Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 1463

Maybe because he was sick, or maybe because they had been apart for nearly a year, but Jeremy became super clingy to Cornelia after they reconciled. Wherever Cornelia went, he tagged along.
He didn't socialize, and even if he did venture out, he'd be back in a jiffy. He was like Cornelia's personal accessory. He barely had any me-time or personal space.
Cornelia was worried about him, but Jeremy seemed to dig this kind of lifestyle. He said, "The time I spend with you is my happiest. I don't need personal time."
If he was away from Cornelia even for a while, he'd get antsy. He was afraid that everything he had now was just a dream, afraid that he would wake up to find that Cornelia and Hope were non-existent. Only when he was sure that they were with him, could he relax.
Cornelia suggested, "We can leave Hope with Patricia and Grandma, and I can go with you?"
Jeremy's eyes lit up. "Sure."
......
When Steven saw Jeremy and Cornelia together, he wasn't surprised. He knew Jeremy couldn't drink, so he prepared freshly squeezed juice for him. "Jeremy, this juice is for you. Hope you recover soon so we can have a drink together."
Jeremy, "Sure."
For Cornelia, Steven prepared champagne. “Cornelia, I know you can hold your liquor, let’s have a few drinks.”
Cornelia replied, “I’m still breastfeeding, so I can't drink now. You guys chat. I'll wait outside."
Jeremy held Cornelia tight as she was about to leave. "Where are you going?"
Cornelia replied, "Rosie is video calling me, and it might take a while. I'll chat with her outside, not far from you guys. If you call me, I can hear."
Jeremy was relieved, "Sure."
Watching Cornelia leave, Jeremy couldn't take his eyes off her. Steven chuckled, "Jeremy, are you too dependent on your wife?"
Jeremy looked at Steven, simply saying, "I choose to be."
Steven replied, "We only meet occasionally and you bring your wife. You know you're completely under her control, right? You don't have any personal time at all. If this continues, she'll control you even more."
Jeremy lifted his juice, took a sip, then slowly said, "Don't rush to judge me. Let me ask you, does your wife remember you?"
Hearing this, Steven downed his drink. One glass wasn't enough, he wanted another. Jeremy took his glass, "Drinking won't solve anything."
Steven replied, "Drinking doesn't solve anything, but it numbs my nerves, makes me feel better."
Jeremy asked, "Do you feel the pain now?"
Steven rolled his eyes at him. "I'm not stupid, of course. I know pain. I'm serious. Don't provoke me."
Jeremy said, "Just because your ex-wife doesn't recognize you, you're in such pain. Think about what you've done to her before, do you know how much pain your ex-wife is in?"
Mentioning the past, Steven felt regret. "I made a mistake."
Jeremy responded, "Just saying 'I made a mistake' might not solve the problem, the pain you caused her can't be erased."
Steven asked, "Then you tell me, what should I do now?"
Steven always felt that his love experience was much richer than Jeremy's. After all, Jeremy had never been in love before getting married, while he had been married for many years, definitely knowing more about running a marriage than Jeremy.
