Marcus had a slight change of expression.

Robert, next to him, signaled him to look outside.

He saw his little lady through the car window, standing in the middle of the street, stunned. Pedestrians were passing her by. The landmark building behind her was the Hamerton Group’s headquarters.

Cordelia stuck her phone against her ear, patiently waiting for his reply.

He sighed and said softly, smiling. “I… stirred trouble in Centrolis before, so I was there for some time.”

Cordelia paused and then changed the subject instantly.

Robert had been watching. He had no idea what Marcus was talking about on the phone, but he was smiling happily.

He had never seen him looking so gentle before.

He only asked quietly after Marcus hung up while seeing Cordelia and her colleague walking far away, “Sir, should we clear the places you mentioned to Ms. Jenner?”

“No need. Let her be at her ease.” Marcus regained his usual coldness. “Send more people to protect her for the next few days. Be discreet. I don’t want her to know.”

“Okay, got it.”

“Also…” He squinted. “Unless I’m there, stop anyone from the Hamertons from getting close to her!”
