Marcus looked at her quietly with a dark look. There was no expression on his cold face but a complex emotion that surged at the bottom of his dark eyes.
Cordelia suddenly realized it. ‘I have been meeting clients and studying client profiles, so he better not misunderstand it…’
“Marcus! I-I don’t mean it like that!” She hurried to explain, “I definitely won’t betray our marriage. What I said about lying to you is…”
She paused, licked her lips, and said very softly, “If you realized I don’t deserve you being so nice to me one day, what would you do?”
Marcus looked at her for some time before he chuckled. He did not say anything. Instead, he hugged her gently and stroked her long hair.
Cordelia’s face was pressed against his chest as she listened to his powerful heartbeats. It gave her a great sense of security.
“Stop thinking so much.” His voice was hoarse. “Sleep.”
Cordelia grinned and wrapped her arms around his waist, closing her eyes softly.
Sleep was incredibly sound to her.
Marcus was used to sleeping alone and did not sleep much through the night. His arm was Cordelia’s to rest her head on, and his entire being was hers to hug. He dared not move.
When he woke up groggily in the morning, he realized that the girl was clinging to him like an octopus. One of her fair legs was hooked over his hips, and her arms were wound around his neck. She was also grinding her teeth.
She did not look presentable in her sleep, but it was adorable and real.
