Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1216

Chapter 1216 

Her phone had been silent all night. Even though Cornelia didn’t come home, Marcus didn’t call to check on her, didn’t even return a single message. 

Cornelia picked up her phone, found Marcus contact, and quickly typed in Jeremy, didn’t you realize I didn’t come home last night? Or do you just not give a damn whether I come home or not?] 

The message was ready to go Cornelia rechecked it, then hit send 

Marcus was always an early bird, he should be awake by now. She stared at the phone, waiting for his reply. 

But, the reply never came, not even when her eyes began to throb with fatique. He didn’t return her messagel 

Cornelia took a deep breath, trying to suppress the frustration welling up inside her, but to no avail. It felt like there was a ball of fire in her chest, ready to explode. She hastily stood up, but her head spun from staying up all night and she fell back onto the chair. 

Cornelia steadied herself, waiting to recover before slowly standing up again. She did a quick wash and put on some lotion, then hurriedly went downstairs. 

Granny Luisa was already up, doing her morning exercises due to her old age. 

“Nelly, good morning!” Granny Luisa said. 

“Morning! I’m going to check on Marc at his company” Cornelia said 

Granny Luisa chuckled, “Only left Marc for a night and you’re already missing him?” 

Cornelia nodded. “Yeah, missing him.” 

Granny Luisa giggled. “Then off you go. I’ll have the driver take you” 

“I can drive myself. Please have the driver take Patricia back to Celestial Chateau later. Comelia replied. 

“Alright.” Granny Luisa said 

Cornelia immediately drove to the Hartley Group headquarters. She didn’t know that Ayden had called Marcus as soon as she left, “President Hartley, Cornelia is on her way to the Hartley Group HQ” 

Dr. Lester took the call for Marcus as Marcus was getting an IV and couldn’t move his hand. So Dr. Lester switched to speakerphone and Marcus naturally heard Ayden’s 

words. 

“Marc, I gotta tell you, your body can’t take any more stress. You can’t leave this bed today, no matter what.” Dr. Lester said. 

Marcus, however, tried to pull out the needle 

Dr. Lester hurriedly stopped him, “I get it, you don’t want Cornelia to know you’re sick. But if you just let the company tell her you’re on a business trip, wouldn’t that solve everything?” 

Marcus ignored him, pulled out the needle and got out of bed, “To the company. Get Tahlia” 

The Hanley Group was strict about security. Once an employee left, their card was revoked and they couldn’t enter the company again. 

Cornelia had handed in her card the day she quit. She thought her face would be enough to get in, but the security guard stopped her at the door. The security guard looked at her like he didn’t know her, “No outsiders allowed inside the company. Please step back.”
