Chapter 29
7 accept your apology Cornelia looked coldly at Helena, not sure what she was up to. “But, Marcus decided to let you go from the Hartley Group You’ve known him for so many years, you should know better than me that his decisions are unchangeable”
“Cornelia, you can change his decision, because everything Marcus does is for you” Helena seemed to lose her sanity, grabbing Cornelia’s arms tightly
Her hands gripped Cornelia’s injured arm, unable to tell if it was intentional or not. “Cornelia, I beg you, please help me. You’re the only one who can. If you don’t plead for me, I have nowhere to go but death…
“Helena, let go first, you’re hurting me “Cornelia tried to push her away, but a normal person’s strength couldn’t compare to someone who had lost their sanity.
Helena clung to Cornelia, shaking her frantically I won’t let go! If I let go of you, I’m done.”
Let her go! Marcus’s deep voice suddenly sounded.
Helena, frightened, immediately let go of her hand, her face covered in snot and tears. “Marcus, I’ve already apologized to Cornelia Please forgive me, don’t make me leave Marcus quickly stepped forward, protecting Cornelia behind him. “Ayden.”
Hearing Marcus call his name, Ayden appeared by their side like a ghost, carrying the irrational Helena away on his shoulder
Marcus turned his head, seeing Cornelia’s pale face and the beads of sweat rolling down her forehead
He reached out to wipe her sweat, but stopped just before his fingers touched her forehead.
Cornelia’s flushed lips moved slightly, whispering, “It hurts..
Marcus, no longer caring about anything, picked her up in his arms. “Dr. Dawson!”
Dr. Dawson had been here all along, holding her medical kit, but hesitated to interrupt the two standing so close to each other
Marcus carried Cornelia inside, and Dr. Dawson immediately followed “Cornelia, are you okay?”
How could she be okay?
She was in so much pain!
Cornelia was in so much pain that she couldn’t speak, and kept taking deep breaths.
Marcus coldly said, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and check her wound.”
Cornelia,
At this critical moment, Marcus was still more rational, not asking her if she was okay.
He settled her on the sofa, gently supporting her shoulder, feeling her shivering from the pain. He impatiently yelled again, “Hurry up!”
Although he yelled at Dr. Dawson, Cornelia shrank back in fear.
Dr. Dawson said, “You scared Cornelia.”
Marcus,”
Cornelia had a coat nonchalantly thrown over her, under which she donned easy–to–remove loose sleepwear.
When Dr. Dawson tried to help Cornelia remove her sleepwear, Marcus consciously turned away, only to hear Cornelia cry out in pain with a hint of laughter.
He quickly turned back to see Cornelia’s arm wrapped in thick bandages, already stained red with blood
Cornelia’s eyes and nose were red and swollen, looking very pitiful
Marcus sought to offer some comforting words, but struggled to find them. Eventually, he turned to her and stated, “Helena’s exit from the Hartley Group bears no relation to you.”
Cornelia pouted in grievance, I’m not as stupid as her.”
Cornelia didnt understand why Helena foolishly thought Marcus was risking his life for her. If Helena had any brains, she wouldn’t have thought that way
Cornelia felt that she had been particularly unlucky lately, with everything happening to her
Marcus added, “Helena hasn’t been in the West Region for long, but she’s already bribed a lot of money”
Cornelia,
No wonder the scenic area’s streetlights hadn’t been installed yet, and the hotel’s management was a mess Fortunately, Marcus arrived early and investigated the surroundings, learning the truth.
This Helena looked very honest, but she had no idea that Marcus was even more terrifying than a tiger.
