Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 338

"Cornelia, have you ever had a setback in love? Why are you so skeptical about love at such a young age?" Briana asked bluntly.

"I wouldn't call it a setback, but yeah, something's definitely impact my view on love." Cornelia thought of someone, the words they once told her. She couldn't deny that her doubt about love was tied to that person, but it wasn't entirely because of them.

She felt that many people nowadays married for materialistic reasons, usually if the other party had money, a house, and a car. Guys were looking for a well-off woman to skip the twenty years of struggle. Girls, on the other hand, wanted to marry a rich guy so they could shop till they drop without worrying about money.

Having seen too many of these cases, Cornelia felt that marriage was now more like a transaction than two people coming together. Life after marriage was no longer about spending your life with your partner, but more about spending your life with money, houses, and cars. It was like living together for convenience, love was nowhere to be found.

Briana asked, "So, Cornelia, you don't actually love your husband?"

Marcus, who had been silent all along, instantly tensed up at Briana's question. He was even more eager than Briana to hear Cornelia's answer, but also afraid of what she would say.

"Whether I love him or not is not important, what's important is that we're married." Since both of them knew Jeremy, Cornelia didn't shy away from speaking openly, "As long as Jeremy wants to make a good life with me, I'll do my part to maintain our marriage and live well together. I would never betray him. If one day he has another woman and wants a divorce, I'll respect his decision."

Cornelia's answer was both within and beyond Marcus' expectations. He should have known long ago that Cornelia shared his perspective, that marriage was about two people living a good life together and never betraying that commitment.
