Chapter 118 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- Comelia said, “I’m not quick to trust people, but once I choose to, I go all in. I fully trust every word you say now, I hope you can prove you’re worth it.” Marcus felt a bit awkward after reading this. When he found out she was his legal wife, he didn’t immediately tell her who he was. It was like he’d planted a ticking time bomb for their relationship. Now that she’s starting to like this “Jeremy” persona, if he tells her now that Jeremy and Marcus are same person, she might not be able to take it.
- After thinking for a bit, he replied, ‘As long as you trust me, I genuinely want to live a happy life with you.” Comelia replied, “Got it. I’m gonna take a shower and go to bed, goodnight!” Jeremy replied, “good night.” Sure enough, the next moming Cornelia received the loan notice from the bank. The sales department also informed them that they could come in on a workday to handle the paperwork. With things being a bit slow at the company recently, Cornelia decided to ask Marcus for a half day off, “President Hartley, I’d like to take a half day this afternoon.” Marcus asked, “What’s up?” Cornelia answered, “The loan for my house has been approved, I want to get a jump on the paperwork.”
- Marcus glanced at his watch, “I was planning to do the same, want to go together?” Cornelia didn’t object, “Sure.” Marcus didn’t call his driver, so by default, Cornelia became his chauffeur. In the car, Marcus casually asked, “How do you like driving this car?” Cornelia answered, “Pretty good.” That ended the conversation. Marcus didn’t know what else to talk about, so they drove in silence. As they were nearing the sales office, Cornelia asked a question she’d been meaning to, “President Hartley, you already have so many properties, why would you want to buy here?” Marcus chuckled, giving her an answer she didn’t see coming, “Because my wife likes this complex.” Cornelia asked, “Have you and your wife made up?” “Yeah, we’ve been getting along pretty well.” Cornelia being willing to give Jeremy a chance, to chat with him, even bought him a pair of sneakers, it was a sign of their improving relationship.
