She really couldn’t figure out why, but she always gol mistaken for Marcus’s wife it had been a laughable mix up before, but this time the confusion could put her life in danger

This was no joke How could she let people mistake her identity like this?

“Why would he be so concerned about you if you’re not his wife? Who are you trying to fool?” Hayden Ruff didn’t get to finish his sentence before he felt a sharp pain in his back and passed out, collapsing to the ground

Despite his unconscious state his arm remained tightly wrapped around Comelia’s neck, leaving her unable to break free Consequently, she stumbled and fell alongside him.

Bracing herself for impact, Cornelia closed her eyes, prepared for the imminent collision with the ground However, to her surprise, she found herself enveloped in a warm and sturdy embrace

Comelia quickly regained her footing, withdrew from his embrace, and turned to thank Ayden, who had rescued her “Ayden, thank you!”

Without a word. Ayden picked up Hayden Ruff and left

Seeing Ayden, Comelia suddenly understood why Manus was so calm He wasn’t indifferent to her plight, he was confident that Hayden Ruff couldn’t harm her

Gently stroking her neck. Marcus said. “Dr Dawson will be here soon, let’s see if Mi Ruff hurt you.”

Filled with feat, Cornelia instinctively took a step back, gripping her collat tightly “Thank you for your concern, President Hartley, but I assume you fin fine.”

Interrupting their conversation, Steven intelected, “Marc, how do you plan to address the Ruff situation?”

Marcus replied with determination. “The Ruffs have been engaging in itegal activities for years I will ensure that each of their misdeeds is exposed, and they face the consequences of their actions

Steven nodded in agreement. “These two have caused significant harm it only the victims had sufficient evidence to bring them down, they wouldn’t have vaded justice for so long”

While conversing with Steven, Marcus discreetly kept an eye on Cornelia. He suggested. “Let’s call it a day and return to the hotel

Patting Marcus on the shoulder, Steven whispered “Why do I have the feeling that your wife doesn’t have romantic feelings for you?”

Marcus retorted. “How would you know?”

Steven replied, drawing from his own experience. “Experience When my Hannah looks at me, her eyes light up. But when Cornella locks at you, her gaze remains calm, devoid of any romantic inclination”

Before Marcus could respond. Comelia’s work phone rang She promptly answered and heard Ben’s voice on the other end. “Cornelia there’s an urgent matter at our European branch. President Hartley needs to handle it personally ve sent the relevant documents to your email. Discuss the details with him”

Cornelia swiftly accessed her email, read through the documents, and grasped the situation. She informed Marcus, “President Hartley, there’s a pressing issue with our European branch.”
