Cornelia said again, "Sure, I'm a bit scared, but I know I've got you, Zack, Abby, Bri and the two grannies by my side. I know there's a bunch of people who care about me and who I care about. I'm not scared anymore. Whatever tricks he's got up his sleeve, he can bring it on. I won't say I'm scared anymore."
Marcus, who had been in a foul mood all night, couldn't help but laugh at her words, "Not scared now?"
Cornelia put her hands on her hips and said confidently, "Well, I mean, I'm still kinda scared, but we can't lose in terms of spirit. Sometimes, just having strong confidence is already half the battle."
Take Marcus for example, he had a really strong presence. Whenever anyone negotiated or did anything with him, just a slight raise of his eyebrows can freak them out. How can they get a good result if they've already lost their confidence?
Marcus said, "Cornelia..."
Cornelia said, "Hmm?"
He said, "Thank you."
For not blaming him. For standing by his side!
Cornelia said, "I should be thanking you too!"
Marcus asked, "What for?"
