Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 380

Dr. Dawson was busy lightening the mood, "There's still plenty of food left here, guys."

Under everyone's gaze, Marcus personally served Cornelia a piece of meat, "You first!"

Cornelia nearly choked, "President Hartley, I can serve myself."

"You cooked me several dishes; shouldn't I serve you some meat?"

There was no room to argue there; Cornelia had to accept. Unexpectedly, Marcus kept serving her meat and her bowl never remained empty.

Feeling a bit stuffed, Cornelia decided to take a break, watch the show, and then continue eating.

The show was dull, so Cornelia took out her phone, put away the gift cards she hadn't had the chance to accept earlier, and texted Jeremy, "Got called to dinner with colleagues. Did you have your New Year's Eve dinner? Anyone with you?"

After a while, Jeremy replied, "Eating now, with colleagues too."

Cornelia, "Are you watching the show?"

Jeremy, "The TV's on, but the show's boring. Everyone's on their phones."

Cornelia, "Same here. The TV's on, but everyone's on their phones, and no one's watching. Even our President Hartley is on his phone."

Jeremy, "Is it unusual for President Hartley to be on his phone?"

Cornelia, "President Hartley hardly uses his phone; he only uses it for calls. It's weird seeing him on it so much today. Wonder what he's up to?"

Jeremy, "My guess is he's chatting with his wife."

Cornelia, "Right, why didn't I think of that? The president's wife isn't here; he's spending New Year's with us; he must miss his wife back home."

Marcus slightly turned his head to look at Cornelia on her phone and thought to himself, "She's not back home; she's right next to me."
