Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband
Chapter 1328

Chapter 1328 

They’d spend Christmas Eve together, and as soon as the midnight bells chimed, they’d be the first to wish each other well. But now, the person celebrating Christmas with her had changed. 

Everything from before was in the past. 

As Cornelia reminisced, the midnight bells rang once again. At the same time, Cornelia’s phone buzzed. She thought it would be a message from Abigail and Zack, but the name on the screen read ‘Ben‘. 

After the collapse of the Hartley Group and the news of Marcus‘ death, Ben had disappeared. Cornelia didn’t expect him to call at this moment. She picked up. “Merry Christmas, Ben!” 

Ben replied, “Merry Christmas, Cornelia! It’s been a while, how are you?” 

Cornelia answered briefly, “I’m good. You?” 

Ben replied, “I’m good too.” 

Then, they fell into silence. Ben tried to break the silence, “What have you been up to?” 

Cornelia answered, “Work.” 

Ben asked, “What kind of work? Can you tell me?” 

Cornelia told him, “I’m writing a script.” 

Ben asked, “What kind of script?” 

Cornelia simply replied, “A TV script.” 

Ben asked, and Cornelia answered, each response brief and to the point, no extra words. 

Ben tried to mend things, “Can you tell me more? After all the time we’ve worked together, we can’t be that much strangers.” 

Yet, Cornelia didn’t want to talk about herself, she turned the conversation to Ben, “That’s all with my work, nothing much to say. Ben, where are you working now?” 

Ben told her. “I’m at a start–up. Would you be interested? If you want, I could help you get a position here.” 

Cornelia laughed, “No need, I really like my current job.” 

Then, they fell into silence again. Ben started another topic again, “I heard you’re pregnant. How many months are you? When’s the due date?” 

Cornelia answered, “March.” 

Ben asked concernedly, “March isn’t that far off. Are you still working? Have you considered taking a break to prepare for the baby?” 

Cornella knew Ben very well about his personality and the way he spoke from their time working together. This concern didn’t sound like Ben. 

Could someone be coaching him? Or was he just passing along someone else’s message? 

Cornelia asked, “Is there someone else with you?” 

Ben sounded surprised, then answered, “Yes. My mom is here.” 

Cornelia said, “Well, I won’t keep you from your family’s Christmas. Goodbye!” 

Ben hastily said, “Cornelia, wait.” 

Cornelia asked, “What else is there?” 

Ben said, ‘Merry Christmas! I hope you and your baby are healthy and happy!” 

Cornelia said, “Thanks for your wishes! If you called today because someone told you to, tell them not to bother with such meaningless things in the future. I’m not grateful at all.”
