Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 484

Chapter 484 

Marcus picked up his fork, ready to have a go at it 

Upon seeing his furrowed brows and the effort he was putting into swallowing, Cornelia found him kind of adorabile, “President Hartley, don’t force yourself if you don’t want to eat it. Not everyone likes this kind of food. I bet your wife doesn’t like it either, so no need to torture yourself 

Out of the blue, Marcus said, “If you like it, I’m sure my wife will too 

This left Cornelia speechless 

With Cornelia watching Marcus ate a few deep–fried grasshoppers. The greasy and slightly burnt food made him want to hurl the moment it touched his tongue Marcus couldn’t comprehend how Cornelia could enjoy it so much. 

Comelia brought up something Briana had said, “It’s said that these are full of nutrition. It could be good for you to have some“ 

After all, he still seemed young His physique wasn’t too bad, and there was probably still hope for him. 

Marcus asked, “You think I need to build up my strength?” 

Comelia didn’t answer. 

Marcus asked again. “Is there anything you don’t like to eat?” 

He realized that in all the time they spent together, she never seemed picky about food. She seemed content with whatever she ate 

Cornelia thought for a moment. “I don’t think there’s anything I don’t like. My grandma used to say that I was easy to feed because I wasn’t fussy” 

Though her words sounded light–hearted, Marcus instantly understood the sadness behind them. Her mother passed away shortly after she was born, and she lost her father in a car accident when she was just a few years old. These were hard blows for any child. She had to force herself to grow up and hide her vulnerability. 

Cornelia said, “Let’s go to another place for food once we’re done here.” 

Marcus replied, “Alright.” 

After they left the place, Cornelia bought some garlic–roasted oysters from a nearby stall. She loved the unique flavor, though those unaccustomed to it might not be able to stomach even a single bite. 

Cornelia said, “President Hartley, you don’t have to eat this.” 

“I’ve eaten grasshoppers, why can’t I eat this? Just the smell made Marcus feel nauseous, but he ordered one anyway, continuing to accompany Cornelia
