Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 372

"This is something you used to wear." Marcus paused for a few seconds before speaking again, "Gross!"

Courtney’s face changed, she roared, "I'm gross? You're calling me gross? Your dad was the first one to betray me, why don’t you say he's gross? Or do men think it's cool for men to fool around, but if women do it, it's shameless?"

"He’s even grosser!" In Marcus's mind, a married man or a woman should be responsible for the marriage and preserve its sanctity. Not messing around was the least requirement.

And because of this, when he mistakenly thought his wife was cheating, he was so determined to divorce her.

"You're just as heartless and ungrateful as him, like you were cut from the same cloth." Courtney took a deep breath and continued, "You have his blood in you; sooner or later you'll betray your marriage, and ditch your wife."

"What happens with me and my wife is none of your business." Marcus made a dismissive gesture again, clearly wanting her to leave.

"Cornelia doesn't know you're Jeremy yet, does she? You don’t want to tell her? Marc, what are you so worried about? Afraid she'll find out about the Hartley family’s dirty laundry?" Leaving a bomb in Marcus's mind, Courtney waved and confidently walked away.

Walking out of the yard, Billy who had been waiting outside immediately came up and opened the car door for her, "Madam, you know they are not on your side, why do you do this?"

Courtney got into the car and leaned comfortably on the seat, "Because I know, that's why I came. That man told me at the end of the year that he had a woman outside. Every year end, that thing pricks my heart like a needle. I don't have a good life. Why should they live happily?"

Billy knew that if she was not doing well, she wouldn’t let others do well either. Driving a few hours from Calandria to Paris, just to make them uncomfortable.

Marcus had to admit, Courtney's last words indeed messed up his mind.

Because Courtney hit the nail on the head. He dared not tell Cornelia the truth not only because Cornelia had a bad impression of Marcus, but also because of the unspeakable things of the Hartley family.

"Bro," Briana had been eavesdropping around the corner, hearing their conversation clearly, "The Hartley family stuff has nothing to do with you. Your wife won't care; don't listen to that woman."

"Do you think her words can affect me?" Marcus ruffled her hair, "You need to break this habit of eavesdropping. If I catch you again, I'll punish you."

Briana mischievously stuck out her tongue, "You just can't bear to let me go."

"Go help tidy the media room." After speaking to Briana, Marcus headed to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, both Dr. Dawson and Ayden were helping Cornelia prepare the ingredients. Cornelia was busy cooking. As soon as they saw Marcus, they immediately made way and then left the kitchen one by one.

"Dr. Dawson, could you pass me the sauce?" Cornelia reached out her hand, waiting to receive the sauce, but when she didn't get it and turned her head, she found Marcus standing next to her.

He looked a bit off, seemingly lost in thought, and he didn't even seem to hear her.
