Chapter 366
Cornella was pretty cocky about her cooking skills, “You guys help with some prep and I’ll take care of
the main cooking today”
Dr. Dawson was a whiz in medicine, but his cooking was nothing great, “Sounds good”
Cornelia assigned Dr. Dawson and Ayden to prep the ingredients according to her menu
First up, lamb chops and steak. Everyone was working together, washing and chopping veggies, as
smooth as a well oiled machine in no time, all the ingredients were ready
It was approaching noon. Perfect timing for when Marcus and the gang would be done with work and

But, Cornelia didnt expect Marcus to be home just past noon, and he wasn’t alone. He brought Briana
with him
And by brought I mean he dragged her home like a kid.
As soon as they walked in, Briana started to gripe at Marcus, I’m 23. for crying out loud! You can’t just
haul me off in front of all my friends! I have some dignity, you know” Marcus shot back. If you had any
dignity, you wouldn’t cake your face like that.”
Briana was boiling mad. Everyone does their makeup like this! Why can’t 17 Marcus, you’re just a
control freak! You told me you would butt out of my business, and here you are, sticking your nose in it
again You’re such a hypocrite
Marcus ordered, “Go wash that gunk off your face.”
Briana refused. No way! I won’t do it!”
Marcus challenged. “Say that again!”
Briana retorted, “I said, “No way! You know what, Marcus, I can see why my sister–in–law can’t stand
you! You’re nothing but an overbearing, boring workaholic. You should stay single forever! Why don’t
you just get a divorce and stop wasting her youth? She can find someone who actually cares about
her”
The lock behind Marcus glasses turned serious. The room suddenly became tense, ‘Go to a dark roorn

Dark room! Reflect! No leaving without permission!
These words hit Briana hard, her face turned pale and her hands started shaking as she pointed at
Marcus, “You…”
Cornelia, busy in the kitchen, heard the commotion and came out to see the sibling squabble. She felt
like she stumbled upon something she wasn’t supposed to know.
Not wanting to get in trouble with Marcus, she made a beeline for the exit, pretending she didn’t hear a
thing. But, she was too hasty and accidentally knocked into a chair, catching the attention of the
feuding siblings.
“Cornelia!” Briana ran to Cornelia, threw herself into her arms, and started sobbing. “Cornelia, don’t
leave, please help me.”
