Chapter 484
Marcus picked up his fork, ready to have a go at it
Upon seeing his furrowed brows and the effort he was putting into swallowing, Cornelia found him kind
of adorabile, “President Hartley, don’t force yourself if you don’t want to eat it. Not everyone likes this
kind of food. I bet your wife doesn’t like it either, so no need to torture yourself
Out of the blue, Marcus said, “If you like it, I’m sure my wife will too
This left Cornelia speechless
With Cornelia watching Marcus ate a few deep–fried grasshoppers. The greasy and slightly burnt food
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmade him want to hurl the moment it touched his tongue Marcus couldn’t comprehend how Cornelia
could enjoy it so much.
Comelia brought up something Briana had said, “It’s said that these are full of nutrition. It could be good
for you to have some“
After all, he still seemed young His physique wasn’t too bad, and there was probably still hope for him.
Marcus asked, “You think I need to build up my strength?”
Comelia didn’t answer.
Marcus asked again. “Is there anything you don’t like to eat?”
He realized that in all the time they spent together, she never seemed picky about food. She seemed
content with whatever she ate
Cornelia thought for a moment. “I don’t think there’s anything I don’t like. My grandma used to say that I
was easy to feed because I wasn’t fussy”
Though her words sounded light–hearted, Marcus instantly understood the sadness behind them. Her
mother passed away shortly after she was born, and she lost her father in a car accident when she was
just a few years old. These were hard blows for any child. She had to force herself to grow up and hide
her vulnerability.
Cornelia said, “Let’s go to another place for food once we’re done here.”
Marcus replied, “Alright.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter they left the place, Cornelia bought some garlic–roasted oysters from a nearby stall. She loved
the unique flavor, though those unaccustomed to it might not be able to stomach even a single bite.
Cornelia said, “President Hartley, you don’t have to eat this.”
“I’ve eaten grasshoppers, why can’t I eat this? Just the smell made Marcus feel nauseous, but he
ordered one anyway, continuing to accompany Cornelia
Cornelia basically took him to try all the snacks on Flavor Street. On their way back, Marcus’s stomach
was doing flips, but he didn’t show it.
Cornelia, riding shotgun, was clueless about this. She rubbed her belly and sent a voice message to
Zack and Abigail, “Zack, Abby, the street food at Woodpine’s Flavor Street is so good it’s a pity you
guys aren’t here. I couldn’t enjoy it fully by myself. There’s still so much I wanted to eat
Marcus didn’t respond
He had spent the whole night with her, yet she hadn’t mentioned him at all.
