Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 970

Chapter 970

Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out the door, a strong hand reached out and took the bag from her hand.

Cornelia looked up and seeing who it was, she gave a slight smile,

"Didn't I tell you to go upstairs first? What are you doing here?" Marcus replied, "I wanted to walk home with you.”

Unable to resist his direct confession, Cornelia took the bag from

Tahlia's hand and led her forward, "Let me formally introduce you, Natalia has changed her name to Tahlia. From now on, she's my little sister, and yours too.’

"Hello, Mr. Hartley!” Tahlia greeted.

Thanks to her relationship with Cornelia, Marcus had grown fond of the little girl he previously disliked, "Hello. Make sure you listen to your sister.’

"Okay. I'll go find Zack." After exchanging greetings, Tahlia quickly ran off, clearly avoiding Marcus. She didn't want to leave a bad impression on him and Cornelia.

Marcus tried to take the bag from Cornelia again, but she quickly dodged him, saying, "The bag's really light, I can carry it. You should tone down your intimidating vibes in front of Tahlia. She shouldn't be scared of you."

Marcus asked, "Am I really that scary?"

Cornelia couldn't deny it. She had been scared of him when they first started working together, "You know you can be pretty intimidating. I remember one time you threatened to throw me into the Riverton river to feed the fishes."

Marcus replied, "I didn't know you were my wife then."

Cornelia retorted, "So if I wasn't your wife, you could just toss me into the Riverton river to feed the fishes?"

Marcus said, "I'm sorry."

The old lady replied, "Twenty eight bucks."

Cornelia said, “Alright, I'll take one.’ She then prepared to pay.

The old lady was quick to stop her, "How can you buy flowers for yourself? Even if you're married, you still need some romance in life. It should be your husband buying you flowers.’

Cornelia replied, "It's just a bouquet. It's okay.’

The old lady continued, "What do you mean ‘just a bouquet’? Every bouquet, every sweet word is crucial in marriage. Do you know why some couples divorce after a few years of marriage?"

Cornelia didn't respond.

The old lady explained, "That's because when two people are together for a long time, they feel the freshness has gone from their life. But this freshness isn't innate, it's something you two need to create together."
