Chapter 112
“You’re totally right. I didnt take good care of her before and let her suffer a lot I swear won’t make that
mistake again Marcus said, then turned to Cornelia and apologized
His eyes were deep and hazy, and Cornelia quessed he might be drunk. The apology was probably
meant for his wife
Cornelia wanted to tell him not to blame himself too much. They just needed to live a good life together
in the future
But she wasnt his wife, and she hadn’t experienced what his wife had gone through She didn’t know
what had happened between the couple and wasn’t qualified to give advice
She remained silent, and Marcus chuckled and raised his glass for another drink.
Old Mr. Abner said ‘Marc, you two seem a bit awkward. Did you guys have a fight before coming to see
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme?”
Cornelia shuddered when she heard this, but Marcus responded quickly, “Yeah, we had a fight. If it
weren’t for your sake, she probably wouldn’t even want to talk to me today”
Old Mr. Abner nodded knowingly. Tcould tell by the way you held hands that you had a fight. But there’s
no couple who doesn’t fight. When my wife and I first got married, we often fought because of our
different personalities Once, I even made her cry Seeing her tears, I felt so bad that I swore never to
make her sad again and to make her happy for the rest of her life I also promised never to leave her,
but sadly, she left me first.
Thinking of his late wife, tears welled up in Old Mr. Abner’s eyes. Don’t think that you’re young and
have a lifetime ahead Life is short, and before you know it, decades have passed Cherish every day
you have together”
Marcus nodded, “I will”
Cornelia also nodded, suddenly thinking of her nominal husband, Jeremy.
Their marriage seemed like it never happened She hadn’t thought much about him before he
appeared, and getting the marriage certificate felt like it just happened yesterday.
However, upon calculation, it had been a year and seven months since she and Jeremy got their
marriage certificate. How many years and seven months can one have in a lifetime?
When she returned to Riverton, she must talk to Jeremy about their marriage and not divorce
impulsively or refuse to divorce out of spite.
With that thought, Cornelia took out her private phone and sent a text to Jeremy,” “Let’s meet and have
a good talk”
As her message was sent, Marcus‘ phone beeped.
Old Mr. Abner laughed. “You two are sitting together, and you’re still texting each other. Is there
anything I, an old man, can’t hear?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCornelia hurriedly said, “No, I’m not texting him, I’m texting my friend.”
Marcus slowly took out his private phone, and indeed, it was a message from Cornella. She wanted to
talk, but about what?
His slender fingers tapped quickly, typing a few words: “What do you want to talk about?”
Cornelia replied “About our marriage. Whether we divorce or not, we need to meet and talk it through,
and we shouldn’t waste each other’s youth,”
Marcus read the message, typed a few words, and then deleted them one by one. It wasn’t time to
reveal his identity yet.
He put some food on her plate. “Eat your meal and don’t play with your phone.”
Since the boss had spoken, Cornelia, who hadn’t received a reply from Jeremy, had no choice but to
put away her phone. But she still couldn’t help but wonder if Jeremy’s lack of response meant he was
avoiding something.
By the time they finished eating and the driver took them back to Sunset Bay Resort, it was already
dinner time.
