Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 688

Were they really in that much of a hurry? Couldn't they even wait to take an extra step?

The office door wasn't even closed. Weren't they afraid of being seen by others?

While Ben was internally criticizing the shameless couple, he also had to considerately close the door for them, making it easier for them to do whatever they were up to in the office.

Thank God the CEO's office was soundproof, otherwise keeping it a secret would be tough. Especially with so many people working in the secretariat who could potentially pass by the CEO's office.

Normally, for a man like Marcus of high status, getting a woman was as easy as pie, and no one would dare to backbite. Many of these big shots like Marcus had lovers outside, and their wives at home knew and didn't mind.

Maybe they did mind, but felt they couldn't control it, so they stoped trying.

Even if Marcus was married, being with his personal assistant wouldn't affect him. And those who knew would only compliment him as a casanova, a lucky guy.

But this affair was a whole different story for Cornelia. Once others found out about their private relationship beyond work and it spread, Cornelia would become the immoral person in everyone's mouth. She would be accused of betrayal, of seducing a married man.

If this label stuck to Cornelia, and the CEO's wife started causing trouble, Marcus might stop protecting Cornelia. Without anyone to protect her, Cornelia would be like an abandoned person. Then, Cornelia would have no choice but to leave the Hartley Group.
