Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 545

Chapter 545 

Marcus didn’t expect Cornelia to bring up Jeremy out of the blue. He felt a bit jumpy. “Why are you suddenly mentioning him?” 

Comelia cracked a smile. “Just want to know more about him, that’s all” 

Her smile was forced, and Marcus noticed but didn’t think much of it, I’ve told you, Jeremy and I are tight. If you need to reach him but don’t feel comfortable doing so, you 

can tell me about it.” 

Cornelia asked, “Jeremy comes from a run–of the mill family, not exactly a household name in Riverton. How did you two meet?” 

Marcus calmly explained. “My grandma and his grandina were friends. They often took us out together. So, we’ve known each other since we were kids” 

“I see Cornelia responded softly, then asked, “What about your wife? When you are hospitalized, has she came to see you?” 

Marcus replied. “She didn’t know I was sick initially, but she came as soon as she found out” 

Cornelia was a bit unsure Was he talking about her? 

She averted her gaze to look out the window. The outside was pitch–dark, just like her mood. She couldn’t see anything, and didn’t know which way was out 

Before she visited Marcus, many pieces of evidence and coincidences had already hinted at Marcus and Jeremy being the same person. But she didn’t want to believe it. She wanted to hear from Marcus himself that he wasn’t Jeremy. So, she came to see him, holding on to that glimmer of hope. 

However, once she was here, she didn’t have the courage to confront him directly. How ridiculous! 

“Cornelia, what’s up with you? Marcus noticed something was off about Cornelia today 

Cornelia turned back to him, “There are some things I can’t wrap my head around. President Hartley, can you help clear them up?” 

Marcus said, “Shoot.” 

Cornelia asked, “You can’t stand your wife or girlfriend cheating on you, but would you cheat on them?” 

Marcus didn’t understand why she asked this, but still answered firmly. “No.” 

No! 

He was very adamant about it. Then what were those intimate acts he had in bed with Natalia the other day? 

Maybe he genuinely didn’t consider that as cheating. Natalia was just one of his suitors, and if a suitor took the initiative, he would accept it. 

Thinking about this, Cornelia laughed again, “What do you think is the most important thing in a marriage?” 

Marcus had thought about this question before, “I believe it should be honesty, openness, mutual understanding, and tolerance.” 

Honesty! Openness! 

He talked a good game, but had he ever been sincere to her?
