Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 272

Briana had no intention of wrapping her head around these complex matters. With a dismissive wave of her hand, she said, "Nah, I don't wanna learn. Teach Cornelia. She wants to learn, and you want to teach. Don't drag me, the non-student type into this."

"You have to learn." Marcus turned towards Cornelia. He looked at her gently and said, "If you want to learn, let's learn together."

Cornelia was all too happy to accept this attention. She hopped up excitedly, "I really want to. Mr. Hartley, could you wait for me for two minutes? I'm going to get my pen and notebook."

"Go ahead." Watching her retreating figure, Marcus's mood also became brighter.

Just the fact that she could study with him made her incredibly happy, she was such an easily contented person.

Briana was forced into a state of studying. Whenever she had to study, she would feel sleepy. But Cornelia was very serious about her studies, not only listening attentively but also taking notes, like an exemplary student. Briana watched as the two of them, one seriously explaining, the other seriously listening. Their attention was all focused on the ancient book, fully engrossed, completely oblivious to her slacking off.

Sneakily, she took out her comic book to continue reading, occasionally stealing glances at Marcus, afraid that he might discover she wasn't paying attention.

What she didn't know was that she was just an excuse for Marcus to get close to Cornelia. He really only wanted to teach Cornelia.

"Mr. Hartley, I don't recognize this word." Cornelia pointed to an unfamiliar ancient character, looking at him with hopeful eyes, "Can you help me identify it?"

Marcus leaned towards her naturally. He once again caught a whiff of her unique scent. She didn't wear any perfume, so why did she always smell faintly sweet?
