He told her to go back home so naturally that anyone who didn’t know better would think they were married.
Cornelia declined, “President Hartley, I am sorry for causing you so much trouble 111 just go home”
1 promised a friend I’d take care of you. If you don’t go, are you trying to make me lose my trust with my friends? Marcus didn’t want to force her into anything, but he didn’t feel good about leaving her alone in her rented apartment
She used to be safe living with her friends, but now that people knew she was his wife, some might try to use her against him
She was kidnapped by Eden because he was careless. He wouldn’t allow anything like that to happen again
His firm tone annoyed Cornelia, “I’m an adult, not a child who needs looking after. Didn’t Jeremy think to ask for my opinion before entrusting me to you? How strange is it for a grown man
to entrust his wife to another man?”
It did seem pretty weird, so Marcus relented. Tve had your stuff moved back to Reese Mansion. If you really want to go back to your rented place, I’ll have them send it over*
Thank you. President Hartley!” Cornelia said
“Do you need a lift?” Marcus asked.
“No need to trouble yourself. I have some stuff to take care of before going home.” Cornelia hadn’t forgotten about Eden. She had to make copies of her evidence and send them cut
What do you need to do? Do you need my help?” Marcus asked
She trusted him, so she told him the truth, 1 need to go to the police station to hand over the recording. I want the police to know that Eden has done way more than just what he did to
me
Whatever Eden did, the police will sort it out. He might end up in jail for the rest of his life. You won’t have to fear him anymore, Marcus assured her
Eden’s crimes were enough to get him locked up for life, but Cornelia was worried about the Petersen family stepping in, “He said he had the Petersen family backing him up, and no one would dare touch him.”
“Is that so?” Marcus chuckled before dialing Ayden, “Ayden, if the Petersens are still here, ask them to come in.”
The Petersen family had arrived the night before and didn’t dare leave without seeing Marcus. When they heard Marcus calling for them, they hurried over. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Matt Petersen was even older than Marcus’s father and was a big shot outside, but he had to be deferential in front of Marcus, “Marc, I heard about last night. Eden is my cousin’s son, yes, but he needs to be punished by the law for his outrageous actions”
Matt had waited all night to clarify the Petersen family’s stance. He wanted Marcus to know that Eden’s actions were his alone and had nothing to do with the Petersen family. He hoped Marcus wouldn’t misunderstand the Petersen family because of Eden.
The Hartley family and the Petersen family had been friends for decades. As long as the Petersen family wasn’t involved with Eden, Marcus had no plans to fault them, “Mr. Matt, since you’ve said as much, I’ll leave Eden’s case to the police. We won’t interfere”
Hearing what Marcus said, Matt was finally relieved, and the smile on his face became more sincere. This time, your people were wronged. You decide how to handle it. If there’s anything you need in the future, just let me know.”
“Okay, let’s go slowly.” Marcus didn’t want to waste any words and sent them off. Ryan, who came with Matt, didn’t get to say a word.
In such a situation. Ryan knew it wasn’t the time for personal feelings, so he left with Matt.
