Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1248

Chapter 1248 

Hannah chuckled, “Nelly, the issue here ain’t whether I care a hoot or not. His ex is back in the picture, and he’s the one that suggested we call it quits. He’s the one that packed his stuff and scrammed from our place overnight.” 

Hannah took a deep breath, trying to swallow her anget, “And, you might not know this.” 

“Uh huh, spill it.” Cornelia said 

Thinking about the past humiliations, Hannah’s eyes welled up. She quickly lifted her head, forcing herself not to shed a tear, “We were legally married, but he said I wasn’t good enough to bear his children, said no woman other than his ex is worthy of him He’s a man with a big sexual needs, couldn’t keep his hands to himself. So on the day we tied the knot, he went and got a vasectomy” 

All this news left Cornelia speechless. What did Steven take Hannah for? Not every woman was worthy to bear his children. 

Who the hell did he think he was? Did he really think every woman was dying to have his child? What a joke! 

Hannah poured them some more drinks, and amidst the clinking glasses, she added, “I’ve thought about divorcing before, but Steven always warned me off. This time, when he suddenly proposed a divorce, I was quite shocked, wondering if something was up with him. But then, when I found out his ex was back in town, it all made sense.” 

“Just live your life then. Let him and his ex live happily ever after. And you, Hannah, you’ve still got your freedom and happiness.” Cornelia comforted. 

Hannah smiled, “That’s the plan. Over the years, I’ve been living under so much pressure, constantly worrying people would find out about me and Steven. After the divorce, I felt like a weight had been lifted. I feel so much lighter.” 

Hannah sounded carefree, but Cornelia saw the sadness in her eyes. At that moment, Cornelia saw a reflection of herself in Hannah, the facade of strength. 

Pretending to be indifferent when she was actually not okay. Pretending not to care when she cared too much. 

Cornelia had told herself, that she was not Wonder Woman. She could express her real emotions. But, she didn’t know how 

During the day, she could chat with anyone, like a normal person. Only in the quiet of the night, she’d drop the act, lying awake till dawn. 

Only she knew how many sleepless nights she spent over Marcus. 

What was Marcus doing while she was losing sleep? Maybe, he was whispering sweet nothings to his new flame. 

Cornelia picked up her glass and downed two gulps. One glass didn’t do the trick, so she poured herself another, and another, knocking back three glasses before slamming her glass on the table. 

Hannah looked at her, “Nelly” 

Cornelia said, “If it’s over, it’s over. Nobody’s gonna drop dead without the other.”
