Chapter 15

Ben’s words echoed in Cornelia’s mind…

She used to think that Marcus, like others, had doubted her private life, so when she went to him, he was so ruthless.

She believed he gave her the opportunity to scrutinize and clear the facts out of pity as her superior.

She dared not imagine that Marcus had believed in her innocence from the beginning, and he asked her to find evidence to fight back against the rumors…

Back then, only her grandma, Zack, and Abby trusted her unconditionally.

Marcus, the leader of a top corporation, an awe–inspiring figure, had worked with her for a month and three days, yet he trusted her as much as those closest to her, unconditionally.

Because of this, Cornelia decided that even without a high salary, she would remain loyal to Marcus and become his most capable subordinate.

Back at the table, Marcus was drinking soup, and Cornelia was quietly watching him…

If temperament was an art, no one could compare to her President Hartley. Even drinking soup, he looked so elegant and noble, like a beautiful world–renowned painting.

Marcus felt her gaze, “What are you looking at?”

Cornelia showed a flattering smile, sincerely complimenting him, I just think President Hartley is the best boss in the world.”

Ben gently nudged her, reminding her that President Hartley only valued his subordinates‘ abilities and didn’t accept brown–nosing. Marcus didn’t react much to her words, coldly saying, “talk less at the dinner table.”

Cornelia nodded, “Okay.”
