Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 119

She was supposed to be his wife, but he couldn't tell her, and that made him feel really uncomfortable. "He gave this to you, so just take it."

Cornelia corrected him, "It's not for me, it's for your wife."

Before she could finish, Marcus took the box, pulled out the bracelet inside, and quickly put it on her wrist. "No one is more suitable to accept this gift than you."

He was so fast that Cornelia didn't even have time to react before the bracelet was already on her wrist.

She hurriedly tried to take it off, but Marcus said, "She won't wear something someone else has worn."

Cornelia knew who "she" was. So he didn't accept it because she had worn the bracelet.

She felt her heart was stabbed by something, very painful, but the pain came and went quickly.

Marcus and her were just in an employer-employee relationship. It was normal for the boss not to like things worn by subordinates. How he treated her didn't really matter. She showed a bright smile, "Then I'll thank President Hartley for the generous gift."

As she smiled and used words like "generous gift," Marcus couldn't tell if she was serious or joking.

"It's late, get some rest." After saying that, he turned and went upstairs.

Cornelia started to walk back, then remembered something, "President Hartley, don't forget to take your medicine."

Marcus paused, then gently replied, "Okay."

No matter how she cared for him, she couldn't deny that she did care him.

Back in her room, Cornelia looked at the bracelet on her wrist, being unsure of what to do with it.

As she was struggling with how to handle the gift that didn't belong to her, Ben sent her a message, "Cornelia, what did President Hartley give you?"

Annoyed, Cornelia replied, "He wants to send me to meet God."

Ben, "Rest in peace!"

If there were some differences in their looks and status, others might say some unpleasant things.

But if he loved his wife enough, what did it matter what others said?

"What are you thinking about?"

Cornelia was so lost in thought that she didn't notice when Marcus finished speaking and returned to her side.

She shook her head and said, "I wasn't thinking about anything."

Marcus said, "If there's something bothering you, just tell me. No need to keep it inside."

Cornelia replied, "I just hope that you and your wife can be together forever, and not let other people's gossip affect your relationship."

Marcus smiled and asked, "Do you think I'm the kind of man who would easily change because of other people's gossip?"
