Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 29

"I accept your apology." Cornelia looked coldly at Helena, not sure what she was up to. "But, Marcus decided to let you go from the Hartley Group. You've known him for so many years, you should know better than me that his decisions are unchangeable."

"Cornelia, you can change his decision, because everything Marcus does is for you." Helena seemed to lose her sanity, grabbing Cornelia's arms tightly.

Her hands gripped Cornelia's injured arm, unable to tell if it was intentional or not. "Cornelia, I beg you, please help me. You're the only one who can. If you don't plead for me, I have nowhere to go but death..."

"Helena, let go first, you're hurting me." Cornelia tried to push her away, but a normal person's strength couldn't compare to someone who had lost their sanity.

Helena clung to Cornelia, shaking her frantically. "I won't let go! If I let go of you, I'm done..."

"Let her go!" Marcus's deep voice suddenly sounded.

Helena, frightened, immediately let go of her hand, her face covered in snot and tears. "Marcus, I've already apologized to Cornelia. Please forgive me, don't make me leave..."

Marcus quickly stepped forward, protecting Cornelia behind him. "Ayden."

Hearing Marcus call his name, Ayden appeared by their side like a ghost, carrying the irrational Helena away on his shoulder.

Marcus turned his head, seeing Cornelia's pale face and the beads of sweat rolling down her forehead.

He reached out to wipe her sweat, but stopped just before his fingers touched her forehead.

Cornelia's flushed lips moved slightly, whispering, "It hurts..."

Marcus, no longer caring about anything, picked her up in his arms. "Dr. Dawson!"

Dr. Dawson had been here all along, holding her medical kit, but hesitated to interrupt the two standing so close to each other.

Marcus carried Cornelia inside, and Dr. Dawson immediately followed. "Cornelia, are you okay?"

How could she be okay?

She was in so much pain!

Cornelia was in so much pain that she couldn't speak, and kept taking deep breaths.
