Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 301

Cornelia bobbed her head respectfully, "Yeah, I'll do the handover after dinner."

Marcus hadn't seen Cornelia in a while. He wanted to chat more with her, but every time Cornelia talked to him, she seemed very humble, making it a bit hard for him to start a conversation.

Marcus pondered for a moment, then said, "Your French is not that great, if you run into trouble at work, remember to give me a shout."

"Sure thing." Despite Cornelia's French being a bit shaky, she was handling her work pretty well.

Marcus added, "New Year's is coming up fast, we might not be able to go home for it, you need to brace yourself."

Cornelia replied, "President Hartley, no need to worry about me. Before taking this job, I prepared myself for everything."

While they were talking, Ben was just standing there, silently watching and listening.

Lately, Ben had been feeling like a third wheel around Marcus and Cornelia. He couldn't get a word in edgewise in their conversations.

He had been with Marcus for over a decade, and Cornelia hadn't even been with Marcus for a year, and he couldn't understand why Marcus seemed to favor Cornelia more.

Ben felt that this couldn't go on, or else Cornelia might take his place in Marcus's heart, and he would become insignificant to Marcus.

To change this, Ben decided to join their conversation, but their topics had absolutely nothing to do with work, so he couldn't get his two cents in.

So, he decided to steer the conversation towards work, "President Hartley, the selection for the new factory site is done, we've picked three potential locations, after dinner, we can go check them out together."

Marcus responded coldly, "Let's just focus on dinner right now, no shop talk."

Ben was puzzled, they were always too busy with work to have meals before. During peak work periods, they would even grab a quick bite in the middle of work.
