Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 446

It was ten at night in Riverton, but it was still afternoon in Switzerland. Today the sun was shining, and Courtney was chilling in her rocking chair, soaking up the spring sunshine.

Billy rushed over, shoving a tablet into Courtney's face, "Ma'am, look."

Courtney didn't even open her eyes, "I got it."

Billy hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is Marcus planning to go public with his thing with Cornelia?"

Courtney snorted, "He knows how many eyes are on him, and he knows the dangers lurking around him better than any of us. He won't reveal that woman’s identity before he's eliminated all threats, unless he wants to put her in danger."

Billy didn't buy that Marcus would protect Cornelia, "The guy’s ice-cold, how could he possibly care about a woman he met on a blind date?"

Courtney countered, "You think he doesn't care about her?"

Billy speculated, "I think he won't let you touch her because she's taken his wife's place. You know, you haven't been able to touch anything of his for years."

Courtney was skeptical, "So he really doesn't care about her? I beg to differ."

Billy asked, "What did you find out when you went to Paris last time?"

Courtney admitted, "I went to Paris to see how much Marcus actually cares about her. The more he does, the better for us. But I wasn't there long enough to figure out his feelings for her."

Billy queried, "So, you're saying we can't make a move yet?"
