Chapter 662
“The Reese Group?” Marcus said nonchalantly, twirling his wine glass with his elegant and attractive fingers. A little Reese Group is no match for me. I could make them go bankrupt as easily as squashing an ant, if I felt like it”
Marcus was indeed capable of doing so, Cornelia knew that. But she was still a bit worried. “We should be careful Direct attacks are easy to handle, but covert ones are hard to predict‘
Marcus interrupted, ‘Let’s not talk about unpleasant things. Just enjoy your meal”
Comelia lowered her head and focused on her food. She was so nervous that she drank a few more glasses of wine.
After dinner, it was dark outside, but the lights were bright. Marcus said, “I heard from Shawn that there’s a famous band playing here tonight Wanna go check it out?”

Stepping out of the glass house, a cold wind blew. Cornelia shivered, but immediately took off her jacket and draped it over Marcus, “You just recovered, you should be more afraid of the cold than me Wear this.”
Marcus smiled. I’m not cold”
“Your hand is so cold” Cornelia pulled him back into the glass house, rubbing and kneading his hand.
Even after a while, his hand was still cold. Without much thought, Cornelia pressed his hand against her warm face, “This might help.”
