Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 256

Cornelia felt utterly uncomfortable with his act, "President Hartley, I should have done it myself."

"Did you grow eyes or hands on your head?" Marcus released her once he finished applying the ointment. He tidied up at a leisurely pace, looking at her, "Are you thinking that I have some kind of intention towards you?"

Cornelia did have such suspicions. But when he questioned her so righteously, she thought maybe she was overthinking, "I don't."

Every time he approached her, she reacted as if he was about to devour her. Her behavior irked him greatly, and he wanted to punish her severely, "You don't?"

He had already pulled her into his arms, it was hard not to overthink. But Cornelia dared not admit. He had already said he had no intention towards her. If she kept thinking this way, she would just be wishful thinking.

Cornelia thought that the reason why she kept misunderstanding Marcus was that she had never had such intimate contact with any man, including her own husband.

Once Jeremy returned to Riverton, she would have more communication with him. She needed to understand how a real couple should interact, then she would be able to judge whether Marcus's behavior towards her was the normal interaction between a superior and an employee.

Seeing her anxious look, Marcus decided to let her off, "It's my decision, no need to thank me!"

Cornelia didn't intend to thank him, but since he brought it up, she had to say, "Thank you, President Hartley!"

Marcus turned to look out of the car window, "Do you feel uncomfortable when you are alone with me?"

"No!" Cornelia shook her head, even if she did, she couldn't admit it.

Marcus chuckled lightly, turned around and looked at her, "No?"
