Chapter 209 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

Comelia chuckled, “You’re just too used to being busy. You should spend more time with your farmily when you’re free, like playing with your grandson. It’s quite a treat” “My little grandson doesn’t really fancy me. He doesn’t even let me hold him when I’m home.” Austin said before abruptly asking, “When are you planning to have kids?” Cornelia replied, “My husband and I aren’t in a rush.” Austin sighed, “Young folks these days are all about work, no hurry to have kids. As someone who’s been there, I think, sooner or later you’ll have kids. So why not sooner?” Not wanting to argue with the old man, Comelia just offered a polite smile and said, “You have a point.” In the middle of their conversation, they drove into a familiar neighborhood. This was the way to Marcus’s Celestial Chateau. “President Hartley, are we heading to your place?” she asked. She had been chatting with Austin the whole ride, as if Marcus in the backseat was invisible. Only now did she finally notice him, and Marcus grunted in displeasure. Comelia had no idea why Marcus was suddenly upset, but she knew better than to provoke him at this moment. She guessed he was probably going home to change before heading out again. As his assistant, she had to accompany him. About half an hour later, they arrived at the Celestial Chateau. Patricia was already waiting by the gate. Seeing Cornelia getting out of the car, she rushed over and looked her up and down, “Nelly. you’re finally back. You must’ve had a tough time working in Paris. You’ve lost weight. You must eat well tonight.” Cornelia gave an apologetic smile, “Patricia, I’m just here to accompany President Hartley to change his clothes. We’ll be leaving again. soon, so I might not get a chance to taste your cooking.” “You’re leaving again?” Patricia looked at Marcus, her disappointment almost bringing her to tears, “Marc, I thought you saw my message and brought Nelly back to have the mea! I prepared. Guess I was wrong.” Marcus didn’t say anything. He took a phone call in front of them. After a brief exchange, he hung up and said to Cornelia, “The gathering tonight’s been called off. Stay for dinner.”
