Chapter 778 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- Stepping out of the club, Cornelia immediately asked Jeremy, “Does Courtney really plan to kidnap Hope?” Jeremy clasped her hand tightly, his voice carrying a hint of bitter raspiness. “Cornelia, I’m sorry.” Cornelia knew why he was apologizing. Her heart ached as she opened her arms and held him tightly. “Jeremy…” He thought she was worried about Hope and gently stroked her back. “I promised to keep you and our child safe. Hope will be okay. Don’t be scared.” “With you around, I know Hope will be fine. I’m not scared; I’m just hurt.”
- Cornelia took his hand and cupped it against her face. “Jeremy, don’t ever blame yourself for anything Courtney does.” “Cornelia…” Jeremy hadn’t expected her to say that. No, he should have anticipated it. Cornelia had always been so understanding. Despite all she had been through, she was like a little ray of sunshine, illuminating his life path and warming his world. She looked at him and said, “Courtney is Courtney, and you are you. You are two completely separate entities. The Marcus she birthed is dead. Now, you are a reborn Jeremy, with no ties to her.”e2 Jeremy nodded. “Yeah.” Cornelia held his hands tight. “Leave Courtney to me. I won’t let her disrupt our lives or threaten Hope’s safety.”
- Jeremy responded, “I can handle it.” Cornelia insisted, “Jeremy, trust me.” He looked at her, saw the determination in her eyes, and nodded. “Okay” Cornelia gave him a reassuring smile. “Let’s go home.” Jeremy agreed, “Alright.” Cornelia sneakily glanced back. Courtney, a mother, had never fulfilled her maternal duties to her son, Marcus, and daughter, Briana. Previously, Courtney had a share of the Hartley Group’s dividends. The annual dividends were massive, enough for her to squander with her lover and their children.
