Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 938

Everyone thought Granny Luisa would play matchmaker between two families of similar status. No one expected her to set up Marcus with a small-town girl.

"Believe it or not, that's the reality. They're in Rosenberg now and they seem pretty smitten with each other. So, can ya'll stop pushing me to seduce Marcus? No more playing the third wheel, okay..."

Before Natalia could finish, Clair landed a harsh slap across her face. "What the hell are you blabbering about? Try spouting that negative crap again. I've told you countless times – you were born to be Marcus' bride. Your life's mission is to marry him. How can you say such hurtful things?"

Natalia looked at her emotionlessly, and there was even a small hint of smile in her eyes. If all went as usual, her mom would soon be apologizing, just like she always did after giving her a slap and then offering her a sweet treat.

"Natalia, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hit you. I just didn't want you to talk so negatively..." Clair cupped Natalia's face, "Baby, don't worry. No matter who Marcus' wife is, I'll figure out a way to split them up and make him marry you."

Natalia suddenly burst into hysterical laughter, "Marrying Marcus was never my goal. It was yours. You kept telling me that I should grow up and marry him, become his bride, so I believed I was supposed to. But he's already married! He's so in love with his wife, they're always together, why should I ruin that?

“Bri and Cornelia are right, I'm a well-educated woman, not bad looking, and there are plenty of guys who like me. I'm a catch. Any guy would be lucky to have me, but in your eyes, I'm just a tool to win Marcus over.

“You're wrong, Marcus doesn't like me. Trying to force me on him will only make him despise me more. You can control me because I depend on you, but how can you be so sure you can control Marcus, the president of the Hartley Group?

“He's Marcus!He's the feared heir of the Hartley Group, a young man who became the world's richest. With so many amazing girls around the world wanting to marry him, what makes you think your daughter stands a chance?

“Wake up! Marcus has absolutely zero interest in the Reese family. To him, the Reese family is nothing noteworthy. He doesn't want anything to do with you, yet you're always trying to please him. It's pitiful... Wake up, he's never valued you, and you'll never be the mother of his wife..."

For the first time, Natalia voiced her feelings so directly. But before she could finish, Clair slapped her several times.

Clair glared at her furiously, "You traitor! After all I've done for you over the years, instead of helping me when I need you, you're siding with others."
