Chapter 126 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Marcus asked, “Aren’t you home yet?” He wasn’t happy and Comelia was a bit on edge, worried that her upcoming holiday might go up in smoke. She wasn’t sure if it was because she hadn’t replied to Jeremy’s WhatsApp, which might have made him worry about her safety She replied, “I’m already home What’s up?” There was a pause on the other end, then Marcus voice came back Thave some personal stuff to deal with in the next few days. You guys can take a break” “You already told me that” The midnight call to tell her about the holiday hinted that the boss was excited about a date with his lady Marcus seemed puzzled “Did 17” “Sorry, I must have remembered wrong” Cornelia responded, reasoning that the boss couldn’t have forgotten, so it must have been her “Well, good night, President Hartley!” She said goodnight and waited for him to hang up He didn’t, and she felt awkward hanging up first “Is there anything else, President Hartley?”
• Marcus said her name again in his deep, captivating voice. “Cornelia” Why did he and Jeremy like to call her name but say nothing else? Was it a guy thing to seem mysterious? “Yes?” “Nothing get some rest early” He finally hung up After putting down her work phone, she remembered her own. She opened WhatsApp and saw a few unread messages from Jeremy “Are you home yet?” “Why arent you replying?” “Comelia, reply to me” Hmm, he seemed anxious. She replied. “President Hartley treated us to dinner tonight I just got home and took a shower, I didn’t see your messages” Jeremy responded. “Hmm” Hmm? He sent several messages urging her to reply, and when she did, all he said was “Hmm“. Annoyed, Cornelia asked, “Don’t you have anything else to say?” Jeremy replied, “I just wanted to make sure you got home safely” His casual remark meant the world to Cornelia She hadn’t told Granny Rebecca and Abby about the incident that night. She had been dealing with the fear it brought all alone, and only he had been consistently concerned about her. Jeremy. I’m over what happened that night Im not afraid anymore, and you don’t need to worry” She typed a lot, then thought, He’s her husband; what’s wrong with him worrying about her?
• She deleted everything and ended up replying with two words: “Thank you” Jeremy responded, “What for? Some things didn’t need to be spelled out. Cornelia didn’t want to revisit that night, so she changed the subject to “Thanks for recommending the interior designer“! Jeremy “I’m your husband, you don’t need to be so formal with me. You can trust Trent Brown, his interior design skills are pretty decent. You can tell him any ideas you have. You can ask him to submit the design of the entire house first and only start the renovation when you’re completely satisfied. Our goal is to make the actual result match the design as closely as possible.” Cornelia didn’t know much about renovation, but she understood that the actual result could never perfectly match the design. “If I’m really that strict, will I make it impossible for your friends to work?” Jeremy replied, “Remember, he’s not doing this for free, you’re paying him, youre the client. Don’t worry about whether you guys can still be buddies afterward Comelia thought he made sense “I got it‘ “Comelia” Jeremy said Here we go again, just as always Cornelia pouted, “Stop just saying my name without adding anything else‘ Marcus had a lot to say to her but didn’t know how to start, so in the end, all he replied was.
