Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 437

Chapter 437 

Marcus was just her boss. Looking out for her wasn’t really his duties. Cornelia got that and quickly adjusted her mindset, “Alright.” 

Abigail, an internet junkie, had also seen the news. As soon as she got out of the car, she ran over to Cornelia, “Cornelia, this is big news! Somebody snapped a pic of you with President Hartley and mistook you for his wife.” 

Comelia chuckled, “We already know.” 

Abigail continued, “The views on this news are skyrocketing. In no time, a ton of people will see it. If this keeps up, a lot of people might think you’re really his wife. Isn’t your company’s PR department going to do something about it?” 

Leonardo chimed in from the side, “When have you ever seen any paparazzi shols of Marc? If he doesn’t want people to snap his picture, no one can. Even if they do, it wouldn’t get published, let alone cause such a stir online.” 

Abigail looked confused, “What do you mean?” 

Zack, being a guy, understood Leonardo’s point completely, “President Hartley, are you using Cornelia as a smokescreen? We get that you love your wife and want to protect her from public exposure, but why should Nelly bear the brunt of it all? We want to protect our Nelly too.” 

Comelia quickly pulled Zack aside, “Zack, I’m President Hartley’s assistant, it’s part of my job. Plus, the photo didn’t show my face, who would know it was me?” 

“The internet might not know it’s you, but anyone who knows you could easily recognize you from the back. Zack was getting really worked up, his care and concern for Cornelia made it hard for him to accept how she was being treated. 

Marcus was taken aback. He finally understood why Cornelia looked so troubled. 

His aim was to publicly declare Cornelia’s identity as Mrs. Hartley, but he overlooked the fact that Cornelia herself wasn’t aware of her status. In this case, Cornelia would definitely think he was taking advantage of her, and she would surely be upset. 

Marcus tried to stop Cornelia to explain, but she cut him off, “I’m sorry to have caused you trouble again. But don’t worry, I’ll make sure my friends keep their mouths shut.” 

She didn’t even look at him. After saying her piece, she walked away with Zack to have a private chat. 

Marcus couldn’t hear what they were saying, but he saw Zack’s mood lighten up after Cornelia’s talk and the look he gave Marcus was somewhat triumphant.
