Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1397

This one, really showed her bias. It also fully demonstrated Jeremy's importance in her heart. A wave of warmth surged into Jeremy's heart like a fierce river. He looked at her, seeing her courage and determination. Suddenly, he remembered what Zack had once said, "Don't hide anything from Nelly. She's stronger than you think, and she can also protect you."
Yes, Cornelia had always been brave, strong, and determined, always protecting him in her own way.
Jarvis asked, "Is he in your heart?"
Cornelia ignored Jarvis' question, her gazes seemingly only on Jeremy, "You go check your body. I'll handle things here."
Jeremy responded, "Okay."
From now on, he also wanted to trust her like today, let her do what she wanted to do, instead of doing everything for her.
Watching Jeremy leave, Cornelia finally withdrew her gaze. Jarvis said, "Your gazes were almost following him."
Cornelia looked at Jarvis seriously, "Jeremy is my husband, he and I are a family, and you are just an outsider to me. The things between me and my husband, seem to have nothing to do with you."
These words were cold and heartless, like a sharp blade that cut into Jarvis' heart with each word. Cornelia had long rejected him, making it very clear that she had no feelings for him and there was no possibility between them. Yet he remained persistently pursuing her, unwilling to let go.
He had thought about letting go, but he couldn't do it, because the seed of love in his heart was planted by her. He wanted to forget, but he couldn't forget.
Jarvis said, "I know we have no chance, I know you don't like me, but I still want to fight for myself, am I wrong?"
Cornelia replied, "You're not wrong. It's just that you fell for the wrong person."
Jarvis asked, "What is the wrong person to fall for?"
Cornelia replied, "A married woman like me is the wrong person for you to fall for."
Jarvis laughed, his smile carrying a bit of desolation, "If one can freely control his feelings, decide who he likes and doesn't like, can that still be called feelings?"
Cornelia didn't answer. Jarvis' words seemed to make sense. Just like her, when she was deceived by Jeremy, if she could freely control her feelings and not love him, she wouldn't need to be so painful. The preciousness of love perhaps lay in its unpredictability and uncontrollability.
Jarvis continued, "Cornelia, I came today to tell you that your husband's the Hartley Group is gone, and the future days may be tough. If there's anything you need my help with, just say it."
Cornelia replied, "Thanks, but I don't need it."
Jarvis interrupted her angrily, "You don't need it? I'm not asking for anything, yet you won't even let me help you. Do you still expect Marcus, a paralyzed man, to rise again?"
"What are you talking about?" Cornelia's brows furrowed, staring coldly at him, "Jarvis, if you insult him again."
"Well, another hunk appeared?" Hannah's voice suddenly interrupted Cornelia's words, also breaking their tense atmosphere.
Hannah, unaware of the specifics, walked up to Jarvis and Cornelia. "Cornelia, where did this hunk come from? It’s strange. Why do you always have so many hot guys around you? Each one is more handsome than the men from my entertainment circle."
Cornelia was still angry and didn't want to talk.
Jarvis forced a smile at Hannah, "Ms. Hannah, nice meeting you. I'm Jarvis."
Hannah had heard this name. He was a well-known family member of the Capital, "Do you know me?"
Jarvis replied, "I've heard about you long ago."
Hannah asked, "Well, have you seen any movies or TV shows I've acted in?"
