Chapter 993
“If you didn’t really like him, you wouldn’t care about losing him” Sallie chuckled at Cornelia, “Your husband is such
a great guy, and you’re with him day in and day out. How could you possibly not like him?”
Comeha didn’t reply just quietly looking out at the sea of clouds Sallie was right. If she didn’t like him, she wouldn I
care if Marcus left her
The reason she was scored was that she cared about him. She was scared of not being able to spend the rest of
her life with him
Sallie went on, “Cornelia, there’s something I want to tell you. Want to hear it?”
Cornelia asked. ‘What is it?”
Sallie asked. “Do you remember when Marc took you to my studio to buy a dress?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCornelia nodded. I remember.”
Sallie said. “I asked him then if he liked you Guess what he said?”
Cornelia turned to ask, “What did he say?”
Sallie said. “All he said was that you were his wife. I knew then that his feelings for you weren’t love, but a sense of
responsibility But today, I asked him the same question and he gave me an unequivocal and serious answer. He
said he liked you”
Cornelia knew that Marcus was never stingy about expressing his liking for her, and she understood what Sallie was‘
saying. So she said, “But how long can this liking last?”
Sallie asked. “Don’t you trust him?”
Cornelia said, “It’s not that I don’t trust him. It’s just that the human heart is the rnost unpredictable thing in the
world.”
Sallie said, ‘Im not sure about other men, but I trust Marc. I’ve known him for over a decade, longer than you have,
and I should know him better. I’ve never seen him. intimately involved with any other women, except you”
Cornelia smiled and looked back out at the clouds It wasn’t that she was worried that Marcus would change his
heart; she was worried that she would change. Not only did her father’s blood run through her veins, but Clair’s as
well.
If one day, she too became like Clair, abandoning her husband and children for the pursuit of excitement, or
whatever… Even the thought was detestable to her!
Feeling that Cornelia didn’t want to discuss this topic any further, Sallie switched the subject, ‘What brings you to
Rosenberg this time? Why didn’t Marc come with you?”
Cornelia said, “I’m from Rosenberg.”
Sallie said, “I see. Did you hear about what happened in Rosenberg a few days ago?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia asked, “You mean the video?”
Sallie said, “Yes. A few days ago, a girl was drugged and taken home by a man, only to be misunderstood as a
mistress. The video had a big impact. Even the popular actress Hannah spoke out for the girl, attracting widespread
attention in society.
“Because the incident happened in Rosenberg, the Rosenberg government planned to hold a charity event, and I
was invited as a guest. If you’re interested, you can come and see We’ll try to speak out for more women”
Cornelia was overjoyed to hear the news, which justified her decision to go public with the video.
If more and more attention can be paid to this victimized group, and if everyone pays enough attention, then there
would be fewer incidents in the future
Cornelia asked. ‘Have you considered contacting the girl in the video, to have her speak out with you?”
Sallie replied, “Someone suggested it, but most people were against it. Though the girl is not at fault, you know how
harsh society can be on women. If we release her current photo, it would definitely affect her normal life, which is
not what people who truly want to speak out for her would want to see.
Cornelia followed up. “What if she’s willing to do it herself?”
