Chapter 806
Just as she felt him nearing, Cornelia cracked one eye open to see him toweling off his hair, with no intention of using a blow dryer.
He was of weak constitution, and could easily catch a cold with wet hair. Even though she was still pissed, Cornelia couldnât help but worry for him, Iâm not asleep yet. Use
the blowâdryerâ
Marcus asked, âYouâre not asleep? Or did I wake you up?â
Cornelia replied, âI wasnât sleepingâ
Marcus chuckled grabbed the blowâdryer and sat at the edge of her bed. âYou help me blow.â
Cornelia retorted, âNo way!â
Men should not be spoiled!
She had helped him blowâdry his hair once at a hotel a couple of days ago, and now every time he wanted to dry his hair, he expected her to do it. She absolutely couldnât spoil him, or heâd definitely develop bad habits.
Even though she was adamant about not spoiling him, Cornelia obediently sat up, tonk the blowâdryer from his hand. She turned it on, adjusted it to the perfect temperature, and started drying his hair.
His hair was short and the blowâdryer was powerful, so it didnât take long for his hair to dry.
When Cornelia handed the blowâdryer back to him, he took the chance to hold her hand, âCornelia, I apologize for Bri. She wonât do it again.â
Cornelia said, âWho asked you to apologize for her? Sheâs an adult, canât she apologize herself? Why does she need your help?â
Marcus responded, Iâm punishing her to reflect at home and not allow her to step out of the house. Sheâll apologize to you in person tomorrow.â
Cornelia said, âWhy are you punishing her? Sheâs still a child, itâs normal to make mistakes. Donât punish her.â It was Cornelia who said Briana was an adult and needed to take responsibility for her actions, and it was also her who said Briana was still a child. She really had it both ways.
Marcus replied, âShe must be punished, or sheâll dare to sneak photos of us again.â
Cornelia said, âIf she wants to take photos, let her. Itâs nothing to be ashamed of.â
Marcus asked, âAre you going soft?â
Indeed, Corneliaâs heart had softened. Briana had parents, but it was as if she had none. She had never experienced parental love and her brother and grandmother were the closest people to her If her beloved brother punished her, the little girl would definitely feel hurt.
Cornelia said, âAnyway, donât punish her. Sheâs preparing for the anime convention and sheâs one of the organizers. If sheâs grounded, there might be problems thereâ
Suddenly, Marcus leaned down and gently bit Corneliaâs nose.
Cornelia tried to dodge, but her waist was tightly held by him. His palm was like iron, firmly pressing against her waist. With a slight push, she fell into his arms, their bodies pressed closely together.
They were both wearing thin pajamas and Cornelia felt as if she could sense the contours of his abs. The word that flashed across her mind was
Not long after Marcus held Cornelia, he pushed her away. He then stood up, and hurriedly walked towards the bathroom.
hunk.
The sound of running water in the bathroom resumed, continuing for quite a while without stopping Cornelia waited, almost falling asleep, but he still didnât come out. So
she went to sleep first.
Meanwhile, Marcus was still in the bathroom, taking cold showers one after another. After a long time, the cold water finally washed away the heat in his body. He turned off the showerhead and helplessly shook his head
He knew that the girl had a great attraction for him, but he couldnât have her now. Why was he still provoking her in such a situation?
When Cornelia was sleeping in a daze, she vaguely felt someone hug her from behind. But she was too sleepy to open her eyes, and fell back asleep.
