He firmly planted her on the couch, and ordered Dr Dawson, “Stop her bleeding now! If she dies, you’re toast too.” Cornelia thought to herself, what a hard luck, he actually just jinxed her to die! It’s been so long since their last argument and he was still holding a grudge As the head honcho of the Hartley Group, how could he be so spiteful!
Dr. Dawson instantly attended to Corneha’s bleeding nose, “It’s just a swollen nose that’s bleeding a bit, she won’t die”
“Why dont you give yourself a nose bump and see how it feels?” Marcus retorted angrily, as if he was about to blow a fuse.
Dr. Dawson was at a loss for words
