Comelia said, “Ive poured my whole life’s knowledge and skills into this, went through countless selections, and fought my way up from a division to the headquarters in The Hartley Group. Then, I had to compete with so many others for the position of the presidents assistant. After even more selections, I finally got to stand before you for
your selection
“If I had made even the slightest mistake during this process. I wouldn’t have been able to stand by your side as your assistant. This job wasn’t easy to get. I can’t just give it up like that
“I’m glad you chose me as your assistant, because after working by your side, my annual salary has shot up from a few tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand. Over a hundred thousand a year, that’s money that many people can’t make in their whole lives. For me, that’s already a huge amount, it has brought me one step closer to my goal of buying a house”
Upon hearing this, Marcus suddenly felt an unbearable pain in his heart, “You’ve taken the past ninety nine steps, let me take the next one, okay?”
Comelia said, “Sure But I need your advice now, should accept Taylor’s offer of two hundred and fifty thousand?”
After all, this amount was a huge sum to Cornelia. It came too easily, and she felt uneasy about it.
Marcus said, “We’re in the information age now, information is more valuable than the people who execute it. Simply put, whoever you tell that piece of information to, can make money from it. But Taylor is different, if he didn’t have your information, he wouldn’t make that money You should take that money, take it without any pressure”
His analysis was so sharp and thorough, and he could see the essence of the problem at a glance
Cornelia said. “Thank you! You’ve put my mind at ease.”
Marcus suddenly thought of something. “You told me before on WhatsApp that you wanted to secretly take pictures of the president and his wife to sell. Are you still thinking about that?”
Cornelia said, “Don’t bring up what shouldn’t be brought up, we can still be friends. If you continue to bring it up, we can’t be friends anymore.”
Marcus said, “I don’t want to be your friend, I’m your husband”
Cornelia was speechless.
After more than an hour drive, they returned to the city.
Cornelia drove her new sports car with Marcus, Ben didn’t notice anything unusual and still followed them up to the president’s exclusive elevator
The elevator quickly ascended, the floor numbers increasing rapidly. Suddenly there was a loud bang, the elevator came to a stop, then suddenly started free–falling
Cornelia screamed in fright. But the next moment, she found herself in a warm embrace, and heard Marcus’s gentle voice, “Cornelia, don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
He was there, and she wasn’t that scared anymore.
Fortunately, the elevator only fell a few floors before stopping again. But, the lights in the elevator went out, leaving it in complete darkness. They could only hear each other’s rapid breathing
Cornelia quickly calmed down. She left Marcus’s embrace, turned on her phone’s flashlight to illuminate the inside of the elevator, then pressed the emergency call button, “We re trapped in the president’s exclusive elevator. It’s very dangerous. You need to send someone to deal with this immediately”
The other end responded immediately, “Ms. Stewart, please wait a moment. Someone from the engineering department is on the way”
Cornelia, “Okay”
“President Hartley, someone from the engineering department is on the way. We shouldn’t be trapped for long” Cornelia said loudly, both to inform Marcus and to reassure herself that they shouldn’t be afraid, and everything should be fine.
After saying this, she didn’t get a response from Marcus, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong.
She shone her phone’s flashlight towards Marcus and noticed that his handsome face seemed to be contorted
Cornelia quickly turned off her flashlight and walked over to him. She stood by his side, and held his hand. Her fingers interlaced with his, tightly holding his hand, “It’s okay, we can get through this.”
