Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1356

This feeling of powerlessness and helplessness, it was like ten thousand needles stabbing deep into Cornelia's heart. It was painful, but numbed to the point where she couldn't even feel it.

"Nelly, what are you staring at?" Hannah, who had been napping for three hours of their journey, finally woke up.

Hannah had been awake for a while now, but Cornelia hadn't noticed, her eyes still glued to the window.

Following Cornelia's gaze, Hannah couldn't find anything interesting.

"Are you awake?" Cornelia turned her head.

"Yep. What are you looking at? Why don't you take a rest?" Hannah responded.

Not wanting her mood to rub off on Hannah, Cornelia made up a quick excuse, "It's my first time joining a production team as a screenwriter, I'm a bit nervous."

Hannah reached out and took Cornelia's hand, "I'm here, I'll support you. You have nothing to be afraid of."

Cornelia smiled, "Speaking of, what did Steven want with you?"

Hannah replied, "He came to play chess with my dad, Jeo."

"You think I'd buy that?" Cornelia retorted.

Hannah sighed, "He really did just play a few rounds of chess with Jeo and left. I thought his girlfriend wasn't satisfying him in bed and he needed my help. I was ready to deal with this annoying man, but he left right after finishing the chess game, not a word to me."

Cornelia sighed, "They say a woman's thoughts are impossible to fathom, but I think men's hearts are even more puzzling, always doing things that make no sense."

"Totally, I find men's hearts even harder to figure out, impossible to guess. The funniest part is, I actually thought Steven looked at me with love and reluctance this time. I must have had my head slammed in the door to have such a stupid thought." Hannah said.

Cornelia said, "No matter what feelings he has for you, don't give your heart to him too easily. As long as we protect our hearts, no one can hurt us."

Hannah nodded, "Yeah. Nelly, why don't you take a break?"
