Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 153

Steven called out, "I'm just out here in the corridor, who are you on the phone with?"

Then he pushed the door open and walked in, "Zavier's wife hasn't recovered yet,, and now your wife is sick too?"

Marcus asked, "What brings you guys down the mountain too?"

Steven rolled his eyes, "You can't bear to leave your blind date wife, let alone Zavier leaving Skyler behind. He's probably hugging a sleeping Skyler and bawling his eyes out."

Marcus asked, "How about the person I'm looking for?"

Steven replied, "He's overseas at a psychology conference, won't be back until around the 10th. Get his travel expenses ready, and I'll have him fly straight to Riverton when he's done."

Marcus simply responded, "Alright."

Steven's gaze shifted to Cornelia, nestled in Marcus's arms.

Marcus quickly covered Cornelia with his jacket, "Are you asking for a poke in the eye?"

Steven smirked, " See how nervous you are. I've got a wife, I'm not eyeing yours. But I didn’t think in my life, I would be able to see you nervous about a woman."

Marcus, with a stern tone, shot back, "Get out."

But instead of leaving, Steven took a seat on the couch, "Marc, tell me, is being married better than being single?"

Marcus remained silent.

Is being married better than being single?

Perhaps not!

Just as Steven left, Cornelia's phone started vibrating in her bag. Not wanting to disturb her, Marcus quickly pulled it out, intending to hang up the call.

But when he saw the incoming video call was from "Granny", Marcus had to answer it for Cornelia, to prevent the old woman from thinking wildly.

Once the call was connected, Granny Rebecca asked anxiously, "Nelly, are you okay?"

Just as he thought, Granny Rebecca became suspicious because of Marcus's phone call, so she called Cornelia to make sure everything was fine.

Marcus replied, "Granny, it's me. Nelly was exhausted last night and she's still asleep."

Marcus was half-lying down with Cornelia in his arms, and the camera captured Cornelia's face snuggled against his strong chest.

This view looked more and more ambigous!
