Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 58

Her phone and purse were on the passenger seat so she couldn't get them.

Cornelia watched helplessly as the car drove out of town onto the coastal highway.

About an hour later, the car arrived at the beach, and they switched to a speedboat.

After a dozen minutes on the speedboat, they arrived at Pacific Island.

Everyone in Riverton knew that Pacific Island was the Hartley family's private island, with a world-famous luxurious estate.

After twists and turns, the two burly men brought Cornelia to a small building. From one side of the building, you could see a large lawn, which ended at a cliff, and beyond that, the endless sea.

On the lawn was a large tent with chairs under it, and a woman was leisurely drinking tea.

Before seeing this person clearly, Cornelia guessed that this woman might be Marcus' mother, Courtney Kamp-Hartley.

But why would Courtney want to see her?

The two men brought Cornelia to the woman, "Ma'am, we've brought her."

"Alright, you may leave now." Courtney looked at Cornelia and smiled. "Ms. Stewart, you don't mind me inviting you to my home in this manner, do you?"

Her skin was well-maintained, her makeup delicate, and she looked elegant and beautiful. You couldn't tell she was already in her fifties.

"Mrs. Kamp, what do you want with me?" Cornelia did mind being "invited" like this, but what could she do?

Some rich people think they can do whatever they want because of their money. Cornelia even believed that if she angered the woman before her, she could easily have her thrown into the sea.

Courtney smiled and said, "Ms. Stewart, please have a seat."

Her mind raced, and she could only think of one possibility: Courtney might also think she had improper thoughts about Marcus.

She calmly replied, "President Hartley has always been one of the most wanted men in Riverton. Most single women want to marry him. How could there be no girls who like him?"

"Do you have feelings for him? Would you like to become his wife?" Courtney looked at Cornelia with a smile, giving her a kind and elder-like feeling. "You can tell me the truth. If you have feelings for him, I will support him marrying you, and we can become family."

Cornelia was not a newcomer to society. She knew this was a trap. Besides, she had never thought about marrying Marcus. "Mrs. Kamp, I am President Hartley's assistant. Our interactions are work-related, and I have no feelings for him beyond our professional relationship."

"What do you mean, 'feelings beyond a professional relationship'?" Courtney sighed. "Love is the most wonderful thing in the world and an uncontrollable emotion. How can you describe it as something beyond a professional relationship?"

How often did she have to say it before she would understand that she had no feelings for Marcus?

Cornelia had no choice but to bring up her husband again. "Mrs. Kamp, I am married and love my husband very much."
