Natalia's eyes lit up when she heard that, "Cornelia, you're such a good person."
Cornelia nodded, "Sure."
Natalia leaned in closer to Cornelia, "Cornelia, could you help me win over Marcus?"
Before Cornelia could respond, she went on, "If you help me snag Marcus, I'll make sure he gives you a raise. I'll be forever grateful."
Cornelia couldn't help but almost laugh, "I can't help you."
Cornelia had only been working with Marcus for a year, and there had been plenty of people asking her for favors. Natalia wasn't the first, and Cornelia was sure she wouldn't be the last.
People had previously promised houses, cars, and money if she could help them out. But this was the first time someone like Natalia had asked for help without promising anything in return.
Briana hastily told Natalia to stop, "Natalia, don't just blabber on."
Natalia brushed her off, "I'm serious, I really like Marcus. I want to marry him and be his wife. Only by marrying him could I be truly happy."
Only by marrying Marcus would her mother be satisfied, and she could escape from Cameron's control. She could shake off the identity of being the Reese family's daughter and just be herself.
