Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 1551

It was quite a while before Jeremy's text message appeared on the screen again.

[My wife, Cornelia, is just too amazing. She's not only beautiful but also a money-making machine. She’s been doing incredibly well in her studio with films and animations lately, and she's brought in a lot of money. I've been pretty useless.]

Lucas replied, [I can't help but suspect you're bragging about your wife.]

Zavier chimed in, [I wish I could chop someone!]

Steven added, [No, I can understand Marc's mentality.]

Lucas, curious, asked, [Do tell.]d2

Steven continued, [When Marc and Cornelia first got married, Cornelia was just a newly graduated junior employee. Back then, she was naive and didn't have much, while Marc was in control of the globally renowned corporation, The Hartley Group. There was a stark contrast between their statuses. Now, Marc still has The Artis Group, and is still one of the wealthiest men in the world, but Cornelia is no longer the same person she was. She has worked hard and steadily moved forward. She bought a house in Riverton, her work has expanded, and she's been earning more and more money on her own. Ever since being with Marc, Cornelia never stopped progressing. Her work has been improving, she's becoming more and more outstanding, and more and more people are noticing her. It can be said that whether Marc is in her life or not, her quality of life wouldn't be affected.]

Steven's analysis hit Jeremy hard. As Cornelia kept improving, he felt both proud and worried. He was afraid that she wouldn't need him anymore, afraid that she might kick him to the curb at any moment.

Lucas didn't think that was the case. [Marc, is that really how you feel?]

Jeremy didn't answer. His silence was taken as confirmation by the others.

Zavier was especially pleased. [So, you have your insecurities, too? That's great!]

Steven asked, [Marc, are you still there? Do you want to say something?]

Soon, Jeremy replied, not with a text, but with a voice message.

Steven immediately clicked it, not expecting to hear Cornelia's voice. "Sorry, guys! My husband just went to wash up, he'll reply later."
