Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1005

Chapter 1005

Cornelia was a straight shooter, can’t stand phony people. She didn’t want to argue with him. “Expensive coffee

should be shared with like–minded people. You’ve got a bone to pick with me, I’ve got one with you, so there’s no

point wasting this cup of coffee. If you’ve got something to spill, just spit it out and don’t waste our time”

Brennen countered, “Who said I’ve got a beef with you? If I really had it in for you, would I invite you for a coffee?”

Cornelia cut to the chase, “Can we drop the act? Doesn’t it wear you out?”

This kind of phoniness made her sick to her stomach.

No matter what Cornelia said, Brennen still ordered the coffee. “Ms. Stewart, you standing there makes me look

inhospitable. Even if you don’t drink the coffee, please take

a seat”

Standing was indeed tiring and Cornelia didn’t want to make things worse for herself, so she sat down across from

Brennen

Brennen didn’t let someone else pour the coffee for her, but picked up a cup himself and took a few sips, “Ms.

Stewart, do you play chess?”

Cornelia could, but she didn’t want to play with him, “I don’t”

Brennen expressed regret, “What a shame. I was hoping to play a game of chess with you. If you beat me, I’ll let

you go. If you lose

Cornelia cut him off, “If I lose, what would you do to me? Lock me up? Or kill me?”

Brennen responded, ‘Ms. Stewart, do you misunderstand me? I invited you here just for a chat. Why do you have

such a big chip on your shoulder about me?”

Cornelia glared at him, ‘Don’t you know why do I have such a big chip on my shoulder about you?”

Brennen asked her to explain, “Could you enlighten me?”

Cornelia was speechless. This guy was so phony!

Thank god Marcus wasn’t influenced by him

Brennen continued, “Ms. Stewart, I want to say, if you can’t beat me, please grant me one request.”

Cornelia gritted her teeth in anger, “You had me kidnapped and brought here, if you want to say something, spit it

ou. Don’t beat around the bush”

Brennen looked at Cornelia and smiled, “Marcus has been having you followed. Your every move is under his

control. I invited you here in this unpleasant way today just to sidestep him and give us a chance to talk alone”

Cornelia asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

Brennen replied, “About Marcus, about your grandmother’s death, and about the man on your marriage certificate,

Jeremy Artis. Which one of these three people are you most interested in, we’ll talk about them first.”

Cornelia had a hunch that Brennen was trying to sow discord between her and Marcus. No matter what he said, she

didn’t want to hear it, I’m not interested in any of them”

Hearing Cornelia’s answer, Brennen didn’t seem surprised at all.
