Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419 

Steven was as reliable as a chocolate teapot, and Zavier, who couldn’t even keep his wife around, was even less dependable. 

Marcus was left with no choice but to think of Lucas, but their marital situations were as different as night and day. 

Lucas and Rosie were pals since diaper days, their families had them betrothed from an early age. So they simply tied the knot when they came of age 

After much thought, Marcus’s only option was his one and only female friend, Sallie. Girls knew girls better after all. 

He gave Sallie a ring, and her response was no better than Steven’s, “President Hartley, aren’t you supposed to be spooning your wife at this hour? Why are you calling me?” 

Marcus kept mum. 

Sallie said, “Don’t tell me Cornelia doesn’t know you’re her hubby?” 

Marcus muttered, “Hmm.” 

Sallie sighed, “Spill the beans, what do you need my help with this time?” 

Marcus, with all the seriousness, asked the question he hated the most, “Why did you have the hots for me back then? What about me tickled your fancy?” 

Sallie rolled her eyes, “You turned me down, now you want me to help you woo your wife. I can swallow that. But now you even want to know why I liked you, are you treating me like I’m chopped liver?” 

Facing Sallie’s barrage, Marcus calmly dropped a bomb, “I just need a confidence boost.” 

“You’re the big cheese of the Hartley Group, and you’re telling me you lack confidence? Who would buy that?” Sallie was fuming, but then a thought struck her, “Marc, do you really have a thing for Cornelia?” 

Marcus said, “She is my wife.” 

Sallie said, “Are you in denial about your feelings for her? Or do you not understand what it’s like to be head over heels?” 

Sallie met Marcus in their freshman year, she was smitten with him throughout college. She spent four years getting to know everything about Marcus, his likes and dislikes.
