Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 414

Chapter 414

He was her lawful husband, but she didn’t dig him. She was actually kinda scared of him.

The discovery pissed Marcus off, but mostly, he just felt helpless. What on earth could he do to make

her like him, even just a tiny bit?

The way he looked at her freaked her out, like he was about to eat her alive. Cornelia was on the verge

of tears, “What can I do to make you trust me? If you don’t trust me, I can swear to God. I don’t have

any inappropriate thoughts about you.”

Before Cornelia could finish her vow, Marcus coldly cut her off, “Did I say I don’t trust you? Don’t swear

Comelia wanted to leave at once, but she was so scared her legs had turned to jelly and she couldn’t

Seeing she hadn’t left immediately, he thought she might want to stay with him a while longer.

This assumption eased Marcus’s mood, “If you don’t want to leave, you can stay with me a bit longer.”

since he had misunderstood, what could she say? If she said she was too frightened to move, he might

get angry.

They sat in silence for a long time before Marcus spoke again, “Cornelia, let’s talk about Jeremy.”

Cornelia didn’t want to discuss her personal matters with Marcus, “President Hartley, let’s talk about

something else.”

Marcus asked, “Don’t you want to talk about your husband?”

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

Marcus said, “Just tell me your opinion of him.”

Cornelia replied, “Jeremy is a good person.”

Marcus asked, “Can you elaborate on how he’s good?”
