Chapter 491
“Yeah, Cornelia and I are tight. We hang out when we have the time Natalia was relieved she’d made
the right call
Just as she thought As soon as she brought up Carnelia. Marcus became more talkative
Marcus adjusted his silver–framed glasses, his gaze still on Natalia’s eyes. At first glance, Natalia’s
eyes seemed similar to Cornelia’s But upon closer inspection, they were totally different.
Cornelia’s eyes were not only well shaped foxlike, but also bright and clear. He could see a galary
sparkling in them, which was absolutely endearing
Natalia thought Marcus was staring at her in disbelief, so she quickly pulled out her phone, “Marcus, if
you don’t believe that Comelia and I are friends. I can call her right now to confirm ”

Natalia breathed a sigh of relief, obediently replying. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. I won’t bother Comelia”
Marcus opened his car door, ready to leave
In a rush, Natalia said. “Marcus, it’s already past 2 am. And the Reese family’s villa area is super quiet.
I’m a bit worried about taking a cab alone, can you give me a lift?” Natalia had been back in the country
for several months, and Cameron had been urging her to get close to Marcus. But she had only seen
him twice.
The first time was the day she returned home, she went to Marcus’s villa with Briana But she was
kicked out before they really had a chance to chat. The second time was on Marcus’s birthday She was
trying to figure out how to find Cornelia when Marcus caught her off guard. She was startled and didn’t
get to chat with him either. Despite her efforts, she hadn’t been able to see Marcus again. So, slie
turned to Cornelia, Marcus’s assistant, believing she could lead her to him.
Unexpectedly, her chance came so fast. She d only been in contact with Cornelia for two days when
she saw Marcus dropping her home. But before she could greet him, he drove off. Just when she was
about to give up, his car came back
She watched from a distance as a stranger approached him. She couldn’t hear their conversation due
to the distance, but it didn’t matter
What mattered was that she had finally run into Marcus and she couldn’t let him slip away She had to
find a way to spend more time with him.
“Marcus, can you give me a lift?” She looked at him, a tear shimmering in her eye, making her look
quite pitiful.
Her eyes were beautifully shaped, but a bit dull. Now filled with tears, they looked much brighter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnce again, Marcus thought he saw Cornelia’s tear–filled eyes. He felt a pang of sympathy, “Are you
really Cornelia’s friend?”
“Yes.” Natalia nodded eagerly.
She hoped Marcus would agree to drive her home. If Marcus could take her back to the Reese family’s
villa, she wouldn’t have to worry about Cameron hitting her Marcus thought there might be something
wrong with his eyes, always mistaking other women’s eyes for Cornelia’s, even though they were
completely different. He softened again, “Austin, drive her home”
Austin and Natalia asked in unison, “What about you?”
Marcus didn’t answer
Natalia hoped he would drive her home, but she knew this was probably the biggest concession
Marcus would make for Cornelia
She didn’t say anything more, just got into the passenger seat, “Marcus, thank you! See your
Marcus nodded in response. Even this small nod made Natalia excited His attitude towards her was
better than any of their previous encounters, giving her hope. But she knew clearly that Marcus’s gentle
attitude tonight was solely because she’d mentioned Cornelia
