Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30 

Marcus said. “The environment here is pretty harsh, and I plan to stay here for a while longer. If you can’t adapt to the climate here, I have Ayden take you back first” 

Cornelia replied, “No problem, I can handle these difficulties.” 

Marcus called her name deeply, “Cornelia” 

Cornelia asked. “Huh?” 

Marcus said, “If something like today ever happens again, you need to protect yourself first” 

Cornelia went silent. 

She didn’t really want to do that, it was just her instinctive reaction at the time 

Maybe it was because she had been working under his leadership for so long that she always considered his feelings first in everything she did. 

After a moment of silence, Marcus spoke again, “You’re hurt, does your husband know?” 

Cornelia shook her head, “I didn’t tell him.” 

Marcus didn’t understand, “Why?” 

Cornelia explained, “I don’t want him to worry 

Marcus understood that it was due to psychological discomfort. 

He thought if his wife hadn’t betrayed him and they had maintained a normal husband–wife relationship, if she got hurt and hid it from him, he would definitely be upset. 

Marcus threw a glance at Dr. Dawson, who was still preoccupied. Left with no alternative, he kept Cornelia engaged, diverting her from the discomfort. “I’m slightly hungry, let’s grab dinner together later.” 

Cornelia hadn’t eaten well that night, and hearing him say that made her even hungrier. 

She said, “Alright.” 

Marcus immediately made a phone call to have the chef prepare dinner 

Dr. Dawson had finished treating Cornelia’s wound by then, “The bleeding has stopped, and the wound has been re–bandaged.” The water brought in the dinner just in time, and she tactfully said, Tm not hungry, you guys eat, I’ll go back to my room and clean up.” 

After Dr. Dawson left, only Cornelia and Marcus were left in the room. She couldn’t move her left hand, so Marcus helped her serve a bowl of soup. 

Cornelia felt a little embarrassed, “President Hartley, I can move my right hand, let me do it myself” 

Marcus replied, “Don’t overthink it. I don’t like owing people favors.” 

Since he said that, Cornelia didn’t refuse any further and enjoyed his service. 

She had eaten and drank her fill, but Marcus hadn’t taken a single bite, President Hartley, didn’t you say you were hungry? Why aren’t you eating?” 

Marcus replied, “1 suddenly lost my appetite.” 

Cornelia thought of something and asked directly, “Did you come here specifically to take care of me?” 

Marcus laughed, “Aren’t you afraid your husband will be jealous?” 

Cornelia replied. That’s why I wanted to ask and make sure” 

Marcus asked. ‘Do you love your husband very much?”
