Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 680

He was seriously disappointed in Cornelia. Normally, he'd call her by her first name in a warm and friendly manner, but this time he called her "Ms. Stewart", which was cold as ice.

Cornelia knew she was misunderstood but didn't bother to explain, "Isn't that what I am now?"

The fact that she could say such a shameless thing blew Ben's mind. He was deeply disappointed in Cornelia, "You knew President Hartley was married yet you seduced him. Don't you have a sense of propriety and decency?"

Cornelia just chuckled, "Why does it have to be me seducing President Hartley, and not him seducing me?"

Her response made Ben tremble with rage, "How can you say such shameless things? It was dark in the elevator, but I'm not blind. I saw you throw yourself at President Hartley. He kissed you because of your initiative. How dare you say it's President Hartley who seduced you? I really underestimated you."

The more Ben scolded, the more flustered he became. Seeing Ben all fired up made Cornelia want to tease him further, "You've been around President Hartley for so many years, have you ever seen anyone successfully seduce him?"

Ben seriously pondered Cornelia's question. There were indeed numerous women who had tried to woo President Hartley over the years, all sorts of types.

There were hot chicks, innocent girls, even married women. Overall, there was no shortage of them, "What does this have to do with whether anyone has seduced President Hartley?"

Cornelia replied, "If he didn't initiate it, how could I dare to seduce him? Aren't I afraid he'll fire me? You know how hard it was for me to get this job, why would I jeopardize my future?"

Cornelia's argument made sense to Ben, and he started to waver, "So you're saying President Hartley forced or tricked you?"

He'd known Cornelia for a year, and whether she had feelings for Marcus was pretty clear. In his mind, Cornelia had always been a hard-working and outstanding girl, who definitely wouldn't seduce someone else's husband.

Cornelia replied, "Not at all."

Ben grumbled, "Stop defending him. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing. He appears to be a gentleman in public, but who knows what he's done behind people's backs."

Cornelia felt deeply moved, but Ben continued to grow angrier, "I warned him back then, but he just got mad at me. I hate myself for always being too scared to confront him whenever I see him."

Cornelia scratched her head awkwardly, "You've been with him for so many years, you've never seen him act this way with any other girls, have you?"

Ben replied, "Indeed, that was the only time. But he's always been good at keeping secrets. I wouldn't know about things he didn't want me to know."

These words made Cornelia very happy, as they confirmed that Marcus was as rumored. He didn't casually engage with girls.

But Ben was still indignant on behalf of Cornelia, "Cornelia, you have to be brave. If Marcus dares to force you, I'll be on your side to fight him!"

"Fight who?" The door suddenly opened, and Marcus's deep voice echoed in.
