Chapter 664 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• Cornella was unsure whether she was overthinking. If things were indeed as she suspected, it would be bloody disgusting. Just like Hannah and Rosie said, men who could enjoy the woman in front of them while thinking about another woman were revolting. It felt like eating something vile. Ben was quiet for a few seconds, then finally said, “Cornelia, you’ve got it all wrong. I just thought of you during Christmas, so I decided I’d give you a call to wish you well.” “Really? Well, Merry Christmas to you and your family again. It’s already late, I’m off to bed, goodbye!” After saying this, Cornelia hung up the phone. After hanging up, Cornelia just stared at her phone.
• Even though it was just a phone call, Ben’s long silence was enough to let her know that her suspicion was correct. She didn’t understand why Marcus would do such a thing. Was it in a man’s nature to enjoy the woman in front of him while thinking about another one? After mulling over it for a while, Cornelia found a familiar phone number. She stared at the number for a long time but still didn’t have the guts to hit the call button. On Ben’s side. Listening to the busy tone on the phone, he turned to look at the man half–lying in bed still receiving an IV, swallowed nervously.
• “President Hartley.” The man lifted his eyes and gave him a glance Ben quickly changed his address, “Mr. Artis, it’s not because I can’t make small talk that Cornelia sensed something was off, you know better than I do how smart she is. What you had me say to her, she could easily guess it was from you.” “I know very well how smart she is.” The man waved his hand, signalling Ben to leave, and then looked out the window. The sky was dark, and nothing could be seen outside. But the darkness would pass; the dawn was sure to come. Just then, someone turned on the lights in the yard.
