Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1443

Cornelia, [Dr. Lester, I owe you one!]
Dr. Lester, [We're pals, no need for thanks.]
Cornelia, [I'm thinking of whipping up some grub tonight. Fancy joining me for dinner?]
Dr. Lester, [I don't plan on being a third wheel.]
Ever since Cornelia and Jeremy patched things up, Jeremy's health hadn't been kept under wraps from her. So, she and Dr. Lester often needed to talk about Jeremy's condition. Whatever medical tests Jeremy needed, Dr. Lester always gave Cornelia the heads up. It was more efficient than dealing directly with Jeremy.
Dr. Lester, [Marc needs a full-body check-up tomorrow afternoon. This check-up is critical. You gotta be there with him.]
Cornelia, [What kind of check-up?]
Dr. Lester, [I'll fill you in on the details tomorrow. For now, just know that this check-up is super important. You absolutely can't miss it.]
Cornelia, [Alright.]
She sensed some unease in Dr. Lester's words but didn't press him further. No matter how tough the road ahead, she was sticking with Jeremy.
After sending the message, she pocketed her phone. Looking up, she saw that Jeremy was wearing a sour expression. Cornelia smiled at him. "What's up?"
Jeremy, "You've been ignoring me for five minutes. Five whole minutes."
Cornelia was amused by his petulance, and it instantly lifted her spirits, "I'm sorry, honey. Can you forgive me?"
Jeremy, "Well, since you apologized right away, I guess I can let it slide."
Cornelia again draped her arm over his left, even though he still couldn't feel it. But she believed he could feel her presence. "It's still early. Let's hit the supermarket. I'm thinking of making dinner tonight."
"Okay." Jeremy reached up, lightly pinching her bun. He seemed to be unable to let it go. When she first started working for him, all he wanted to do was touch her bun. But since he didn't know she was his wife then, he could only long for her in his heart. Now, he could openly touch her bun.
Cornelia, "Can you stop messing with my bun? If you keep this up, my hair's gonna get all messy."
Jeremy, "If it gets messy, I'll help you comb it."
Cornelia, "Alright. You need to master the technique. From now on, my bun is your responsibility."
Jeremy, "Okay."
Cornelia, "Think about what you want to eat."
Jeremy, "As long as I'm eating with you, I'm good."
When she first started working for him, he was a very picky eater. He didn't eat this, and he didn't eat that, which made her job really difficult. But now, to get along better with her, he had changed his eating habits.
Sometimes, Cornelia thought that if it were her, she would never be able to do what Jeremy did. His care for her went beyond the little things in life. It was so much more.
Cornelia smiled at him. "Okay."
......
After crossing the road and walking a few hundred meters along the riverside park, they could see a large supermarket. They also lived in this area, so it was super convenient for them to buy ingredients.
Cornelia rented the house. She thought Jeremy was broke, so she only told him after she had rented the place.
Jeremy told her not to worry about money, and that he had enough funds, but she didn't believe him. So, he didn't say much more. When they got back to Riverton, he took her to see the place in person. Then she would know that her man was not as incapable as she imagined.
Even though the Hartley Group was no more, he had the ability to build a business empire even stronger than the Hartley Group.
