"President Hartley, what about your safety?" For the first time, Ayden questioned Marcus's job arrangements for him, not for himself, but out of concern for Marcus.
Marcus, "I make decisions. Do I need to explain them to you?"
Ayden wanted to say something else, but all he managed was a "yes", because he knew he couldn't change anything Marcus had decided.
Perhaps sensing Ayden's reluctance, Marcus added, "If she gets hurt again, you know what the consequences will be."
Ayden, "I understand."
He was Marcus's subordinate, but Marcus had always been polite to him. This was the first time he had been so harsh.
At that moment, Ayden seemed to understand Dr. Dawson's concern from the night before.
He had been by Marcus's side for many years, dealing with many troubles and dangers for Marcus, and now he was being sent to protect Cornelia.
Cornelia was just a little assistant, Marcus's enemies would definitely not be interested in her, there was absolutely no need to send him to protect her.
Ayden didn't understand, but he had to accept the order, "I'll go and arrange your security work first."
Marcus, "No need, I already have arrangements."
