Chapter 548 

Dr. Dawson couldn’t even finish her sentence before she got shut out of the room

Marcus looked at Cornelia with concern, Don’t take to heart what others say ” 

I won’tAs Cornelia helped Marcus onto the hospital bed, she said, “Mr Hartley you lie down first. I’ll get the doctor to change your IV” 

Marcus, Alright” 

Cornelia immediately called a doctor from the hospital. The doctor had several instructions to share with Cornelia, but a single look from Marcus made the doctor calm down And after the doctor administered the medication he quietly left the room

As soon as the doctor left, Marcus said to Cornelia, Sit down, I’ve got something to discuss with you.” 

He asked her to sit, and even though she was not entirely comfortable with him, Cornelia obediently took a seat, Mr. Hartley, what is it?” 

Seeing her regain her composure, Marcus felt a little relieved, Cornelia, I don’t know what mess you’re in But whatever it is, you can tell me.” 

Cornelia mustered the courage to look at him. He seemed so heartless, but the eyes behind those silver glasses always gave off a warm illusion

She could see his genuine concern for her in his eyes, and none of it seemed fake

He still appeared to be the Marcus she knew a gentleman with impeccable manners when silent, and a powerful leader of the Hartley Group when speaking. 

He hadn’t changed, what changed was how she felt about him

Before she could figure out how to deal with their complicated relationship, Cornelia decided not to touch on it, and wait until she had a clear mind to deal with it

Marcus was very patient. You can’t tell me? Is that so?” 

Cornelia nodded 

Marcus smiled, That’s okay, let me know when you’re ready. For now, I’ll have the doctor take you for a full body checkup.” 

Cornelia refused, “I just felt a little unwell earlier, I’m fine now, no need for a checkup” 

Marcus was not convinced, “It won’t take long.” 

Cornelia, Mr. Hartley, why are you so kind to me? Don’t you think your kindness to me has surpassed what a superior should show to an employee? Even Dr. Dawson feels it’s too much.” 

Marcus, Because” 

Cornelia interrupted him, I know you’ll say it’s because of Jeremy But you’re you and he’s him. You guys will never be the same person. You should take care of your own wife, not your friend’s wife.” 

Marcus, Cornelia, actually I am” 

He didn’t want to hide his identity anymore. He wanted to openly care for her, as her husband. But Cornelia didn’t give him the chance. She cut him off, sensing where he was going with it, Mr. Hartley, it’s late, I should go.” 

Alright. This time, Marcus didn’t try to keep her. He didn’t dare to

He watched helplessly as Cornelia walked out, watched as she disappeared from his sight. He closed his eyes, unable to suppress the pain, and sank back into the endless 

darkness
