Chapter 713
After a while, Ben received a response from Cornelia, “Ben, is there something urgent? If it’s not that important, can we chat tomorrow? I’m with my husband right now, we have some stuff to deal with.”
Seeing Cornelia’s reply, Ben was utterly gobsmacked.
This woman was messing around with the boss at work, and then with her husband after work.
She was absolutely shameless! Weren’t they scared of being caught?
Or perhaps they just didn’t give a damn about being discovered!
They just wanted to flaunt their illicit relationship, letting everyone know about it, then openly be together, replacing their original partners and achieving their goals.
Ben started to let his imagination run wild.
Just as Cornelia replied to Ben’s message, she received another one from Taylor.
“Cornelia, our news is topping the trending lists again. Looks like it’s going to cause a huge stir. Mr. Hartley sure is a big shot, even though he never shows his face in public, the smallest thing about him can cause a major reaction.”
Even though she couldn’t hear Taylor’s voice, from her words, Cornelia could feel her excitement – she was about to rake in a hefty sum.
However, Cornelia wasn’t in the mood to chat at the moment, she replied coldly, “Mm, I’ve got some stuff to sort out, I won’t chat now.”
Taylor, “What’s up? Did Mr. Hartley find out that you leaked the photo and is giving you trouble?”
Cornelia, “He won’t bother me with this. Don’t worry.”
Taylor, “You seem down, did something happen? If you trust me, you can talk to me about it, and see if I can help you out.”
Cornelia, “It’s alright. I’ve got to get going.”
Marcus‘ matter was indeed going to cause a huge stir!
Once inside the air–conditioned room, the indoor temperature was comfortable, but Marcus‘ symptoms didn’t improve, his skin exposed outside his clothes was bright red, just like a cooked shrimp.
She suggested calling Dr. Lester over, but he disagreed.
He was now taking a bath, and she was waiting for him outside the bathroom, but he didn’t come out for a long time.
Chapter 713
Worried that something might happen to him, Cornelia went over and knocked on the door, “Mr. Hartley……”
Marcus‘ deep voice mixed with the sound of running water reached Cornelia’s ears, “I’m okay, you go back to your room, no need to wait for me here.”
Cornelia was still worried, “Are you, are you really okay?”
Marcus, “As long as you shut up, I’ll be fine.”
