Zavier suddenly got serious and said, "I'm trying to make a baby with her lately. Maybe having a kid will make things easier."
Marcus asked, "A kid?"
He hadn't really thought that far ahead, let alone thought about having children. It wasn't because his parents left him a big trauma, he just didn't want to be like them - having kids but not being able to take care of them.
But if it's with Cornelia, he thinks it's okay.
Zavier said, "You can use the child to maintain the relationship between you and her."
Marcus replied, "First, she's an independent person, and second, she's my wife, not an object. I will respect and love her, and I'll never force her to do anything she doesn't want to."
"I hope you stick to your word and don't go back on what you said today," Zavier said, immediately turning around. "Skyler, come with me. I have something to say to you."
He easily took her away.
In the large hot spring pool, only Cornelia and Marcus were left. Cornelia was wearing a conservative swimsuit, but compared to her work clothes, she still felt like she was laying it all out there in front of Marcus.
Especially since Marcus was only wearing swim trunks and showing off his nice and toned upper body.
Cornelia didn't want to be alone with him for even a second, so she got up to leave. "President Hartley, I'm done, and I’ll see you around.”
Marcus took out a tablet from the side table. "Come and take a look at this contract."
As soon as work was mentioned, even in a hot spring pool, Cornelia immediately pulled out her professional spirit.
She moved closer to Marcus, completely ignoring their attire.
Cornelia took the tablet and sat next to Marcus, carefully checking every word. She soon discovered a major mistake.
