Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 450

He was trying to shake off this mess now, but he bet it was not gonna be a piece of cake.

The more Devon thought about it, the more he freaked out. He was breaking out in a cold sweat.

Marcus turned around, totally unaware that Cornelia was standing right behind him. She was watching everything in the office like a bystander.

Marcus was taken aback, but his intimidating aura instantly faded. He even had his voice softened, "Cornelia, how long have you been here?"

Cornelia didn't answer his question. She just smiled and said, "President Hartley, Robert from Skyline Co. has to leave the country for some business. He was originally planning to sign the contract with you at ten today, but now he wants to move it up by an hour. Seeing as you don't have anything else going on before ten, I went ahead and said yes."

Cornelia looked relaxed, with a professional smile on her face. Marcus couldn't tell what she was thinking, which made him even more worried, "Cornelia."

Cornelia smiled and said, "President Hartley, Robert's team is already waiting in the conference room downstairs. We should hurry over. Any later might be seen as rude."

"Alright. Come to my office first." Marcus headed towards his office, with Cornelia following closely behind.

Once they were in the office, he suddenly turned to her and said, "Cornelia, trust me. I've never taken advantage of you or thought about hurting you. Those who slander you in the office, I won't let any of them off."

"President Hartley, I've let go of the whole photo incident." Cornelia had never heard Marcus talk so much at once, and all for her protection.

She remembered when she first started working for him, he had defended her when partners insulted her. It was then that he told her that she had the entire Hartley Group backing her up.

It was because of what he said that she had been working by his side for a year, never slacking off, "Thank you so much! Thank you for protecting my reputation!"
