Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 392

Chapter 392 

“He said his wife gets to call the shots on whether to have kids or not, and no one can force her. There are still quite a few average Joes out there who insist on having a son, as if there’s a royal throne waiting to be inherited at home. Now, look at the president of the Hartley Group. His family really does have a ton of wealth to be inherited, but what he cares about the most is his wife’s wishes.” 

“Such a rich, good–looking, and faithful man is almost impossible to find these days. His wife must have done something really good in her past life to marry him.” Replied Abigail. 

“So, you can stop dreaming.” 

“But a good man like him is exactly the kind I should hope for.” 

Zack was speechless. 

Abigail replied, “Zack, if you have something to say, spit it out. Don’t beat around the bush.” 

“I told you, Marcus is not a good guy, but none of you listened.” Zack said. 

“Alright, let’s not gossip about others. Let’s talk about you two. How are things going?” 

As soon as Cornelia brought up their situation, Abigail started to get nervous and started to give the game away. “We’re doing great, just like every other year. We’ve been eating and drinking like kings at home. I bet I’ve gained a few pounds; you better not make fun of me.” Watching Abigail’s shifty eyes and stuttering words in the video chat, Cornelia confirmed her earlier suspicion. Something had definitely gone down tonight. 

They were trying so hard to hide it from her, so it must have something to do with her. 

She was not in Rosenberg now. The only thing that could involve her would be that old business from a few years ago. Even after all these years, it was still the talk of the town, and they never had anything nice to say about her. 

Cornelia used to care about what people said about her, but not anymore. Their opinions didn’t matter to her. 

Cornelia thought for a moment and said, “Abby, Zack, if people back home are still talking about me, just ignore them. Those rumors can’t hurt me anymore.” 

Abigail felt even more indignant for her after hearing this, “It’s one thing that they don’t hurt you, but it’s not your fault at all. Who are those gossipmongers to judge you? Who do they think they are?” 

Cornelia really doesn’t care anymore, “We can’t control what others say, so why let it bother us? We should focus on our work, make money, and live our own lives.” 

“Has Jeremy been in touch with you recently?” 

Cornelia felt warm inside at the mention of Jeremy’s name, “Jeremy gave me money tonight. He even transferred all the money he’s made this year to my account. He said it’s to help me with the renovation, but actually, he just wants me to manage his money.” 

“Really?” Asked Abigail.
