Chapter 213
A single message cleared all Marcus’s worries and a strange Joy surged in his heart.
Cornelia bought him a gift, indicating that his recent efforts were not in vain. She must have felt his
determination to spend the rest of his life with her.
He quickly typed a message. Where are you? I’ll come to pick it up right away”
Just as he was about to send it, Marcus remembered that Jeremy was not in Riverton at the moment
and couldn’t meet Cornelia for now
He deleted the text and typed again, “How about waiting till I get back to Riverton and you give it to me
in person?”
After a while, Cornelia replied, “Ah, okay then
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer reply reeked of disappointment Marcus didn’t want her to be disappointed, so he said, “If it’s not
too much trouble, you can send it to my house. Il wear it as soon as I get back”
He then sent an address, which was a house he bought under Jeremy’s name but never lived in
himself.
The house was moderately priced and Cornelia wouldn’t suspect his identity because of it
Cornelia was surprised for a few seconds when she saw the address Marcus sent
She wanted to buy a property in this development, but had to give up because she didn’t have enough
money just after graduation.
The environment was average, but there were good schools nearby, so the house prices were very
high.
The current resale price in this community is very high, far exceeding the value of the house itself.
It seems Jeremy has a long term vision. This kind of house is convenient for kids to go to school if you

Cornelia called a courier and sent it directly from the mall
After sending the courier, Cornelia messaged Jeremy. “It’s a pair of shoes I don’t know if you’ll like
them.”
Jeremy replied. “As long as it’s from you, I’ll love it.”
This sudden confession made Cornelia blush. You really know how to woo a girl! Do you do this with all
girls?”
Jeremy replied, “I only like the things you give me.”
Marcus was telling the truth He had never made an effort to please any girl before and didn’t know how
to talk to women to please them. He just wanted to be nice to ner instinctively. But Cornelia thought he

If a man is so good at making girls happy, he must have had a lot of girlfriends.
Because of this thought, Cornelia suddenly felt a gloom, “I’m going home first.”
“Okay “Marcus didn’t notice the change in Cornelia’s mood and sent her a last message before rushing
to get the shoes
This was the first gift his wife had given him and no matter the value, he wanted to get it immediately.
Just as the car arrived, Cornelia returned to the neighborhood and parked the car in the underground
garage. Just as she parked the car, a familiar car drove past her. Cornelia immediately honked the
car’s horn
The driver, Zack, glanced sideways but didn’t respond.
He didn’t respond, but the other party didn’t stop and kept honking
