Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 653

hapter 653 

Cornelis herself had no clue what had just hit her. The moment she heard that his grandpa had chosen to end his own life to save grandma from more troubles, she felt as though a million needles were piercing her heart. It hurt so badly that she couldn’t control her tears 

“Cornelia.” Marcus gently wiped away her tears, “What’s up? Talk to me 

Tmjust sad Cornelia looked at him with teary eyes. “I just feel that grandpa shouldn’t have done it.” 

Marcus comforted her, “That s water under the bridge now. You don’t need to dwell on it” 

“It’s not over yet, not really because there are many people facing the same issues. We need to address it, and then solve it” Cornelia wasn’t the confrontational lype, but 

this issue had struck a nerve. 

“Did grandpa genuinely think his decision was best for grandma? Didn’t he realize how much pain it would cause her to be left alone?” 

Cornelia knew she shouldn’t blame grandpa. She wasn’t in his shoes, and she didn’t know how much pain he was in, or how desperate he must have felt 

She thought, if grandpa chose to leave because he couldn’t bear the pain and saw no hope in life, then she could understand. But if he thought his departure would lighten grandma’s burden, then he couldn’t have been more wrong. 

He must not have realized how much his leaving would shatter her. 

Marcus said, “I don’t know what he was thinking. All I know is that his leaving hit grandma hard. After he passed away, grandma lost her pillar of support and fell ill. If it wasn’t for the responsibility of the Hartley Group on her shoulders, I guess she wouldn’t have made it through that period.” 

Marcus’s words made Cornelia even sadder, “If you were grandpa, what would you do?” 

Marcus got her worries, “I won’t let myself face that kind of day Even if it does come, I’ll fight to stay alive.” 

His words slightly eased Cornelia’s mind, “Listen, you need to take care of your health. You can’t always be on the go. If you fall si doctor for treatment. You absolutely cannot do what grandpa did, and you absolutely cannot leave me behind” 

one day, you must cooperate with the 

She looked at him and said, word by word, “You once told me as Jeremy, that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with me. You have to keep your word, no breaking promises 

Marcus finally understood why Cornelia suddenly burst into tears. It must have been because of grandpa and grandma’s incident that reminded her of her own parents 

Her mother left right after she was born, and her father died in a car accident when she was five. Because of the early loss of her parents, she longed for family and cherished life and the people around her more than anyone. 

Marcus reached out and held her hand, “Cornelia, every word I’ve said to you, I meant it. I won’t break my promises.” 

Cornelia suggested, ‘Let’s make a pact.” 

Marcus had never done such a thing when he was a kid, let alone now. But since it was Cornelia, he was willing to go along with whatever she wanted, “Okay, let’s make a pact.”
