Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 552

He still had a poker face, but Cornelia could feel his respect for her.

Cornelia let her guard down, "What's up?"

Ayden said, "President Hartley's condition is much worse than what you've seen. If you're not busy with anything else, could you please go back and stay with President Hartley? You don't have to do anything, just be by his side."

"Is he in bad shape?" Cornelia had known Ayden for a long time, but this was the first time she heard him talk so much. She had a hunch that something was fishy.

Ayden was Marcus' most trusted subordinate. It was very likely that he was trying to deceive her under Marcus’ orders.

She had just come out of Marcus' hospital room. He looked fine, did not look like a patient at all.

Ayden said, "His condition is critical!"

Cornelia didn't want to see Marcus at this moment, and she hesitated, "I'm not a doctor. My presence might just add to their problems."

Ayden, "My mom has been taking care of President Hartley for many years. She may have overstepped her boundaries when she spoke to you earlier. Please don't mind her. May I ask you to accompany President Hartley?"

Ayden was generally a man of few words; he wouldn't talk unless necessary. The fact that he was explaining so much tonight probably meant that Marcus's condition was really bad.

"Abby, go back in Zack's car. I'm going to check on Marcus." Cornelia got out of the car, locked it, and followed Ayden into the hospital.

Once in the elevator, Cornelia quickly pressed the button for the eighth floor. Ayden pressed for the sixth floor.

He said, "President Hartley is on the sixth floor now."
