Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 535

When Cornelia saw the message, her heart sank. She texted back: [What's bothering you?]

It took Jeremy a while before he replied: [I'm afraid that my appearance and identity will disappoint you. I'm scared I'm not the husband of your dreams. I'm also worried you'll leave me.]

"Leave me" felt like a poisoned arrow piercing Cornelia's heart, leaving her breathless.

People often said, a happy childhood could heal a lifetime of pain, while an unhappy one took a lifetime to recover from. This phrase hit home for both Jeremy and her.

Seeing Cornelia's pale face, Zack and Abigail approached her, "What's wrong?"

Cornelia shook her head, "I'm fine."

Zack cautiously asked, "Is there something going on with Jeremy?"

"Really, it's nothing. We're just discussing meeting up." Cornelia took a deep breath, squared her emotions, and replied to Jeremy: [Jeremy, I'm your wife. No matter what you look like, as long as you truly want to spend the rest of your life with me, I'll accept you. I won't let you down.]

This time, Jeremy replied quickly: [You better keep your word, no take backs!]

Seeing his reaction, Cornelia's heart ached even more. She replied: [I promise, no take backs.]

Jeremy responded: [You don't need to swear, I trust you.]

The conversation paused again.

After a moment's thought, Cornelia asked: [It's late, have you had dinner?]

Jeremy replied: [Yeah.]

Cornelia asked: [What did you eat?]
