Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55 

Cornelia said goodnight to Marcus and then headed back to her place 

She heard a woman sobbing a few meters away from the wooden building. 

In the deep mountains, in the dead of night, with the rustling sound of leaves in the wind and a woman’s crying. All these elements together made a typical horror movie scene 

Cornelia got goosebumps all over her body and was about to run away, but her curiosity made her glance toward the sound. 

Not far away, the crying woman was sitting under a tree, with weak light shining on her through the branches. 

Cornelia gecognized her as Skyler. Zavier’s wife, who spoke sweetly and had a precious smile that made people want to protect her. 

Why was she crying alone in the middle of the night? Didn’t Zavier care about her? 

“Stop crying Tears are useless.” From the shadows Zavier’s deep voice sounded 

He was by the tree trunk, but Cornelia didn’t see him at first glance because it was too dark. 

His tone when speaking to his wife was colder and more distant than that of a stranger. He was completely different from the loving and doting Zavier she had seen during the day 

Skyler wiped her tears as if gathering courage. Zavier, let’s get a divorce!” 

“Divorce?” Zavier sneered, grabbing Skyler’s chin and lifting her head slightly so she could look him in the eye. “Skyler, do you think you have a say in ending this marriage? You’ve been mine since you schemed your way into marrying me.” 

What an authoritative and strong man! 

Cornelia silently sighed and slipped away. 

This afternoon, she had been envious of their seemingly sweet relationship, but who knew they were arguing about divorce behind closed doors? 

With more and more people getting divorced nowadays, why do so many still want to get married? 

Cornelia returned to her room 

That night, she couldn’t sleep well, and the next day she woke up close to noon, sporting two large dark circles under her eyes. 

Steven and Hannah had too much energy, making noise until midnight, seriously affecting her sleep. 

However, Steven was still energetic the following day and even joked, “Ms. Stewart, what’s the deal with those dark circles under your eyes?” 

Did he not know what happened? 

Steven looked at Marcus, “Marc, you should know why, right?” 

Marcus didn’t want to deal with him, “You’d better shut your mouth.” 

Steven raised his hands in surrender, “Alright, alright, I won’t say anything. But after such a tiring night, you should let Cornelia sleep briefly. Why get up so early?” 

His insinuation was too obvious. If Cornelia didn’t speak up, the gossip would become the truth. President Dixon, I’m just President Hartley’s assistant. Please mind your words.” 

Unexpectedly, Marcus spoke almost simultaneously with her. His voice was low, assertive, and profound. “Steven, don’t make that kind of joke about a girl.” 

“You two aren’t what I thought?” Steven still didn’t believe nothing was going on between them. Even if there weren’t now, there definitely would be in the future.
