Granny Luisa: "Alright, here we go, you go back."
"Goodbye, grannies!" Cornelia Stewart reluctantly watched the car slowly drive away, not taking her eyes off it for quite a while.
Deep down, Cornelia knew that Granny Rebecca and Granny Luisa were going to Southern Peak not because they wanted to spend Jeremy Artis's money, but because they didn't want to cause her trouble and affect her work.
Not far away, an ordinary business car was parked, with Marcus Hartley sitting inside.
Seeing Cornelia's dispirited look, he lit a cigarette, snuffed it out without taking a puff, pushed the car door open and walked towards her. "Cornelia."
Cornelia was startled by her name being called suddenly. Seeing it was him, she was puzzled but still managed to put on her standard smile. "President Hartley, why are you here? Where do you feel unwell to see a doctor? "
Marcus: "Just passing by. What about you?"
Bumping into her twice in one day while passing by seemed too much of a coincidence, so much so that Cornelia couldn't believe it.
Did he have some purpose for her?
It wasn't that Cornelia thought too highly of herself, but his behavior was indeed suspicious. She decided to be cautious. "I'm also just passing by and getting ready to go home. Goodbye, President Hartley."
As she finished speaking and was about to leave, Marcus stopped her. "I haven't had dinner yet. Let's have dinner together?"
Even inviting her to dinner, President Hartley was really acting strange today. She apologized with a smile, "I'm sorry, President Hartley, but I already have plans with my friends."
