Chapter 928

Marcus:[Why are you still up?]

Cornelia [I’m about to hit the sack]

Marcus [If you can’t sleep, why not keep me company and chat?]

Cornelia [What’s on your mind?]

Marcus [Your video has stirred up quite a buzz, and a lot of folks are starting to pay attention to this issue. There

are already many women with similar experiences to yours inspired by you to come forward and call the police]

Cornelia [The whole point of releasing that video was to encourage all women to be brave. I want all women to

know that it’s not the victims who should feel ashamed, it’s the perpetrators.]

Marcus [What you did was really amazing, a lot of women are gonna see this and it’s already helped a lot of people

who needed it. Remember that idea you brought up about setting up a women’s support group within the Hartley

Group? You should totally get on that as soon as you can]

Cornelia [Sure thing, as soon as I’m done with my grandma’s stuff, I’ll get on that.]

In the living room.

Marcus and Zack were each sitting on opposite ends of the couch. Both of them were sitting in silence, no one

seemed to want to break it, making the situation a bit awkward.

After what felt like forever, Marcus pulled out his phone and started texting.

Zack, watching him engrossed in his chat, started to feel a bit ticked off. His wife had gone to bed and he was here

texting away, seemed a bit off.

Zack craned his neck, trying to get a peek at who Marcus was chatting with, but they were too far apart. Despite his

efforts, he can’t see anything.

Marcus was still texting away. Zack said with some displeasure: “Mr. Hartley, it’s late as hell and you’re still in the

mood to text? Seems like you don’t give a damn about Nelly”

Marcus kept his head down, continued texting, completely ignoring Zack.

Zack was getting pretty steamed. After a while, he went again: “Mr. Hartley, do you know how important Granny

Rebecca is to Nelly?”

At the mention of Cornelia, Marcus finally looked up at Zack.

Zack said Thought you were ignoring me, turns out you’re not.”

Zack’s words were a bit provocative, but Marcus didn’t want to engage. He kept his head down and continued

texting Cornelia, trying to distract her.

Seeing Marcus staying silent and texting again, Zack got seriously pissed: “Mr. Hartley, would you drop dead if you

stopped texting? Is there anything more important than Nelly?”

Marcus looked up and said: “No.”

Zack: “No! Then why are you still texting?”

Marcus: “What’s Cornelia got to do with me texting?”

Zack was about to blow his top, “I hope you realize, Nelly and Granny Rebecca have been each other’s rock for

nearly twenty years. Not only is Nelly everything to Granny Rebecca, Granny Rebecca is everything to Nelly. She’s

her pillar of strength.”
