Marcus answered coolly, "Just my gut feeling."
His gut feeling?!
His gut feeling could accurately guess a girl's bra size, which made it hard not to question if he did this often for girls.
Thinking that he could have been this considerate with other girls, suddenly made Cornelia feel unhappy. "Did you buy underwear for other girls before?"
Marcus was taken aback, then he laughed, "Are you jealous?"
He was handsome, but his smile made him even more charming.
Cornelia looked away, not looking at him, which was the only way she could maintain a normal conversation. "You're changing the subject."
Suddenly, Marcus grabbed her hand and placed it on his chest, "Can you feel it?"
Cornelia, "Feel what?"
Marcus, "My heartbeat."
His warm breath blew in her ear, making Cornelia's heart beat faster, she let out a soft sound, "Hmm."
Marcus continued, "Cornelia, look at me, and listen to me. You are the first, the only, and the last. I won't prepare these things for anyone else."
Preparing these things for her was a husband's duty, and he didn't expect her to be jealous about it.
Cornelia felt satisfied with this answer. "Then leave me for a moment. I need to change."
Marcus stood there, his gaze still on her.
Cornelia watched him warily, and swallowed nervously, "You said... and there are people around today... you can't back out."
