Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1175

Abigail popped the question, "Zack, what's got you strutting around like a peacock?"

Zack shot back, "Marcus is just a Joe Schmo, he can't always be the head honcho. Maybe one day we'll get a leg up on him."

Abigail scoffed, "Are you still in La La Land? To outdo the Hartley Group, we've gotta hustle like there's no tomorrow, and even then it's a long shot."

Just when they were about to get into a spat, Cornelia jumped in to mediate, "Whether we can beat them or not is beside the point. What matters is this afternoon. The big cheese from Foriver Entertainment is hightailing it to Riverton, probably scared someone else will beat them to the punch. I bet they want to ink a deal today. Remember to take a lawyer when you go to negotiate."

Zack asked, "Alright, you got any special requests?"

Cornelia replied, "I have a lot of faith in Foriver Entertainment. Even if their offer is a bit short, I'm game to sign with them."

Zack and Abigail understood where Cornelia was coming from. Her comic was her labor of love, her baby. As parents, they naturally wanted to find the best home for their baby. Whoever Cornelia signed the comic rights over to, essentially that's the home she picked for her "baby".

Zack and Abigail chimed in, "We're on the same page."

Cornelia knew they had her best interests at heart, "I love you guys!"

Zack quipped, "Love me? Then how can you stand to hurt me?"

Cornelia was puzzled, "What did I do to hurt you?"

Zack said, "We didn't finish talking about last night."

"What? Zack, what are you... Hello? What's up with the signal?" Cornelia babbled on, moving the phone away and then hung up the video call.

Zack sent a message in their group chat: [Cornelia, we're done!]

After finishing the stew, she had two fried eggs and a cup of coffee.

Seeing Cornelia enjoying typical Rosenberg breakfast, Grandpa Augustine decided to find a chef who could whip up Rosenberg cuisine. He asked Cornelia, "Nelly, did Granny Rebecca like Rosenberg food?"

Cornelia nodded, "Granny Rebecca loved it. Grandpa Augustine, let me tell you, especially these beef stew, no one could make it better than Granny Rebecca."

Grandpa Augustine asked, "Granny Rebecca could make beef stew?"

Cornelia confirmed, "And they were scrumptious."

Grandpa Augustine asked again, "What else could she make?"

Cornelia said, "Granny Rebecca was a whizz at beef stew and barbecue pork chops. I remember when I was little, when our neighbors threw parties, they couldn't afford to host it at a hotel and would cook at home. Granny Rebecca was the go-to person for cooking. Everyone loved her beef stew and barbecue pork chops."
