“Aren’t you just that kind of person? Granny Luisa couldn’t fathom how he had the nerve to deny if it was well known that he was exactly the type to stop at nothing to achieve his goals Hadn’t he done countless extreme things in the ten years he took over the Hartley Group just to get what he wanted?
“if Granny thinks I’m that kind of person, then I guess I just have to accept the title Marcus opened the door to the room walked in, and locked it behind him
Granny Luisa was so anxious she wanted to knock on the door. But then she thought better of it. This headstrong lad had his own mesolve, he’d never force a girl
Marcus sat down by Comelia’s bed tucked her in quietly and watched her. From his point of view, she was as beautiful as a Barbie doll. And her skin, it was flawless and perfect Marcus couldn’t resist reaching out to touch her face her skin felt amazing under his fingers
His fingers slid down where he remembered her smile lines would be. He pressed a little too hard and might have hurt her. She waved her hand in her sleep, “Zack, Abigail, quit it
in her dreams she kept saying the names Zack and Abigail This seriously rubbed Marcus the wrong way. He decided to punish her for saying other men’s names in her sleep, in his own
He leaned in close just a little bit more and he could kiss her
Ring ring ring –
His phone suddenly rang from his pocket, interrupting his movertent and pulling him back from the edge.
A sobered Marcus immediately hung up and switched his phone to airplane mode
“Jemy” Cornelia suddenly spoke, causing Marcus to tense up. He thought his cover was about to be blown, but it turned out slie was sleep talking again. This time she was saying his name, which made him happy “Why don’t you ever answer me? We’re husband and wife but you’re always so cold to me”
Marcus took her hand, ‘Ill answer you from now on”
Maybe she could hear him, Comelia had a smile on her face
From then on, no matter what she asked him, he would answer
She pulled his hand closer to her found a more comfortable position, and drifted back to sleep
Once he was sure she was asleep, Marcus went to the balcony and turned off airplane mode Steven’s call came through again, “Marc, you’re not answering my calls and turning off your phone Are you getting naughty? It’s only been a few minutes since I called, Marc, you’re slipping”
Marcus sounded a bit annoyed. “Let’s get down to business”
Hearing his tone, Steven was even more convinced he was night, “Marcus, what a waste of your good looks!”
Marcus was even angrier now, “Steven!”
Steven knew he was pissed and stopped joking. “The leading PTSD expert who just returned to the country, do you still want me to set up a meeting?”
“Have him come see me tomorrow night” After that, Marcus hung up, switched his phone back to a plane mode, and returned to his room.
