Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 276

First line: "Cornelia, I shall be returning to Riverton tomorrow."

Second line: "If you are available, we could arrange a meeting."

She initially believed she could maintain composure, yet upon realizing the message originated from Jeremy, she found herself unable to contain her excitement and hastily replied, "At what time will you arrive in Riverton tomorrow?"

If he were to return to Riverton earlier, she could still have a rendezvous with him before heading to Harbor City.

Jeremy: "Two o'clock in the afternoon."

By tomorrow afternoon, she will have already reached Harbor City.

Cornelia responded with disappointment, "Sorry! Tomorrow, I will be accompanying Marcus to Harbor City, and I am unsure when I will be able to return. Hence, I am unable to meet with you tomorrow."

Jeremy: "Then let us meet when you return."

Cornelia: "Very well."

After she replied, Jeremy didn't text again. He could casually ask her what she's been up to lately, but he didn't ask anything.

Cornelia clutched her phone tightly, thought for a moment, and finally decided to be honest with him about the importance of communication, otherwise, misunderstandings would arise. "Jeremy, you said you wanted to be with me, were you serious?"

This time, Jeremy replied quickly, "Every word I said to you was serious."

Cornelia, "And how long will we be together? A year? Two years? Ten years? Or longer?"

Jeremy, "A lifetime."

His response, like a marvelous melody, gently struck the chords of Cornelia's heart. Even though she was alone in the room, her cheeks involuntarily flushed.
