Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 557

Chapter 557

Comelia wasn’t sure if her words would reach Marcus. She just sat there in silence, watching him.

Marcus looked even paler than what she had seen through the window, his face as thin as paper, as if

it could be pierced with a mere touch.

Despite his severe sickness, there was a morbid beauty to his face. It was as if some supernatural

force was involved when his parents created him, giving him such a perfect face.

After staring at Marcus for a while. Cornelia felt it was a bit rude, so she started slowly, “Marcus, do you

remember Bri and your grandma? Your grandma is old, Bri is still a kid, and they depend on you Have

you ever thought about what would happen to them if something happened to you?”

As she spoke, Cornelia watched Marcus on the hospital bed, hoping he would show some reaction.

She talked a lot about his grandma and Bri, but Marcus didn’t respond at all

He didn’t even twitch his fingers or blink his eyes like in the TV dramas.

If family can’t wake him up, could money and women do the trick?

Cornelia wasn’t sure, but she decided to give it a shot, “Marcus, you’re a billionaire with endless wealth.

But now, lying here, you can’t spend a penny. That must suck, huh?” When money didn’t stir him,

Cornelia tried women, “Marcus, there’s a very beautiful female star in the entertainment industry

recently Young and beautiful, even women would be attracted to her, let alone men. If you’d just wake

up, I could help you pursue her, make her yours. Or if there’s any other women you fancy, you can tell

me, I’ll help you get her.”

Cornelia spoke at length, but Marcus remained silent as if he were dead.

Finally, Cornelia thought of his wife.

Realizing that his wife was herself, a bitter feeling washed over Cornelia. But to wake Marcus, she

needed to set her feelings aside for now, “Marcus, do you remember your wife? You promised to live a

good life with her. Don’t go back on your word and leave her a widow at such a young age.”

Whether by coincidence or if he truly cared about his wife, as soon as Cornelia finished speaking, she

saw Marcus finger twitch.

She was over the moon, ‘Marcus, are you awake?”

But Marcus didn’t respond

Cornelia wondered if she was seeing things, so she lightly touched the finger that had just moved.

Unexpectedly, like a beast awakening, Marcus suddenly opened his eyes when her finger touched his

Cornelia exclaimed excitedly. “President Hartley, you’re really awake! Awesome!”

His hand tightly grabbed hers, pulling it into his palm, and in a hoarse voice he said, “Cornelia?”

Cornelia nodded quickly, “Yes, it’s me… I’m Cornelia, I’m so glad you’re awake.”

Just as Cornelia was overjoyed, Marcus closed his eyes again, as if he hadn’t actually woken up, and it

was all just Cornelia’s imagination.

Could this be the clarity before death?

“President Hartley, President Hartley… Cornelia tried calling him a few more times, but he still didn’t

respond.
