Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 454

Chapter 454 

No doubt, Cornelia would go for Briana, “President Hartley, if you’ve got nothing else on my plate, Ill head out with Briana for some grub.” 

After Christmas in Paris with them, Briana vanished into thin air. Cornelia hadn’t heard from her in a while 

Dealing with Skyler’s stuff and work, Cornelia didn’t spare a thought on where Briana had been Seizing this opportunity, she would grill Briana on her recent whereabouts. Even though Marcus Hartley was reluctant, he respected Cornelia’s choice and could only watch them depart. 

On the way. Briana was yapping non–stop, dragging Comelia along. She’d been country–hopping, hanging out with friends after leaving Paris. In short, Briana’s life was a wild ride. Something Cornelia, an average joe, could hardly fathom. 

As Briana rambled, Cornelia listened attentively. She occasionally questioned about new things Briana mentioned. 

Cornelia’s inquiries would set Briana off on another long–winded story. 

It was baffling how their parents produced two kids with polar opposite personalities, one a chatterbox, the other taciturn. 

About half an hour later, they reached their destination. Cornelia discovered not only Briana but also Natalia would join the lunch, who had a beef with her since day one. 

Today, Natalia greeted her warmly, “Cornelia, I owe you an apology for the nasty things I’ve said. I asked Briana to set up this meeting so I can apologize face to face.” 

Cornelia glanced at Briana, who was visibly sheepish, “Cornelia, I didn’t mean to keep it from you.” 

“Really?” Cornelia wasn’t upset. She was just messing with Briana 

Briana hurriedly explained, “Natalia and I have been thick as thieves since we were little. It’s been tough for me, being stuck in the middle of you two, two people I really care about. I was afraid you wouldn’t come if you knew she was involved, so I didn’t tell you” 

“Briana, I’ll let it slide this time. Just be upfront with me next time so it won’t be awkward, alright?” Deciding to stay, Cornelia agreed to dine with them. 

At the table, Natalia poured three drinks, handing one to Cornelia, “Cornelia, I’m sincerely sorry. If you accept my apology, please drink this.” 

“I drove here. If I drink, I can’t drive back Cornelia poured herself some tea and finished it in one gulp. “There’s no bad blood between us. As long as you stop stirring the pot, I’ll let bygones be bygones.” 

Natalia had prepared herself for Cornelia not forgiving her easily, so she was surprised when Cornelia let it go after a few words. 

“Thank you so much, Cornelia!” She raised her glass, ready to down the drink in one go. 

Cornelia snatched the glass from her, “If you can’t handle your liquor, don’t push yourself. Have some juice instead” 

Natalia was a looker with a sweet voice. As long as she wasn’t causing trouble, her looks and voice made her a darling. 

Stunned, Natalia broke into a smile, “Thank you!”
