"You actually showed up!" The man looked at Marcus, his eyes filled with provocation and disdain. "You're sticking your nose in everything, now you're going to interfere with the girls I like,?"
Marcus, behind his silver glasses, let out a deep chill in his gaze, "Buzz off!"
"Fine, if you want me to leave, I'll leave!" The man promptly got up and took a few steps out, but then turned his head to look back at Cornelia, "Beautiful lady, you're quite the looker, but why such poor taste?
“Let me tell you, don't just judge a book by its cover, look at their character too. Some people may seem great on the surface, but who knows what they're hiding deep inside."
It was clear to Cornelia that these two knew each other and didn't get along. At such a moment, how could she let her husband be bullied? "People always say women are gossips, but how come you're even worse?
“I'm with my husband all the time, I know him better than you do, do I need reminders from you? Whatever you're up to, you're bound to fail. Now please take a hike and stop showing up in front of us."
The man's face darkened, and before leaving, he left a parting shot, "Truth always pisses people off."
After the man left, Cornelia immediately threw herself into Marcus' arms, rubbing against him, "I was just about to call you and you showed up. Do we have some psychic connection?"
Marcus' anger evaporated at her gesture. He reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist, "What did he say to you?"
Cornelia looked up and winked at him playfully, "You want to know?"
Marcus, "Yes."
