Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband

Chapter 1244

Chapter 1244

Cornelia and Grandpa Augustine had been yakking for quite some time, with her trying to keep the old man’s spirits

up. She had no intentions of finding another beau “Grandpa Augustine, this guy ain’t doing it for me.”

The man wasn’t Cornelia’s cup of tea, and Grandpa Augustine didn’t sweat it. He flipped to another photo, saying,

“What about this bloke? He’s from the Alexander family, the ones running a business in the Capital”

Cornelia leaned in for a gander. This bloke looked pretty dashing, not just a pretty face but also had a decent build

in the photo.

“Who’s this guy?” Cornelia asked.

*Jarvis” The mention of Jarvis piqued Grandpa Augustine’s interest, “The Alexander family’s business is still in the

hands of Cecil, but Jarvis is the only heir.

“I see” Comelia nodded knowingly, “So he doesn’t have to worry about someone else snatching away his

inheritance”

“This young chap doesn’t want to take over the family business. He’s not even thirty and he’s already built his own

empire. The cloud payment we know today was developed by Jarvis team, and he made a fortune from this project

alone Augustine said

Cornelia played along. “Wow, he must be some hotshot then!”

Patricia, who had been quiet all along, chimed in, “Grandpa Augustine, these two men are certainly promising. But

compared to President Hartley, they’re not in the same league. President Hartley was hustling with his team since

he was a teenager, and thanks to his efforts, the once shaky Hartley Group has become a top tier company globally

“He may have been a big shot, but that’s history. He’s an ex-husband now Grandpa Augustine knew about Marcus’s

achievements and the two excellent men he introduced. But compared to Marcus, they still fell short.

Patricia was just stating facts, but it seemed to have rubbed Grandpa Augustine the wrong way Cornelia quickly

defused the situation, “Grandpa Augustine, I’ve got my hands full with work at the moment, so I don’t have time to

think about personal stuff. Let’s cook some pork pie for now I need to get back to work after”

“Alright, your work comes first. You do your thing, and I’ll handle the matchmaking Grandpa Augustine said.

Cornelia felt that being nanged to get hitched could be a blessing and a curse.

For the next few days, Cornelia didn’t hear a peep about Marcus. She was buried in her work, oblivious to what was

happening outside her world.

She was a routine queen when it came to her comic, updating daily. Ever since she sold the TV and animation

rights, her creative freedom took a hit Cornelia had to submit the complete draft within the agreed timeframe.

The first half of the content was about her and Marcus’s everyday life, which the readers found sweet and

heartwarming

If she were to draw the latter half based on reality, where the male lead suddenly changed his heart and the

female lead filed for divorce, leading to their separation, it would be a real sob story. The backlash from readers

would be enough to drown her.

Real life was already tough enough. Comelia didn’t want her comic characters to suffer like her So, Cornelia worked

her socks off creating unexperienced everyday life scenes and designed a rosy ending for the lead characters.
