Chapter 600
Marcus said coolly, “Isn’t it an honor for her to pick on you?”
Was this something a normal person would say
Leonardo felt as if he could hear his heart shattering
He waved his hand, pretending to cry as he covered his eyes, “Marc, you really don’t love me anymore. Ever since Cornelia first showed up, you’ve been giving me the cold shoulder, you heartless jerk! Cornelia, give me back my Marc…
His melodramatic act made Cornella frown, “Mr. Wilson, can you not be so dramatic as a man?”
Yes, he was being dramatic
Cornelia shook off her goosebumps, “There are a lot of people here, if others see you like this, it’ll spread. Do you ever want to get a girlfriend again?”
That brought Leonardo back to reality If he was shunned by all women for joking with Marcus, that would be a major loss.
He cleared his throat, regaining his normal tone, “Ryan, you haven’t met Marc’s assistant yet, let me introduce you.”
“No need. I’m quite familiar with Cornelia.” Ryan extended his hand to Cornelia with a smile, “Ms. Stewart, didn’t expect to run into you here. How’s your relationship with your husband now?”
Cornelia shook his hand. “Thanks for your concern, Mr. Ryan. My husband and I are doing alright”
Leonardo, “Wait, when did you two meet? Why don’t I know?”
Ryan, “Cornelia’s husband hired me to handle their divorce proceedings. I’ve known Cornelia since a year ago.”
Ryan didn’t know that Cornelia was aware of Marcus‘ true identity. He glanced at Marcus and asked deliberately, “Cornelia, you’re not considering a divorce anymore?”
Leonardo, “Cornelia, if your husband wants a divorce, you should do it quickly and then come to me, I’ll take good care of you.”
Leonardo felt that if it weren’t for his bad luck, if he had met Cornelia at the right time, he could have won her heart before her current boyfriend did. With his background and appearance, he believed he could have easily won Cornelia over.
Marcus. “You think Cornelia would set her sights on you after a divorce?”
His voice remained low with no change in tone, and no emotions were detectable. His gaze appeared normal, as if he was casually making a statement without any other
intention
Leonardo, “What? Marc, what did you say?”
Ryan burst into laughter, “Leo, don’t ask anymore, just pretend you didn’t hear clearly. If you insist on figuring it out, the blow might be harder.”
Leonardo knew his appearance couldn’t compare to Marcus, who was one in a thousand.
In Marcus‘ eyes, he was just a pebble. That hit was fatal for the narcissistic Leonardo, “Ryan, Cornelia, do you guys agree with Marc?”
