Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 162

Marcus asked, "Is there anything you need help with?"

Cornelia replied, "Thanks for your concern, President Hartley, but it's just some personal stuff."

The conversation between the two ended with this answer. Just then, the chef brought in breakfast.

Marcus sat down first, and Cornelia took a seat across from him.

The breakfast is very rich. Marcus had specifically asked the chef to prepare it for her, but Cornelia didn't touch it, "Not to your liking?"

"I had a late dinner last night, and I'm not very hungry now. My appetite isn't great, I just want some porridge." Cornelia scooped herself a bowl, and it tasted even better than she had imagined.

Both dishes were from the same recipe, so Cornelia wondered how the chef's version could be so delicious.

Cornelia asked, "President Hartley, could I learn how to make this from your chef?"

Marcus replied, "If you want to eat it, let her cook it for you. If you want to learn, let her teach you." Finally, there was something that suited her taste, and Marcus abandoned the idea of changing chefs.

Cornelia said, "Thank you, President Hartley!"

Hearing her cheerful tone, Marcus smiled and said nothing more.

The two ate quietly until Cornelia's personal phone rang, breaking the silence.

Cornelia thought it was Zack and Abigail coming to pick her up, so she happily took out her phone. But when she saw the caller ID as "Mr. Ryan," her expression changed instantly, "Mr. Ryan, what's up?"

Ryan said, "Ms. Stewart, your husband has picked out a house to give you. Today, I'll accompany you to transfer the ownership."

"No need to trouble yourself, President Hartley, my friends are coming to pick me up." Cornelia said and prepared to leave.

Marcus said, "Tonight, I'm taking my wife to dinner. Please book a restaurant according to your preference."

Cornelia agreed, "Okay." Since Marcus had mentioned that his wife was also from Rosenberg, she didn't give it much more thought.

After getting into Zack's car, Cornelia thought for a moment. There were many restaurant options in Riverton, but the top two were Pinnacle Palate and Culinary Crest. Both had very high prices, perfect for wealthy people like Marcus.

Cornelia had never been to either of these restaurants, so she didn't know which one had better food. So she asked, "Zack, Abby, Pinnacle Palate or Culinary Crest, which one do you think is better?"

Abigail replied, "Rich lady, did your boss give you another bonus? Are you treating us to such an expensive place?"

Cornelia rolled her eyes and said, "A meal there costs tens of thousands. I'm not an idiot. I don't have that much money to throw around anyway, so why would I go to such a place? I'm just helping my boss and his wife book a restaurant."
