Chapter 404 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Marcus didn’t get a chance to argue when Cornelia shot back, “Did you and your sister team up to screw me over?” Marcus was left speechless Cornelia huffed. “I don’t want excuses. You need to find your grandmas and Patricia’s phones and delete that video before they see it With that, Cornelia stormed off into the house, leaving the two of them staring at each other Realizing she pissed Cornelia aff, Briana attempted to bail But Marcus‘ stern voice echoed from behind her, “Briana” She turned around, grinning at Marcus, “Bro, it was all Grandma’s idea. If you’re going to blame anyone, blame her Marcus snapped, “You blame everything on Grandma. Whatever she asks, you would do. Don’t you have a mind of your own?” Briana replied, “Grandma is old, and her biggest wish is to have a great–grandchild. As a dutiful granddaughter, how can I ignore her wishes?” Marcus said seriously, “All you do is make excuses”
• Seeing she was in hot water, Briana quickly apologized, “You’re right, it’s my fault!” While she admitted her wrongs, she didn’t truly believe she was at fault. She was just following Grandma’s orders, keeping tabs on the couple, and reporting any news to Grandma to help her realize her wish She’d put in a lot of effort for this family. She hadn’t done anything wrong! Not at all! Marcus asked, “What did you do wrong?” Briana answered, “Everything” Marcus said, “You make mistakes and show no remorse. Starting from tomorrow, you’re grounded. Reflect on yourself.” Briana said, “Bro, are you joking?” Marcus ignored her and walked away. Briana hurned after him, “Pease forgive me this time. I promise it won’t happen again. I’ll take better care of Cornelia if you don’t punish me?” Marcus asked, “If I punish you, you won’t take care of Cornelia?” Briana replied. “Of course I’ll still take care of Cornelia, she’s always been nice to me. But if you don’t punish me, I can take even better care of her” Marcus said, “This isn’t a situation for bargaining.” Brana pleaded, “Bro, please.”
• She really shouldn’t have annoyed Marcus by messing with the person he cared about the most, all because of Grandma’s words. If only Cornelia spoke up for her when Marcus was picking on her. She definitely needed to be smarter in the future and know who not to mess with in the house After showering, Cornelia went straight to bed, still seeming miffed Marcus came into the room, but she ignored him and buried herself under the covers, pretending to be asleep He didn’t bother with her either. Cornelia perked up her ears and listened. From the sounds of it, Marcus went to the bathroom. After a while, she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom, and then the water stopped Next was the sound of the bathroom door opening and closing. Then, Cornelia heard what seemed like deliberately softened footsteps, slowly approaching Just as she felt him nearing, Cornelia cracked one eye open to see him toweling off his hair, with no intention of using a blow dryer. He was of weak constitution, and could easily catch a cold with wet hair. Even though she was still pissed, Cornelia couldn’t help but worry for him, I’m not asleep yet. Use the blow–dryer” Marcus asked, “You’re not asleep?
