Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 548

Chapter 548

Dr. Dawson couldn’t even finish her sentence before she got shut out of the room.

Marcus looked at Cornelia with concern, “Don’t take to heart what others say ”

“I won’t” As Cornelia helped Marcus onto the hospital bed, she said, “Mr Hartley you lie down first. I’ll

get the doctor to change your IV”

Marcus, “Alright”

Cornelia immediately called a doctor from the hospital. The doctor had several instructions to share

with Cornelia, but a single look from Marcus made the doctor calm down And after the doctor

administered the medication he quietly left the room.

As soon as the doctor left, Marcus said to Cornelia, “Sit down, I’ve got something to discuss with you.”

He asked her to sit, and even though she was not entirely comfortable with him, Cornelia obediently

took a seat, “Mr. Hartley, what is it?”

Seeing her regain her composure, Marcus felt a little relieved, “Cornelia, I don’t know what mess you’re

in But whatever it is, you can tell me.”

Cornelia mustered the courage to look at him. He seemed so heartless, but the eyes behind those

silver glasses always gave off a warm illusion.

She could see his genuine concern for her in his eyes, and none of it seemed fake.

He still appeared to be the Marcus she knew a gentleman with impeccable manners when silent, and a

powerful leader of the Hartley Group when speaking.

He hadn’t changed, what changed was how she felt about him.

Before she could figure out how to deal with their complicated relationship, Cornelia decided not to

touch on it, and wait until she had a clear mind to deal with it.

Marcus was very patient. “You can’t tell me? Is that so?”

Cornelia nodded

Marcus smiled, “That’s okay, let me know when you’re ready. For now, I’ll have the doctor take you for

a full body checkup.”

Cornelia refused, “I just felt a little unwell earlier, I’m fine now, no need for a checkup”

Marcus was not convinced, “It won’t take long.”

Cornelia, “Mr. Hartley, why are you so kind to me? Don’t you think your kindness to me has surpassed

what a superior should show to an employee? Even Dr. Dawson feels it’s too much.”

Marcus, “Because…”

Cornelia interrupted him, “I know you’ll say it’s because of Jeremy But you’re you and he’s him. You

guys will never be the same person. You should take care of your own wife, not your friend’s wife.”

Marcus, “Cornelia, actually I am…”

He didn’t want to hide his identity anymore. He wanted to openly care for her, as her husband. But

Cornelia didn’t give him the chance. She cut him off, sensing where he was going with it, “Mr. Hartley,

it’s late, I should go.”

“Alright. This time, Marcus didn’t try to keep her. He didn’t dare to.

He watched helplessly as Cornelia walked out, watched as she disappeared from his sight. He closed

his eyes, unable to suppress the pain, and sank back into the endless

darkness.
