Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1310

Chapter 1310 

Justin asked, “You know Steven, right?” 

Cornelia replied, “Of course I do. He’s the big shot CEO of the Dixon Group, loaded, handsome, and young to boot. He’s always plastered over celebrity magazines, how could I not know him?” 

Justin said, “That’s not what I was getting at.” 

Cornelia asked, “Then what are you asking about?” 

Justin said, “Cornelia, you agreed to meet with me, which means you know you have a problem and you want to solve it. But now you’re not cooperating, not telling me the truth. How am I supposed to help you?” 

Cornelia asked, “Dr. Terrel, do you really think you can help me?” 

Justin replied, “I can. You have to trust me.” 

Looking at the determination in Justin’s eyes, Cornelia slowly let her smile fade, her beautiful eyes filled with endless loneliness, “Dr. Terrel, I think I’m sick.” 

Justin said, “I know.” 

Trembling with emotion, Cornelia said, “I can’t control myself, I can’t. Dr. Terrel, please help me, save my child!” 

Justin held her hand, patting it gently, “Cornelia, as long as you trust me and tell me what’s bothering you, I can help you. We can fight this sickness.” 

Cornelia asked, “Tell you what?” 

Justin said, “What’s eating you up inside.” 

Cornelia hesitated, and then slowly said, “Do you remember Marcus?” 

Justin replied, “I remember.” 

Cornelia said, “He wasn’t just my boss, he was my husband. But we’re divorced now.” 

Justin said, “I know.” 

Cornelia asked, “You know? Of course, you’re his hire. How could you not know? I’m the only one who didn’t know.” 

Justin asked, “Are you worried because you heard he’s dead?” 

Cornelia laughed, “Worried about him? Do you know what he’s done? How could a man like that deserve my worry?” 

Justin said, “Just tell me, yes or no.” 

Cornelia laughed again. Somewhere along the way, she’d learned to mask her true feelings with a smile, “He was having an affair during our marriage. The thought of it makes me sick.” 

“Cornelia, if you want to get better, don’t avoid the question. You have to confront it head-on.” Justin said, his eyes boring into her as if he could see right through her. 

Under his gaze, Cornelia felt exposed, “It’s ridiculous, isn’t it? He did something so repulsive, but hearing of his death still makes me sad. How did I become like this?” 

Hearing Cornelia’s admission, Justin let out a sigh of relief, “That’s a normal reaction. There’s no shame in it.” 

Cornelia said, “But I feel ashamed.”
