Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153 

Steven called out, I’m just out here in the corridor, who are you on the phone with?” 

Then he pushed the door open and walked in, “Zavier’s wife hasnt recovered yet,, and now your wife is sick too?” 

Marcus asked, “What brings you guys down the mountain too?” 

Steven rolled his eyes. “You can’t bear to leave your blind date wife, let alone Zavier leaving Skyler behind. He’s probably hugging a sleeping Skyler and bawling his eyes out” 

Marcus asked, “How about the person I’m looking for?” 

Steven replied, “He’s overseas at a psychology conference, won’t be back until around the 10th Get his travel expenses ready, and Fill have him fly straight to Riverton when he’s done.” 

Marcus simply responded, “Alright” 

Steven’s gaze shifted to Cornelia, nestled in Marcus’s arms. 

Marcus quickly covered Cornelia with his jacket. “Are you asking for a poke in the cye?” 

Steven smirked, “See how nervous you are. I’ve got a wife, I’m not eyeing yours. But I didn’t think in my life, I would be able to see you nervous about a woman.” 

Marcus, with a stern tone, shot back, “Get out.” 

But instead of leaving. Steven took a seat on the couch, ‘Marc, tell me, is being married better than being single? 

Marcus remained silent. 

Is being married better than being single? 

Perhaps no!! 

When you’re single, you only look out for yourself, never having to worry about any woman. 

But since being married, every move Cornelia makes seems to tug at his heartstrings, his mind no longer fully under his own control. 

Having his emotions controlled by someone else is a major no–no for the boss of the Hartley Group. It’s something that should never happen to him, Marcus. Yet, here it is happening. 

It’s not a pleasant experience, but as a man, he has to step up to the responsibility of taking care of and protecting her 

Steven asked, “What’s with the furrowed brow?” 

Before Marcus could respond, Cornelia shifted slightly in his arms, he immediately covered her ears, “Steven, quit yapping, she’s trying to sleep. Beat it!” 

Steven didn’t need a verbal answer from Marcus; he already got the response he was seeking. Shaking his head, he chuckled, “Keep playing it cool, mate. I’d love to see how long you can keep it up.” 

He wouldn’t want to end up like Zavier. That he would definitely make fine of him 

Just as Steven left, Cornelia’s phone started vibrating in her bag. Not wanting to disturb her, Marcus quickly pulled it out, intending to hang up the call.
