Chapter 125
She just cried, her eyelashes still had teardrops, and her nose was a bit red It made his heart soften
He gently comforted her, and after a while, she gradually fell asleep
Outside the door there was a knock
Marcus was afraid that Cornelia, who had just fallen asleep, would be woken up, so he immediately
covered her ears After confirming that there was no more knocking he withdrew his hand and went to
open the door

“Ben, you’ve been with me for so many years, but it seems like it’s been for nothing “Marcus’s tone was
heavy, but his eyes were gentle “Go back to bed, it has nothing to do with you” Ben had always been

Hearing Marcus say this. Ben finally felt relieved “Alright, I go back to sleep. President Hartley, you’re
the best boss in the world.”
“Get going”
Ben returned to his room with a happy heart
Marcus turned and went downstairs
He made some tea and brought it to Cornelia’s room.
Cornelia was restless in her sleep, and she rolled out of the covers, half of her body hanging off the
bed.
Marcus rushed forward and held her back onto the bed. “Cornelia, wake up, drink the tea first, or you’ll
have a headache tomorrow.”
“Stop it”
She refused to communicate. Marcus had no choice but to feed her the soup bit by bit.

Marcus’s leaned down, inch by inch, close enough that their breaths intertwined, close enough that he
could see nothing but her in his eyes.
Just a little more, a little more, and he could kiss her red lips.
She was his wife, so he could kiss her, but there was a voice in his heart saying no.
He controlled his desire for her, and gently placed a kiss on her forehead.
As soon as he touched her forehead, Cornelia suddenly opened her eyes.
Marcus felt a little embarrassed, like a child caught doing something wrong
She closed her eyes again, murmuring softly. “Abby, am I crazy? How could I dream that President
Hartley wanted to kiss me?”
