Chapter 399 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• “Are you scared of Marcus?” Steven echoed Hannali’s words, then burst into laughters, ‘Darling do you really think I’m that useless?” Whether Steven was capable or not, Hannah knew best. He was terrifying, like a smiling yet ruthless tiger, leaving no trace of his prey But she just wanted to dent this man’s pride. Is it so hard to admit you’re scared of Marcus?” Steven said, “Marc usually appears to be very gentle, especially when he puts on those silver rimmed glasses. He looks like a complete gentleman, without a hint of aggression. But in reality his personality is extreme, even more terrifying than Zavier, who people call a lunatic. When he was not yet seventeen, he was able to send his own father to prison Do you think I would not be afraid of a person who could do such a thing?” Being afraid of Marcus was not something to be ashamed of, and Steven did not hesitate to admit it, “Only I never thought that he, who has always been indifferent to women, would one day regard a woman so important.
• Tonight, we all saw Marcus‘ regard for Cornelia, completely beyond our expectations. His unconditional spoiling of that woman will sooner or later bring destruction to him and his Hartley Group” Hannah disagreed with Steven’s view, “He’s just spoiling his wife, don’t scare people” Steven laughed and said, “Marcus is not ordinary. He’s the president of the Hartley Group, which has business in various fields. He’s the richest man in the world, and with all the honors, danger naturally follows him. If his competitors find out he has a weakness, and that weakness is a woman. What do you think those who are helpless against him will do?” Hannah asked. “You mean they might target Cornelia?” Steven said, “Not might, but already have ” Hannah said, “Cornelia has been in danger? When did this happen? Why didn’t she tell us?” Steven said, “I’m not sure when exactly it happened I just heard Marc questioning Zavier if he knew about someone poisoning, probably someone tried to poison Cornelia and he found out.”
• These words left Hannah terrified. Steven continued “Marc knew what danger Cornelia might face by being with him, yet he still publicly acknowledged her identity without considering Cornelia’s safety Lock how good I am to you and how much I love you.” Hannah said, “Don’t you think Marcus‘ actions are what a normal man should do? He gives Cornelia enough respect, love and sense of security” Steven said, “Are you saying I’m not normal? That I haven’t given you enough respect? Or you feel I haven’t given you security?” Hannah said, “Maybe both” “I love you so deeply, but you feel I haven’t given you enough sense of security” Steven slightly tightened his hold on Hannah’s waist, “Darling, you’re hurting my heart. Believe it or not, I could lay a hand on you right now! Hannah stiffened slightly, looked up at him and smiled faintly. “You have done so before, what’s there to believe or not?” Steven was satisfied with her response, “Good that you remember!” “What are you two whispering about instead of eating?” At the dinner table, everyone was eating in silence, the atmosphere a bit tense. Trying to lighten the mood, Lucas spoke up Steven said, “We’re discussing our bedroom exercises for tonight” Lucas said, “Eat first, then discuss. If you don’t eat enough, you won’t have the energy tonight!”
