Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 

Marcus had no choice but to take off her right sleeve first, then carefully remove the left one 

The down jacket and cardigan sweater were easy to take off, but if he took off her undershirt, she’d be completely exposed. Marcus looked at her and said, “I’m gonna have to tear your 

sleeve off 

Cornelia blinked, “Can you really do that?” 

Marcus steadied her wounded arm with one hand while the other tugged harshly, ripping the sleeve at its seam. He displayed a strength far greater than Cornelia had anticipated 

In an instant, the wound on her fair arm was exposed It was about the size of a fist, her skin all smashed up, and blood kept flowing out. 

Marcus was shocked, but Cornelia was still smiling, like a fool, as if she didn’t know pain. “President Hartley, you’re quite strong.” 

Without hesitation, Marcus tore open his white shirt and wrapped her wound round and round 

Cornelia clenched her teeth in pain, and tears began to flow because of the pain… 

Marcus said, if it hurts, just scream. No one will laugh at you.” 

Cornelia’s lips were bitten red, but she still tried to smile. This pain is nothing. I can bear it.” 

Ever since he met her, she always seemed to be smiling, rarely showing any other expressions. She was very suitable to be his assistant. 

But at this moment, Marcus found her smile very irritating Why do you have to endure it?” 

Why endure it? 

It seemed that no one had ever asked Cornelia this question. She vaguely remembered that after her father died in a car accident, people around her often mocked her as a jinx. That’s when she learned to endure, she guessed 

Her grandmother had been taking care of her, in addition to her own son, and it had been tough. She didn’t want to cause her grandmother any trouble, so she learned to endure. 

Cornelia just smiled and didn’t answer. 

Marcus asked again, “Are there any other injuries?” 

She was wearing thick clothes, and Marcus couldn’t visually confirm if there were any other wounds on her body. 

Cornelia shook her head, “No.” 

Marcus helped her put on her down jacket. “Let’s go back now, and have a doctor check you out later.” 

“Okay,” Cornelia nodded, and Marcus scooped her up. 

When they had just teleported, he had carried her so fast that she didn’t even have time to react before he put her down. Now it seemed he intended to carry her all the way back to the 

hotel 

Cornelia was startled and struggled to get down. “President Hartley, we’re both married. This isn’t right. Please put me down.” 

Marcus’s handsome face was cold. “So by your logic, male doctors cant treat female patients?” 

Cornelia said. “That’s not the same thing at all” 

Marcus ignored her and continued to carry her forward. 

Cornelia spoke again, “President Hartley, you may not care about your reputation, but I do. It’s different for girls and guys. When a man does some things, it’s called being flirtatious. But when a woman does it, shes called a slut.”
