Chapter 79

Cornelia had to stay with her grandmother for a while until her condition stabilized enough for her to be

transferred to another hospital.

Marcus granted Cornelia a four–day leave, but it quickly passed, so she had to take her ten–day

annual leave as well.

With Cornelia not at the company, her work fell on Ben’s shoulders.

Ben brought coffee to Marcus office bike usual while Marcus was looking at some documents.

President Hartley, about this morning’s progress.”

Marcus suddenly looked up, scanning the room behind Ben. “Where’s Cornelia?”

There was no obvious change in Marcus‘ expression, but Ben still felt a chill, “Cornelia is on her annual

leave.”

Marcus said, “Taking annual leave during the busiest time of the year?”

Ben didn’t respond.

If he remembered correctly, Marcus didn’t have any important schedules during these days, and the

important work had already been done late last month and early this month.

Marcus said, “The coffee is cold. Go get a new one

Ben answered, “Alright.”

He wondered if Marcus took the wrong pills today.

However, Ben had no idea that not only did Marcus take the wrong pills today, but he would continue to

do so for the next few days.

Every day, he nervously hoped that Cornelia would come back to work soon so that someone else

could share Marcus‘ anger.

After a week of hell, Ben accompanied Marcus to the Capital for Zavier and Skyler’s wedding

anniversary.

Everyone in their circle knew that Zavier was forced to marry Skyler due to someone’s scheming, and

there was no real affection between the couple, but they still had to follow the rules. Zavier and Skyler

appeared very affectionate in front of the guests, exchanging smiles from time to time. Who knew what

they were really thinking?

That was the fate of the children of wealthy families; often, they had no choice.

“Marc, we’ve been waiting for you.” Zavier came over with Skyler and noticed Ben behind Marcus.

“Brought Ben today, huh? Didn’t bring your pretty little assistant? Afraid someone might steal her

away?”

Marcus didn’t want anyone making jokes about Cornelia, “Mind your own wife and don’t worry about

others.”

“Hello!” Ben politely greeted them, but had a small question in his mind.

He had been with Marcus for many years and had met all of his old friends, but he didn’t remember any

of them meeting Cornelia. How did they know about her?

Meanwhile, Cornelia was celebrating her birthday at the hospital. On December 14th, she turned 24.

These days, Cornelia was busy taking care of her grandmother and contacting the Riverton hospital, so

she had completely forgotten about her birthday.

Her grandmother secretly asked Dr. Lopez to order a birthday cake and flowers for her.

Her grandmother patted Cornelia on the head with a smile, “Nelly, you’re another year older today.

Make a wish.”
