“Alright, alright, you gotta give it your best shot. Jay, this mission is mainly on you Nelly is a girl, she’s shy, so you gotta make the first mave, Granny Rebecca ended the
video call.
Cornelia felt a headache coming on.
Marcus noticed her tension, “It’s okay if you don’t want kids, we won’t have kids. We decide our life, and no one else has the right to interfere
His voice was still so soothing
Cornelia looked up to see him wearing silver–rimmed glasses, with a smile in his eyes, “I don’t not want kids, I just don’t want them this early, I want to wait a few more
years‘
“Alright whatever you say,” he reached out, cradled the back of her head, gently pulling her closer.
Cornelia instinctively closed her eyes. His breath getting closer, closer, he was probably about to kiss her…
Her heart was racing, as if it was about to jump out of her throat. But, after waiting for what seemed like forever, he didn’t kiss her.
Wasn’t he going to kiss her?
Cornelia slowly opened her eyes, his face was right in front of hers. He seemed to be smiling
She opened her mouth to say something, but saw Marcus lips quickly approaching hers. His lips were hot, but his kiss was light, like a feather brushing past, leaving no
trace
Comelia barely had time to feel the kiss before he pulled away, his deep voice whispering in her ear, “Cornelia, I won’t do anything you’re afraid of until you’re ready”
He could see all her nerves, her unease, and all the emotions that she tried to hide.
Even though he longed to truly become her husband, her feelings were always most important to him.
His words somewhat eased Cornelia’s nerves, “Thank you!”
He twirled a strand of her hair around his finger, “No need to thank me, I’m your husband, it’s my job to do anything for you.”
He always remembered he was her husband, and she always remembered she was his wife.
They were husband and wife in name, but not in reality, and there was no deep love. Cornelia knew very well, they were together out of responsibility not love. But at this moment, she felt a glimmer of longing, what if he was with her for more than just responsibility, what if there was something else?
Just as Cornelia was lost in thought, a knock at the door came, the hotel staff brought dinner, giving her a chance to collect herself,
The dinner was small in portion but varied, filling the table.
Some of it was Cornelia’s favorites, some she’d never tried but looked delicious. It was clear these were all ordered in advance by Marcus.
You had to admit, Marcus was a competent husband, always considering his wife, even if she wasn’t the one, he’d still do these…
This sudden thought scared Cornelia. This was her ideal marnage, why was she feeling uneasy thinking about it?
