Chapter 992
"Thanks!" Cornelia said.
After the flight attendant left, Cornelia casually popped open a bottle of mineral water, took a sip, then pulled out a magazine to read. Suddenly, the sleeping woman removed the hat shadowing her face and looked at Cornelia. "Mrs. Hartley, what a coincidence!
We meet again.
Cornelia asked, "Ms. Sallie, you're on this flight too?"
That was so freakin’ uncanny! Not only did they bump into each other at the airport, but they were also on the same flight to the same city!
Even their seats were together.
Sallie might have purposefully boarded the same flight, Cornelia couldn't help but think, maybe she wanted to say something to her.
Cornelia was filled with doubts, while Sallie seemed quite chill,
simply responding, "Yep."
Cornelia just acknowledged and didn't actively make conversation.
If the other party approached her with a purpose, they would naturally speak to her again.
Sallie said, "Cornelia, you seem to be a bit hostile towards me. Have I offended you in some way?"
Cornelia fell silent.
Such directness was a bit hard to handle. But since the other party had spoken so frankly, Cornelia didn't need to hide her feelings anymore.
Sallie continued, "I admit I once had a crush on your husband, even dreamed of marrying him, but I'm well aware he only sees me as a friend. He firmly rejected me long ago, and there was never any ambiguity between us. He didn't even give me a chance to fantasize. He's a good man, a man worth your love..."
Cornelia knew this better than anyone, "I know what kind of man he is."
Cornelia wasn't even sure why she had become so sensitive. She knew clearly what kind of person he was, but seeing other women approaching Marcus made her upset. She even had the scary thought of hiding Marcus, not allowing anyone to approach him.
She didn't know how she had become so terrifying!
