Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 225

Chapter 225

Marcus, feeling lost as hell, lit up a cigarette, and the more he puffed, the more his head spun.

The more he tried to figure out how to make his marriage with Cornelia work, the more clueless he felt.

People had been teaching him how to do business since he was a kid, and he had a knack for it. He’d

never failed in his business ventures, and because of that, everyone considered him a big shot in the

business world.

But no one ever taught him how to hold a marriage together. He wasn’t some love guru. In the face of

common marital problems that most people could handle easily, he was like a kid lost in the woods, not

knowing where to start.

He gazed up at the moon in the sky, and a memory from years ago popped into his head.

He couldn’t remember how old he was when it happened, but he remembered clearly that his mom was

with a man he didn’t know, and he walked in on them.

He was too young to understand that this was betrayal or infidelity, but he knew it wasn’t right.

He tried to kick the man out angrily, but the man provoked him by pinching his face and saying, “What

can you do, you little runt? When you grow up and get tough, then come find me.”

He was so pissed off that he bit the man, who in turn tossed him aside, hurting him badly.

His mom, Courtney Kamp–Hartley, was there but did nothing to help him; instead, she blamed him for

messing up her plan.

He never forgot that man’s words, found him when he grew up, and in a short time drove the man’s

company to bankruptcy.

The man couldn’t handle the hit and tried to off himself, but ended up crippling his legs instead.

Sitting in a wheelchair, the man blamed Courtney for not teaching her son properly.

Courtney, seeing the man become a cripple, cut off all ties with him immediately. Since then, there have

always been different men around her.

That’s why Courtney was always pissed at him, considering him the disgrace of the family.

His parents‘ marriage was such a hot mess, so he never thought about getting married before. If it

wasn’t for making his Granny happy. he wouldn’t have married a stranger in a heartbeat.

But since he promised his Granny to get married, he decided to make it work with this girl.

He thought all he needed to do was hand her a credit card, let her not worry about money, and live a

carefree life, but it seemed like it wasn’t that simple.

Cornelia came out after finishing up her paperwork and saw Marcus spacing out in the yard. His lonely

figure was heartbreaking.

She walked up to him and said, “Mr. Hartley, can we leave now?”

Marcus snapped back to reality and looked at her, his eyes filled with a bit of despair. “Yeah.”

Cornelia noticed, “Mr. Hartley, you seem troubled.”

Marcus sighed deeply. “I’m trying to figure out how to make a marriage last.”

Cornelia asked, “Is there a problem between you and your wife?”

Marcus answered, “We’re okay for now, but just solving the current problems isn’t enough. I hope to

spend the rest of my life with her, which means I need to think long–term. But I have no clue what to do

due to a lack of experience.”
