Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1249

Maybe it was the booze, but Cornelia couldn't stop talking, "Besides, we're young, good-looking, and well-off. If our current partners aren't cutting it, we can just find new ones. Grandpa Augustine used to say, the next man after a bad one is always better."

Hannah hadn't known Cornelia for long, but she knew her better than most. She could see through Cornelia's façade, "Are you still hung up on President Hartley?"

"Nonsense! Who says I'm hung up on him? How could I possibly be hung up on that scoundrel!" Cornelia said.

Cornelia denied it vehemently, pouring herself another drink and downing it in one gulp, "How could I possibly be hung up on a man who's changed his heart."

Hannah said softly, "I can tell, you actually really liked President Hartley. Nelly, it's not shameful to like someone. You've genuinely loved, so it's hard to let go. There's nothing wrong with that."

Cornelia looked at Hannah, her eyes welling up, "Is it really not shameful?"

Hannah held her hand, "We weren't the other women, we publicly loved our husbands as wives. Even if we're divorced now, what's so shameful about not being able to forget him for a while?"

Cornelia's eyes filled with tears, "He once said he wanted to spend his life with me; he said he only wanted me, no one else. I believed every word he said to me, I believed we would grow old together. But he changed, he betrayed me, and our marriage."

Wiping away her tears, Cornelia continued, "He suddenly changed, I didn't recognize him. But I still remember his tone and expression when he said those things to me."

"We often think that people's hearts change slowly, but actually, they often change in an instant. Falling for someone might happen in a moment; falling out of love might also happen in a moment. Nelly, you don't need to dwell on why he changed, you should live your life well." Hannah advised.
