Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1189

The mere thought of a future without Marcus made Cornelia's heart ache in a way that was just unbearable.

Marcus felt the same. He was only now realizing that emotional pain could hit harder than any physical one. This kind of heartache, it spread right down to his bones, numbing his heart as if it didn't belong to him anymore. More than anyone else, he wished he could keep his promise to Cornelia, to be with her every single day of their lives, to grow old together.

He hoped that when they were both old and grey, they could still take walks in the garden together. But he knew all too well, his time was running out. So he had to stick to his plan; there was no room for backing down.

Marcus tried to keep his pain in check, holding Cornelia's hand tightly, "Let's keep walking, alright?"

Cornelia wrapped both her hands around his, "Alright."

They walked across a broad green lawn, the ocean stretching out endlessly before them.

Celestial Chateau was in a great location, right in the heart of Riverton, with a view of the bustling city as well as the picturesque seascapes. Cornelia knew it was by the sea, but this is the first time she was seeing it. Especially now, with the setting sun casting a golden glow over the distant waters, it was breathtaking.

"Jeremy, it's so beautiful here!" Cornelia said.

"Do you like it?" Marcus looked down at her, her eyes sparkling as she took in the view. She was so beautiful, so captivating. He couldn't help but leaned down to kiss her forehead.

Cornelia's attention was drawn to him, she looked away from the view, and stood on her tiptoes to plant a soft kiss on the corner of his lips, "I love it! I love the view, but I love you even more!"

Once she was sure about her feelings, Cornelia didn't hold back, always letting him know how much she loved him. Not only did she tell him, but she wanted the whole world to know they were a couple. "You mentioned before about going public with our relationship, I had some reservations then, so I wasn't willing. But I'm ready now, I want the whole world to know about us. What do you think?"

Now, Cornelia couldn't care less about how she became President Hartley's special assistant. Now, all that mattered to her was Marcus.
