Chapter 457
Briana said, “Natalia, my brother is already hitched”
Natalia interrupted her, her voice shaking with emotion, “She just hit the jackpot, got picked by your Granny to marry Marc. But Marc doesn’t love her one bit.” Briana said, “You’re not Marcus, how do you know whether he loves his wife or not?”
Natalia said. “The other night you told me, you said Marc and his wife haven’t done the deed yet. If a man doesn’t want to sleep with a woman, there’s only one reason he doesn’t love her.”
Briana said, “You actually bought my baloney?”
Natalia couldn’t care less about whether it was baloney or not, “That woman can’t even get Marc interested Marc doesn’t want to sleep with her, and you’re still against me marrying Mare Do you want the Hartley family to die out or something?”
“Natalia, please stop Marcus really cares about his wife, it’s just Briana was getting desperate. She should have never drank with Natalia. She spilled everything when she was drunk, just like a fool.
Natalia asked, “What?”
Briana said, “Just keep your mouth shut.”
Marcus’s wife was still around. She couldn’t just blurt things out. If she found out, she might want to divorce Marcus. And if Marcus found out it was her who spilled the beans, he was gonna blame her for sure.
Natalia said, “Briana, there’s no love between Marc and his wife They’re not gonna be happy. Let Marc break free from this dull marriage and accept a woman who truly loves him. Not only would I be satisfied, it would be good for Marc too.”
Briana said with certainty, “Marc values his marriage a lot. He’s never thought about betraying it, and he likes his wife.”
Yes, he did like his wife. Marc was much nicer to his wife than to her.
Natalia said. “He likes her but keeps his distance? Who’d believe that? Cornelia, do you?”
This was between Marcus and his wife. Cornelia shouldn’t voice her opinion and remained silent.
Fearing that Cornelia might get the wrong impression if she found out the truth, Briana quickly said, “Marc doesn’t keep his distance from his wife. He wants to get close but he can’t Marcus may have some sort of illness.”
“Huh?” Cornelia choked on her tea
President Hartley had some sort of illness! Was this secret something she as an assistant should know? She didn’t want to hear it. She was afraid of being blamed by Marcus
“Briana, should I step out so you two can chat?” The more she knew, the more risk of being blamed by Marcus. So Cornelia wanted to leave.
“Cornelia, you can’t leave.” Before she could finish, Briana couldn’t let Cornelia leave, “Im all for Marc and his wife. I won’t allow Natalia to mess with their marriage.”
Cornelia tugged at Briana’s hand, but couldn’t pull away. She helplessly said, “Bri, it’s no use talking to me about this. You should talk to Marcus’s wife.”
Briana holding onto Cornelia tightly said, “I don’t care, I just want you to trust me!”
