Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1075

Marcus was no stranger to receiving compliments and they didn’t really faze him anymore.

Comelia was a beauty with brains, the kind of kid parents would brag about. But since she lost her parents at a

young age, some people labeled her as bad luck, giving her the cold shoulder wherever she went. So, compliments

weren’t really something she was used to. When she heard words of praise now, it would get her all worked up.

She looked up at Marcus with a smile, “Did you hear that, President Harlley? They’re singing our praises. Not just

you, they’re complimenting me as well.”

Marcus lightly touched her hair, “Even if they didn’t, you’re pretty amazing”

Cornelia beamed at this, clutching onto Marcus‘ arm, “How could I match up to someone as amazing as you if I

weren’t? Don’t you think?”

Marcus pulled her into his ams, “You’re the best version of you. You should live for yourself, not to match up to

anyone.”

Comelia rolled her eyes at him, “You’re such a buzzkill. I’m trying to be romantic, and you’re giving me a lecture.”

Marcus stayed silent

Comelia changed the subject, “Let’s go watch a movie.”

It was a war film. Every time she watched something like this, Cornelia would cry like a faucet. And today was no

different.

Not too long after the movie started, Cornelia was already holding back tears. She didn’t want Marcus to see her

cry, so she tried to look up. But the next thing she knew, Marcus was handing her a tissue, “Here.”

Cornelia took it, “How’d you know I was crying? Were you watching me instead of the movie?”

She was just saying it casually, but she hit the nail on the head.

Marcus was slightly taken aback. “I just happened to see”

Cornelia wiped her tears and focused back on the movie, but the tears started to fall again soon after.

Every time she cried, Marcus would wipe her tears. For about a third of the 150–minute film, Marcus was wiping her

tears. By the end of the movie, Cornelia’s eyes were red and swollen, making her look both pitiful and funny,

Marcus asked, “Do you always cry during movies?”

Cornelia sniffed, “No, just war films. I cry when I see team unity and sacrifices. I’m just a softy when it comes to

these kinds of movies. Not with others.”

Marcus said, “Try to avoid these films when I’m not around.”

Before Cornelia could respond, Ayden rushed up to them, “President Hartley.”

Marcus said, “Just spit it out, no need to beat around the bush.”

Ayden said, “Could you come with me? I need to discuss something personal.”

Marcus said to Cornelia, “Wait here for me.”

Comelia figured Ayden wasn’t here for personal matters, but she didn’t press further watching Marcus follow Ayden

a few steps away.

Ayden said, “President Hartley, I just received news that Skyler died.”

Marcus‘ voice rose slightly, “What?”

Ayden said, “Skyler committed suicide by poison. I was worried Cornelia wouldn’t take the news well, so I wanted to

tell you first. Do you think we should let her know?”

The news sent a chill down Marcus‘ spine. He didn’t even want to imagine how Cornelia would react
