Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 291

The intoxicating heat radiating off Marcus brushed her cheeks, his sultry, drunken voice ringing in her ears. “Darling”

Cornelia sobered up instantly She tried to push him away, but he was much bigger than her, pinning her against the door. She was stuck “Marcus, you’ve got me mixed up with someone else I’m not your wife”

“Comelia,” he called her name his voice gentle and heart stopping He reached up and pinched her chubby cheek. “You are Comelia, my wife”

Comelia was on the verge of tears “Marcus fm your assistant Comelia, not your wife Cornelia We just share the same name We’re not the same person Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

cant mistake my wife! You are my wife He stared at her, his eyes and and fierce behind his glasses, ready to devour her at any moment

“Im not! You we really got the wrong person! As Marcus leaned in even closer, close enough to kiss her Cornelia trembled in fear “Marcus, is this fair to your wife?”

Marcus paused for a moment, and Cornelia took the chance to push him with all her might

She didnt know if she was suddenly strong or he was too weak, but she managed to push him back several steps.

Marcus, drunk as a skunk, lost his balance and fell towards the floor Luckily, there was a couch behind him to catch his falling body

Cornelia rushed over to see him asleep with his eyes closed

Annoyed, she kicked him in the leg “You jerk, if you miss your wife go home and hug her. What makes you different from a jerk? I’m just your assistant, paid by you, not someone you can just grab and hug?”.

After venting her anger, Cornelia felt much better. She returned to her room, did a quick wash up, then tried to sleep.

It was late, and after all that booze, normally shed fall asleep as soon as she hit the bed. But tonight, Cornelia just couldn’t sleep

The weather was cold, and even with the heating on, Marcus could catch a cold sleeping on the couch all night

if Marcus fell sick, their itinerary would be ruined And as his assistant, she’d be the one to blame.

After a lot of thought, Cornelia decided to cover him with a blanket

She got up from her bed, went to the living room, and saw Marcus sleeping on the couch, his glasses slipping down to his nose, looking like a bum

She wanted to wake him up and tell him to go sleep in his room, but she was afraid he might do something inappropriate again. So, she went to his room, got a blanket, and covered him

After covering him with the blanket, she kicked him in the leg again, saying “You jerk, you think you can bully people just because you’re rich? I wam you, if you dare touch me again, fl make you pay

After venting, Cornelia went back to her room to sleep

She was worried that Marcus might barge into her room in the middle of the night. Though she was in bed, she couldn’t sleep

She got out of bed again, locked her door, and moved a cabinet behind it, just in case

After all that, Cornelia crawled back into bed feeling a little safer

She took out her phone and scrolled to her chat with Jeremy Their last chat was at 2.30 that afternoon when he told her he had safely arrived in Riverton They hadn’t chatted since

After some hesitation, she texted Jeremy. “Are you asleep”

It was past one in the morning Most people would be asleep. She didn’t expect Jeremy to see her message.

But she still held out hope. She hoped Jeremy was still awake. She hoped he would see her message right away. She hoped he would reply
