Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1012

She lifted her head to meet a pair of threatening eyes, and it scared her so much that she forgot to breathe for a moment. She kept quiet, and Cornelia paid no mind to her. Grabbing Marcus, she was ready to leave, "Are you coming with me to pick up Tahlia from Abby's or going to my place first?"

Marcus, "I'll wait for you here. You go get her."

Cornelia, "Alright. People here love to gossip, if you hear anything, just ignore them."

Marcus just smiled, "Sure."

After Cornelia left, Marcus quickly went back to the woman. He looked at her, "Didn't you know that several families in your neighborhood have moved out?"

Leila and Marina, Orlando's family, sold their houses at a low price and hurriedly moved out a few days ago. It looked like they were fleeing.

The neighbors said that Orlando had committed a crime and his family were so ashamed that they quickly sold their house at a low price and several families quickly left Rosenberg.

The woman never doubted these words before. But now, hearing his tone, it seemed that things weren't that simple.

The woman clenched her fists tightly and looked at Marcus with fear, "Did they move because of you? What are you trying to do?"

Marcus laughed coldly, "Are you thinking of moving too?"

The woman quickly shook her head. The neighborhood was old and the house prices were low. The money from selling her house wouldn't even be enough for a down payment on a new one. She didn't have a salary, her family was living off her husband's meager wage. They were already struggling, and she had no money to get a better house.

Marcus, "If you don't want to move, do as I say."

The woman didn't know what she should do, so she just nodded, "I'll do as you say."

......

When Cornelia reached Abigail's house, she knocked on the door but there was no answer. She called Abigail and found out everyone was looking for her.

Upon receiving her call, Abigail suddenly started crying, "Smelly Nelly, I was so scared when I couldn't find you. Do you have any idea how terrified I was?"
