Marcus comforted him, “I heard you I’ll take care of myself, and I’ve got plenty of meaningful stuff to do with Cornelia.”
Dr. Lester, pleased with this, responded, “Then you two hit the sack early. Patricia and I will take good care of Ms. Reese.”
After Dr Lester left, Marcus held Cornelia close, gently stroking her back. Cornelia was having a rough night, shivering now and then, as if spooked by something
“Cornelia, how about I tell you a story?” Marcus tried to soothe her fears with his voice.
He spoke softly. “Once upon a time, there was a boy born into a very wealthy family. The boy was the center of attention from the moment he was born because he was the only heir to the family. His parents were deeply in love. His father was loyal and his mother was kind and gentle. They lived a life that was the envy of many
“When the boy turned six, his parents had a baby girl. Her arrival made their already warm home even happier. Every day before going to work, the father would give his daughter a kiss and tell her and the boy that he loved them very much and wanted them to be always happy. The mother would spend the day at home with the children, drawing with them, cooking together.”
Marcus had a lovely voice, and his heartwarming story gave a strong sense of security. Cornelia, who had been restless, gradually calmed down. Once he noticed that Cornelia was no longer scared, Marcus laid down.
Maybe it was because they were sleeping together, or because they hadn’t had a good sleep for two consecutive nights. Both of them slept soundly that night.
When Cornelia woke up, it was already in the morning. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a pair of eyes staring at her, full of tenderness and
love.
Cornelia was surprised, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Marcus gently placed her head on his chest and kissed her forehead, “Cornelia, I’m head over heels for you!”
Waking up early, Cornelia’s mind was not fully awake yet. She hadn’t expected to hear such a straightforward confession from Marcus. novelbin
She was stunned
Marcus continued, “I hope you always remember, I’m in your life.”
Cornelia said, “I know”
Marcus said, “You don’t.”
Marcus took her hand and held it tightly in his, “I want to tell you, that you don’t have to worry about anything. Whatever you want to do, whenever you want to do it, I’m willing to be with you.”
Hearing him suddenly say these words, Cornelia got a bit nervous, “Did something happen?”
Marcus asked, “Did you have a nightmare last night? Do you remember?”
Cornelia didn’t have much impression at first, but when Marcus mentioned it, she seemed to recall something, “It seemed to be a very scary nightmare. But then I think I heard your voice, and I wasn’t so afraid anymore.”
