Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1547

Cornelia gazed into Jeremy's eyes. Worry danced in the depths of his gaze, and it was raw and real. She knew without a doubt how much he cared for her. So, hearing those words, he was bound to worry.

Cornelia reached out to him. Her fingers curled around his neck, and she leaned in to give him a gentle kiss. "Don't you know how much you mean to me?"

Jeremy replied, "I know... but I still want to hear you say it."

Cornelia didn't speak. Instead, she let her actions speak for her, showing him just how important he was to her.

Night fell, dark and deep. Before they knew it, it was the wee hours of the morning. As Cornelia was about to surrender to sleep, Jeremy's hushed voice echoed in her ears, "Honey, you never told me... who's more important to you, me or our son?"

Cornelia was at a loss for words. She had done everything she could to please him tonight, going above and beyond, and still, he asked this childish question.d2

Jeremy called her again, "Honey..."

Cornelia took his hand and placed it over her heart. "Darling, you are incredibly important to me. Our son is our child, and he is equally important. You both hold equal places in my heart."

"But why would you even consider choosing our child over me?" Jeremy's voice was strained. Cornelia's words had troubled him all night, robbing him of peace.

Cornelia replied, "I read it somewhere..."

Jeremy asked, "Where?"

Cornelia brushed it off. "It doesn't matter where. All you need to know is that it will never happen to us. I love you so much. How could I ever let you go?"
