Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 124

Marcus didn’t dare to move recklessly, so he quickly tucked Cornelia into bed. Then he went to the bathroom to soaked a towel with hot water, and came back to gently wipe her face When he got to the part that had been kissed by Alvina Lacy, he scrubbed a bit harder, as if to wash away the traces left by someone else on her

She was his wife and he hadn’t even kissed her face Why should anyone else be allowed to?

“Abby, Zack” Cornelia suddenly grabbed his hand without even opening her eyes, you guys are so good to me. When will ever be able to repay you?”

“You don’t need to repay them I do it for you later “Marcus held her hand, “Sleep now I’ll be here for you from now on.”

Cornelia asked in a daze. “Who are you?”

7 want to say I’m your husband, the man who will stand by your side for the rest of your life” Marcus really wanted to tell her that, but what right did he have to say these things to her

now?

He ruffled her har and whispered, “Who do you want me to be?”

Cornelia opened her eyes and looked into his, feeling both farmiliar and unfamiliar, ‘Are you a magician? Can you be whoever I want you to be?”

Her eyes were glazed with drunkenness, but the brightness in them was still unmistakable. She looked so beautiful and adorable. Marcus’s heart softened, “Yeah, you can tell me Suddenly and unexpectedly, Cornelia opened her arms wide and yelled, “Mom, hug me!”

“Mom?” Marcus was both annoyed that she saw him as her mother and unable to resist her request for a hug. He opened his arms, embraced her, and gently patted her back, “Sleep now,

sweetheart”

Marcus had seen her background information and knew that her mother had left when she was just a few days old. There should be no memory of her mother in her mind

He thought that normal people wouldn’t miss someone they had no memory of, but he had overlooked the power of blood ties. Every child longs for the love of his or her mother and

father

“Hold me tight, and I’ll be good.” She curled up in his arms, rubbing against him like a newborn panda cuddling with its mother, “I haven’t done anything wrong, I’m really good. Please dont leave me and my dad, okay?”

A tear rolled down her cheek without warning, and Marcus’s breath was caught, “You’re great, no one would ever want to leave you.” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

The Cornelia he knew was an outstanding assistant who could handle any task given to her with ease and efficiency.

She had been working with him for a long time and had never made a mistake on the job

He could see that she had a very strong personality, never allowing herself to make even the slightest error, and never showing her vulnerability to others.

But did that mean she wasn’t vulnerable?

She was a young girl around the same age as his sister Briana Hartley. When Briana was still pampered and spoiled in their mother’s arms, Cornelia had already taken on responsibilities that no one at her age should have to bear

These responsibilities were given to her by her family, and she had no choice but to endure them, hiding her vulnerability deep in her heart and licking her own wounds.

Marcus tightened his embrace, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say

Cornelia whispered, “I have a headache and I’m thirsty”

Marcus was about to let go of her to get some water, but as soon as he started to loosen his grip, she clung to him even tighter, “You said you wouldn’t leave me.”

Im not leaving you. You’re thirsty, and I’m just going to get some water.” He tried to explain patiently, but she wouldn’t listen. She firmly held onto his clothes and refused to let him go. So, Marcus went along with her.

He sat by the bed, quietly keeping her company.
