Chapter 735
Before Cornelia could spit out all her words, Marcus was quick to seal her lips with his, not wanting to hear what he didn’t want to hear.
“It’s not that I don’t trust you. I’m just blinded by jealousy.” Worried that more words would lead to more mistakes, Marcus didn’t say any more. He took the clothes from Cornelia’s hands and quickly put it on.
The shirt was also a white one. It was a bit big and long for Cornelia, but when he put it on, it fit perfectly, as if it was tailor–made for him.
Cornelia didn’t bother with him, and took his white shirt to wash, leaving Marcus alone in her
room.
This was the first time Marcus had been in Cornelia’s room, and it was much smaller than he had imagined.
The room only had a small bed, a row of cupboards, and a desk. After these things were placed, there wasn’t much space left in the room.
However, the room was very clean and tidy, giving a warm and comfortable feeling.
There was also a diffuser by the window, sending out a faint aroma that made people feel
comfortable and relaxed.
There was a cushion and a small table on the windowsill, with a tablet on it. Next to the tablet was a notebook, with a large smiley face on the cover and text encouraging herself to work hard and make money, aiming to retire early.

He immediately put on a hurt expression, “You didn’t say I couldn’t watch.”
Cornelia, “Where’s the domineering you just now?”
He dared to play the victim here, she wouldn’t be fooled by his act. Cornelia really held a grudge.

“Alright, you can change into your clothes now.”
Marcus, “I think this shirt of yours is pretty good. Leave my shirt here, it’ll be convenient for me to wear when I come next time.”
Cornelia, “There won’t be a next time.”
Although she said this, she was already thinking about preparing some clothes for him at
home.
After putting Marcus‘ clothes into the wardrobe, Cornelia was ready to go out to help, “Are you going to stay in the room, or go to the living room?”
Marcus, “Is there anything I can help with?”
