Chapter 590 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Before Marcus could even say a word, Cornelia started her rant. “Some meds can have huge side effects, and your old health conditions might flare up again under such circumstances, so you need to gradually adjust your medication. Once we’re back in Riverton, I’ll go and learn some stuff from Dr. Lester, so I can be in charge of preparing your medicine. All in all, health is the most important thing, you gotta take good care of yourself from now on, and you can’t just ignore your health.” In the middle of her rambling. Cornelia was pulled into a strong, warm, and masculine embrace. Then she heard Marcus’ deep, husky voice, “Cornelia…” He held her tight, repeating her name over and over again, as if he was engraving her name into his heart. Marcus was so strong that Cornelia had a hard time breathing, but she didn’t struggle, “I’m here, I’ve always been here.” Cornelia could vaguely sense Marcus’ unease, but she didn’t know why he was uneasy. She wanted to ask him, but the next moment, he let go of her, then held her face and gave her a quick peck, “I missed you.”
• “Hmph, I thought you wouldn’t miss me.” Cornelia grabbed Marcus’ hand, gripping it tightly, “I missed you too! So much! I don’t want to leave you anymore, wherever you go to work in the future, we’ll always be together. Don’t leave me alone at home, okay?” “Okay.” Marcus said. After getting his promise, Cornelia returned to his arms, hugging him tightly, “Jeremy!” “Hmm?” Marcus responded. Cornelia pouted, “I’m imitating you, why aren’t you imitating my response?” “What response?” Marcus knew what Cornelia wanted to hear, but he couldn’t say it, as his current physical condition couldn’t promise her that he’d always be around. Oh well, she wouldn’t hold it against him. Cornelia held Marcus’ hand, “It’s hot, let’s go inside and see Grandpa Augustine.” But when she turned around, she saw Grandpa Augustine quietly watching them from the side. Cornelia blushed, “Grandpa Augustine!” Marcus smiled, “Old Augustine.”
• Grandpa Augustine raised his cane and poked Marcus’ shoulder, “What did you call me?” Cornelia quickly interjected, “You should call him Grandpa Augustine.” Marcus responded, “Grandpa Augustine.” Only then was Grandpa Augustine satisfied, “That’s more like it. I’ll be around for Nelly, so if you ever mistreat her, I’ll be the first one not to let you off.” Cornelia complained, “Grandpa Augustine, you can’t talk to Marc like that.” She had become very protective of Marcus and wouldn’t accept anyone speaking ill of him. She truly had Marcus’ back. Grandpa Augustine asked, “I can’t even say that? You’re protecting him like this. You know you’re gonna spoil him.” Cornelia replied, “Marc is my husband, if I don’t spoil him, should I let someone else do it?” Grandpa Augustine couldn’t argue with Cornelia, and could only turn to the silent Marcus, “You gonna say something or what? You can’t let your wife shield you all the time.”
