Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 605

Chapter 605 

Cameron handed Marcus a drink, “Marc, fancy a drink?” 

Before Marcus could respond, Cornelia stepped in front of him, ‘I’m sorry! Mr. Hartley is under the weather, no drinks for him tonight” 

Cameron’s brow furrowed a hint of annoyance creeping into his eyes. He was having a conversation with Marcus, not her place as an assistant to butt in 

But he held his tongue. He knew Marcus had a soft spot for this woman. 

Cameron forced a smile. “Ms Stewart, there’s something I want to say but not sure if it’s appropriate” 

Comelia, “If you think it’s inappropriate, then don’t say it.” 

Cameron took his time before continuing “I feel I shouldn’t say this, but I still feel the need to remind you. Don’t you think you’re meddling too much in Marc’s affairs? Whether he drinks or not should not be your concern, it should be his wife’s. Yet, here you are stepping in 

“I don’t think she’s overstepping, why do you have to make a fuss? Marcus shot Cameron an annoyed look, adding, “My wife doesn’t want me drinking” 

A warm feeling spread through Cornelia’s heart as she looked up at him. Their eyes met. 

Cornelia quickly averted her gaze, looking at the ceiling, the floor, anywhere but Marcus 

Cameron, a little embarrassed, changed the subject, “Marc, you’re okay with a woman bossing you around? It’s just a woman, any woman would do, right?” 

Any woman would do. That was what Marcus used to think. 

But now, he couldn’t imagine if the woman he had married wasn’t Cornelia. 

Marcus, “Who I marry, who I let boss me around, that’s my business, and it’s none of your concern.” 

Seeing this. Clair pushed a stunned Natalia towards Marcus, ‘Marc, Natalia’s been talking about you non stop. She says you treat her better than her own brother. Let her take care of you tonight…” 

Marcus looked down at her, and gave her a cold glance, “I’m married, I don’t need another woman’s company” 

This statement could be taken as blunt or subtle, depending on the listener’s interpretation. 

Clair, acting nonchalant, continued, “Yes, everyone knows you’re married, and we all know how in love you are with your wife Marc, why didn’t you bring your wife tonight?” 

There had been rumors among the four families that Marcus‘ wife had been unfaithful, but he had dismissed it as a misunderstanding and warned everyone against spreading the rumor 

Marcus could control what people said, but not what they thought 

Clair firmly believed that Marcus hadn’t brought his wife for a reason, either they were having problems, or there were other unsavory reasons. 

Despite Clair’s attempts at small talk, Marcus had no intention of engaging with her further, and turned to leave. 

Cornelia quickly followed him, “President Hartley…” 

Marcus turned back, “Yes?” 

Comelia nervously asked, “Would you consider accepting Natalia?” 

Marcus‘ expression turned icy, “What are you talking about?” 

Cornelia hurriedly explained, “No, not like that. I need to ask Natalia something, but her mother won’t let her speak to me, so…” 

Marcus chuckled as if he had heard something amusing, “Cornelia, do you realize what you’re asking me to do?” 

Cornelia looked at him hopefully. “Is it possible?” 

Marcus replied reluctantly, “You go find her yourself.” 

Cornelia asked, “So, I have your permission to speak to her on your behalf?”
