Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 957

Marcus held her tightly and said, "If you have another nightmare, even if it's just a dream, remember I'm right beside you. That way, you won't be scared anymore."

Cornelia nodded and replied, "Okay."

Marcus replied, "She's awake. But she doesn't want to talk or leave her room. Patricia prepared a lot of delicious food for her but she refuses to eat."

"She had been abused before, so she might resist people getting close. I'll go check on her." Cornelia hastily got out of bed, didn't even bother to freshen up, and was ready to dash out of the room.

Marcus pulled her back, "Cornelia, let me finish."

Although Cornelia was physically in the room, her mind was already in the other bedroom, "Go on."

Marcus felt a bit disappointed, "I think she might feel uncomfortable with me around. I have some work to do, so I'll go to the office. Patricia will stay here to take care of you guys. I'll come back later."

Cornelia agreed, "Okay."

Marcus added, "Cornelia."

Cornelia asked, "Yeah?"

Marcus wanted her to show a bit more concern for him, but didn't want to pressure her, so he said, "Never mind, go ahead."

"Okay." Cornelia turned and left without hesitation.

Marcus watched her leave, speechless.

Cornelia came to the other bedroom and said, "Natalia."
