Chapter 664
Suddenly, Marcus reached out his hand, his slender, icy fingers gliding over her cheek, gently tucking her stray
bangs behind her ear. “I like it.”
He liked everything she did for him.
Hearing his words, Cornelia gave a faint smile, revealing dimples, “Then you go to bed first”
Marcus was a clean freak. He wouldn’t get into bed without taking a shower first “I’m going to take a shower”
“Go ahead.” Comelia turned and dashed into the bathroom, first turning on the heater, then adjusting the water
temperature for him “Just take a quick rinse. Don’t hang in there too long and catch a cold”
Marcus would never wear hotel–provided sleepwear. Sure enough, Cornelia found brand new pajamas and towels in
the dressing area. She handed them to him, “Go take your shower.”
After pushing him into the bathroom, Cornelia hurried out the door. She had just asked the front desk to prepare

The quickest remedy for cold hands and feet was drinking ginger juice. This was a trick her grandmother used to
use when she experienced the same
By the time Cornelia returned with the ginger juice, Marcus had just stepped out of the bathroom, his hair still wet.
He looked at her with a puzzled expression.
Before he could ask, Cornelia explained, “I had the hotel staff make some ginger juice. Come sit down and have
some.”
Marcus, “Okay”
While he was drinking. Cornelia grabbed a hairdryer. “I’ll help dry your hair.”
Marcus simply said “okay” He appeared calm, but his heart was in turmoil.
He couldn’t take his eyes off her as he watched her in the mirror, standing behind him. He had never known how
wonderful it felt to be loved and cherished by someone How he wished time could just freeze at this moment…
He watched as she held the hairdryer in one hand, and gently ran her other hand through his hair, directing the
airflow towards his head.
His hair was short and the dryer was powerful. It didn’t take long to dry.
Cornelia put away the hairdryer and sat next to him, grabbing his hand to feel its temperature. “Why is it still so
cold? Should we go home now? Or should we call Dr Lester?”
Marcus, “It’s okay, don’t worry”
He told her not to worry, but how could she not? She was always worried, afraid something might happen to him.
“Finish your ginger juice and then rest in bed.”
Marcus. “Okay”
Tonight, the word he said most was “okay” Everything else was said by Cornelia.
After he finished drinking, Cornelia was about to take the cup away, but he stopped her. “I’m sorry!”
Cornelia was startled, “Why are you suddenly apologizing?”

Cornelia, “We are only in our twenties, we still have many years to live. As long as you get better, we can go on as
many dates as you want. This one doesn’t matter.”
Despite their date ending poorly due to his health, she did not blame him, but instead comforted him.
At that moment, a thought crossed Marcus’s mind. Perhaps the hardships he experienced as a child were God’s
way of saving his luck for meeting her and making her his
wife
Cornelia said, ‘Go to bed now. I’ll take a shower and be right back.”
Cornelia didn’t realize what she had just said. After telling Marcus to rest, she took her pajamas and went to the
bathroom.
In the shower, looking at her naked reflection in the mirror, Cornelia finally realized that she and he were really
going to share a bed tonight.
They were both adults, and as a married couple, it was perfectly normal to be intimate. But they lacked emotional
foundation, and with Marcus’s poor health…
