Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 723

Cornelia's panic and worries completely flew over Marcus' head.

His main concern was that she might not accept him as her husband, that she might not want to admit he and Jeremy were the same person.

He never once put himself in her shoes, unaware that she might be even more scared than him about handling their relationship.

Hearing her say it out loud, Marcus felt a wave of guilt. "Cornelia, I didn't consider your perspective. I'm really sorry! Tell me your worries, let's tackle them together."

Cornelia said, "Our differences in social status and wealth are too vast. Couples with such huge gaps often seem unhappy, many ending in divorce.

“I don't want to experience such a messy marriage. When I found out you were Jeremy, I thought about divorcing you, thought about backing out. But you gave me courage, made me want to take a step forward, to give it a try.

“So even though I'm painfully aware that I'll never earn as much as you in this lifetime, I still want to try to earn more, to close the gap in wealth.

“I think if I try hard, maybe I can get a bit closer to you, and we can make this marriage work. What do you think?"

Her bright eyes, soft voice, they were like poison, seeping into his heart, making him deeply addicted, unable to pull away.

"Yes. Trust me, if we work together, we can definitely make this marriage work." He cradled her blushing face, leaning down to kiss her soft lips.

Her lips were incredibly soft, so sweet, an experience he was deeply relishing.

If he'd known how wonderful kissing her was, he wouldn't have waited this long, he would've done it the moment he found out she was his wife.

Kissing her sweet lips, their noses touching, inhaling her unique scent, he was about to deepen the kiss, when she suddenly bit him hard with her small teeth.
