Chapter 114 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

  • Cornelia walked into the CEO’s office, respectfully asking “Mr. Hartley, you needed something?” Marcus snuffed out the barely lit cigarette in his hands, “At future formal events, the ladies of the company need to wear shoes Ever thought about what kind of shoes you’d be wearing?” Comelia was touched that he remembered such a seemingly trivial matter, “Boss, thanks for caring about us girls!” It’s tough for women in the workplace A lot of companies have some pretty stringent rules for female employees. Rarely does a big shot boss like him consider the difficulties faced by female employees The longer she worked with Marcus, the more she believed that the rumors about him were pure hogwash. He’s such a nice guy, there’s no way he’d do anything to hurt his family She quickly pulled up a photo on her phone and showed him, “Boss, I think this style is great It’s simple and elegant, and comfortable to wear” The shoes in the photo were the ones he just gave her. Seeing her high praise, Marcus was delighted, “You picked them that quickly?”
  • “Jeremy just gifted me a pair of leather shoes. They’re both good looking and comfy, I thought our female employees could wear something like this Cornelia didn’t realize how proud she sounded mentioning Jeremy, but Marcus noticed His mood improved even more, and when he’s in a good mood, he’s ready to make big moves, ‘Let’s go with this style then. Also, the company will custom make two pairs of these shoes for each female employee Get the relevant department to collect their shoe sizes Considering the size of the company, ordering two pairs for each woman, even at wholesale prices, would be a huge expense. This wasn’t just showing his generosity, but also his understanding and respect for women. Alright, I’ll shoot them an email right away” As Cornelia was about to leave, Marcus stopped her, “Write the email here, let me see it before you send it “Sure” Cornelia focused on her email, completely oblivious to Marcus’s gentle yet firm gaze on her. He silently repeated her name in his heart, as if trying to etch “Cornelia” deep within him, never to be forgotten. Cornelia finished her email, and when she looked up, she was startled by Marcus’s intense yet gentle gaze, “Mr. Hartley?” “What’s up?” Marcus’s gaze quickly returned to its usual calm, making Cornelia wonder if she had imagined it all. She just reminded herself not to overthink, and here she was, overthinking again! Cornelia quickly snapped out of her own thoughts Marcus calmly said, “Great job, send it to the admin department. Let them handle it, you don’t need to worry anymore” Cornelia immediately hit the send button. The admin department quickly replied. “This is great news for our female employees. We’ll let everyone know right away.”
  • Soon after, the Hartley Group’s admin department released a new dress code, cancelling the requirement for female employees to wear high heels. At events where high heels were previously required, female employees could now choose to wear high heels or flat leather shoes. News of this made the female employees very happy Even in the soundproof CEO’s office, they could hear some cheering Cornelia said with a smile, “Mr. Hartley, can you hear that? Those cheers are all because of you.” Marcus stared into her bright eyes, softly asking, “Are you happy?” Chapter 211 Cornelia was noodling over how to keep the ladies at the office happy. As long as they were in high spirits, she was happy. However, Marcus, the guy’s a business shark through and -through. For Marcus, raking in the dough was always priority one. He didn’t have the heart to break a sweat for all the ladies. Everything he did, every sweet word he spun, was just because Cornelia was his better half He would move heaven and earth just to see her smile. Under his gaze, Cornelia felt a bit sheepish, “Of course. I’m happy.” As long as she was happy. Marcus cracked a smile, “It’s late, clock out.”
