Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 571

Cornelia looked at his expression, quietly saying, "A couple of mornings ago, Mr. Rivera called me to pick you up from Riverside Terrace Club. And when I got there, I saw you in bed with Natalia."

She left her words hanging in the air, expecting Marcus to explain. But instead he blurted out, "So you think I'm messing around? Or that I might like Natalia?"

Cornelia softly said, "You know how they say men often let their physical desires dictate their actions, regardless of whether they have feelings for the woman."

Marcus had a dark look on his face, "So you don't trust me?"

Cornelia replied, "It's not about trust, it's just."

She had seen it with her own eyes. She just wanted to hear his explanation, but he didn't say anything. How was she supposed to trust him?

She was feeling confused, unsure about how to steer the conversation to her advantage.

Marcus then asked, "What time did you get to Riverside Terrace Club that morning?"

Cornelia clearly remembered the time, "6:30 in the morning."

Marcus explained, "The previous night, Zavier asked me to drink. He tried to get me drunk, even spiked my drink. When I was out of it, Natalia showed up."

Cornelia listened quietly, waiting for him to continue.

He went on, "Nothing happened between Natalia and me. I left Riverside Terrace Club at exactly 6:30. You came right after I left. There's no way you could have seen me in bed with Natalia. If I'm guessing right, this is all Zavier's doing to mess with your head. You shouldn't believe it."

Cornelia admitted, "I've suspected as much."

She knew that what she saw might not be the truth. Zavier was like a madman now, willing to do anything to get his hands on Skyler.
