Chapter 698
Marcus asked, “Did I look scary or what?”
Comelia stifled a laugh, “President Hartley, you want the truth or a polite lie?”
“No need.” Marcus let her go and headed to the third floor.
Comelia quickly followed him, “Actually, you were not scary at all. I didn’t ignore you or anything. I thought there were child snatchers in the car. I was worried that if I got too close, the bad guys would have dragged me in. That’s why I was scared. If I’d seen your face and known there was a hot guy in the car, there’s no way I’d have run off.”
Marcus stopped, “Shallow!”
Cornelia pouted, “Aren’t you just as shallow?”
Comelia continued, “If I were an ugly woman, would you still have married me? Would you still take responsibility for our marriage? I’m just saying what I think, not being all fake like you, who never say what you really think and make people guess.”
Marcus found that she was better at arguing than him. He couldn’t win. So he changed the subject, “We’re here, let’s go inside and change.”
Cornelia, “Hmph, can’t win an argument, so you change the subject.”
Marcus didn’t reply, and opened the door first. After Cornelia went in, he locked the door, pulled her into his arms, and found her lips.
He lost the verbal battle, but he had other ways to win her over.
Before, Cornelia never thought this seemingly gentle man would kiss her so passionately. It was as if he were addicted to her.
Was this the third or fourth time he’d kissed her today?
Fortunately, he didn’t keep it up for too long. As she was about to suffocate, he let her go.
Once free, Comelia quickly pulled away, glaring at him angrily, “I was just getting better, and you hurt me again. How am I supposed to face Grandma and Bri now?”
Marcus said, “I brought the medicine Dr. Lester gave you.”
Cornelia was speechless. So he didn’t just kiss her out of the blue, he was prepared.
Seeing her angry, Marcus couldn’t help but laugh again. How could Cornelia be so cute, so lovable?
Cornelia stomped her foot angrily, “I’m too embarrassed to face anyone now, and you’re still laughing.”
“We’re married, it’s normal to do some intimate things. No one will laugh at you.” He patted her in his arms, “Behave, let’s change your
clothes first.”
