Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1058

Marcus saw Cornelia spacing out and tenderly patted her head, "Did I scare you with my words?"

Cornelia snapped back to reality, "I'm so sorry, Jeremy!"

Marcus asked, “Why are you apologizing all of a sudden?”

Cornelia said, "You helped Skyler for my sake, and ended up pissing off your friend Zavier."

Marcus said, "I didn't do it for you, I did it for Zavier."

Cornelia was puzzled, "Can you explain?"

Marcus explained, "Remember when you went to France to see Skyler and were taken away by Zavier when you left?"

Cornelia nodded, "I remember."

Marcus went on, "Skyler realized she hadn't completely escaped Zavier's watchful eye and broke down. I was supposed to pick you up but didn't find you. Instead, I stumbled upon her trying to end her own life. If I hadn't saved her, she might be gone by now."

Cornelia had no idea about this. No wonder Marcus never thought of handing Skyler back to Zavier even after they became enemies. He had sacrificed a lot. He was doing a good deed, but was misunderstood.

Marcus continued, "Skyler had given up on life. I promised to help her escape from Zavier, and that's when she found the courage to live again. I helped her escape Zavier's surveillance, but I never hid her. She was free, and could go back to Zavier whenever she wanted."
