Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 35

"President Hartley, sorry! I went too far just now, I'll be more careful in the future." Cornelia apologized, and quickly walked past Marcus with her head down.

On the way back to the hotel, Cornelia thought deeply.

As her contact with Marcus increased, she found that he was different from the rumors. She believed that he was a good person, so she became bolder in front of him and lost some sense of propriety. She needed to be more careful in the future.

Marcus extinguished his cigarette and trailed after Cornelia, quietly observing as she made her way back to the hotel, ensuring her safe arrival from the roadside.

Dr. Dawson suddenly appeared, "Marc, Ayden has answered Courtney according to your instructions. She shouldn't bother Cornelia anymore."

Marcus nodded.

Dr. Dawson continued, "Helena also said that the reason why Courtney has been so active recently is because Briana and the Miss Reese are about to graduate and return to the country, and she wants to clear the obstacles for Miss Reese in advance."

Marcus lit a cigarette and smiled, "She doesn't have to make decisions for me."

"After all, she's your mother. Doing this will affect your reputation." Dr. Dawson had watched Marcus grow up, and she knew that his relationship with his parents was not good, even incompatible.

Back then, he personally pulled his father down from the high position and reorganized the Hartley Group, and the outside world rumored that he was ruthless and decisive, regardless of family affection.

"Reputation?" Marcus never cared about his own reputation. As long as he cared, he could find a way to change public opinion.

Dr. Dawson looked at him hesitantly and finally decided to ask the question in her heart, "Marc, do you have special feelings for Cornelia by protecting her like this?"

Marcus raised an eyebrow, "Do you think I would let anyone bully you and Ayden?"

Marcus didn't answer directly, but Dr. Dawson understood his meaning. Cornelia was the same as her and Ayden in his heart, both were people he cared about.

So, no one could bully her.

The next day, Cornelia went back to her work life.

While she hadn't been gallivanting alongside Marcus during this period, Cornelia had not fallen behind in her duties. As his assistant, she efficiently accomplished all the assigned tasks, swiftly matching Marcus's work pace.

About half a month later, the scenic spot officially opened.

After the ribbon cutting, everyone returned to Riverton.

This time they took Marcus's private plane, which saved a few hours of transfer time, and it was still daylight when they arrived in Riverton.

Cornelia had just picked up her luggage when Zack called, "Nelly, Abby and I are coming to pick you up at the airport. We'll be there in a few minutes. Come out of the VIP exit and wait for us."

"Okay, see you later." Cornelia smiled and hung up the phone, turning to see Marcus looking at her.

He glanced at her and then walked ahead.

Cornelia and Ben each pushed two large suitcases behind him.

The car to pick up Marcus was already waiting at the exit. Marcus got in directly, and Cornelia and Ben still needed to load his luggage.

Since neither of them wanted to sit next to Marcus, Ben quickly occupied the co-pilot's seat after putting the luggage away.

Cornelia walked towards the back seat of the car, and Marcus saw her coming and made room for her. But Cornelia smiled and said, "Mr. Marcus, I won't go back with you. Someone is coming to pick me up."
