Chapter 1043

Marcus knew that once he kicked the bucket, if Cornelia was still kicking around the Hartley Group, if she wanted to help Granny Luisa and him keep the Hartley Group, that would be like throwing her to the wolves, fighting for scraps with them.

Thinking back on his convo with Brennen that day, Marcus felt his uncase growing stronger. All he could think about was that he couldn’t let Cornelia be in such a dog–eat–dog world no matter what.
