Chapter 370 

Cornelia was trying to sneak out, but Marcus wasn’t having it “Remember when Courtney was being a total jerk to you? Don’t you wanna get back at her?” 

Cornela sure did But no matter what issues there were between Courtney and her son, they were still family And Cornelia was just an outsider. As long as she had a shred of sanity, she wouldn’t blurt out. Tm gonna get back at your mem 

Marcus asked, “Not gonna say anything?” 

Cornelia replied. “What do you want me to say?” 

” 

Marcus glanced at her swollen nose. Does your nose still hurt? 

Cornelia didn’t expect that question, and after a moment of surprise, she quickly shook her head, “No, it doesn’t hurt anymore 

Marcus continued, “If you really cant stand being in the same space as Courtney, you can go about your business once she apologizes to you” 

Cornelia didn’t believe that the arrogant Courtney would apologize to her, a lowly assistant. However, she didn’t want to put Marcus in a difficult position, “President Hartley, Ive forgotten about that incident. There’s no need for an apology” 

Marcus said. “You might have forgotten, but she hasn’t ” 

“Courtney “Courtney arrived, calling out Marcus name but her gaze landed on Cornelia. She also noticed Cornelia’s swollen nose, “Oh my. Cornelia, what happened to your nose? Does it hurt? Do you need a doctor? Marc, have you had a doctor check on her?” 

Since Courtney wanted to play this game, Cornelia would play along. “Thank you for your concern, Mrs Hartley! A doctor has checked on me I’m fine” 

Thats good Courtney rushed towards Cornelia, acting like a concerned elder, “Cornelia, there was a misunderstanding last time. I’m formally apologizing to you. Can you forgive me?” 

Cornelia silently backed away, not wanting any physical contact with Courtney 

She didn’t expect Courtney to apologize upon entering Was this prearranged by Marcus or did he guess that Courtney would do this? Regardless of why Courtney apologized, it made Cornelia feel like she was complex. This was what they called a smart person 

She instinctively looked at Marcus, who was also staring at her. He smiled, “Tell Ben to tidy up the screening room, we’ll be watching TV there later. You go get ready. I’ll be there soon 

“Okay “Upon receiving the command, Cornelia turned to leave, not wanting to lay her eyes on Courtney anymore. 

Not until Cornelia left, did Courtney turn her gaze back to Marcus When she saw the apron he was wearing, she couldn’t hide her surprise and confusion 

She reproached, “Marcus, you used to guard your screening room like a treasure, no one could enter without your permission, and now you’re letting her dine there You used to hate the smell of cooking, no one was allowed to cook at home, and now you’re cooking. You haven’t even been with her for a year, and you’ve made so many changes for her. Aren’t you afraid she’ll become more and more demanding, maybe even disrespectful to you?” 

“As long as she wants to, I’ll let her, and I can even give in for her” The warmth in Marcus‘ eyes was gone, and when he looked at Courtney, his gaze was icy cold again, “And she’s not an outsider, she’s my lawful wife. Her name is Cornelia!” 

Courtney was stung by Marcus words, but she couldn’t show it, ‘Marcus, I didn’t know she was your wife, that’s why I had someone talk to her. If I’d known she was your wife, I wouldn’t have done that.” 

Years had passed, and she was still the same old fibber
