Marcus did not notice the subtle change of expression on her. He played with her hair and said softly. “I’ll be busy the next few days. I won’t be home, so take good care of yourself.”

“What?” Cordelia was shocked. She looked at him with her eyes widened.

“What is it that you’re gonna do?”

“I have a competition,” said Marcus flatly. “I’ll be focused on my training these days, so I can’t come home every day.”

“Oh.” Cordelia was slightly disappointed but nodded and continued leaning on him.

Marcus could no longer hold back after falling into silence for a moment. He chuckled. “That’s it? Aren’t you going to ask why I can’t come home every day?

“I heard other people’s wives aren’t like that with their husbands.” His sharp brows were raised.

“Those women are very tense. They’ll call their husbands even if they get home slightly later. But you… are not like them!”

“But you told me you’re going to a competition.” The lady’s voice was coquettish. “Apart from giving you my full support, what else can I say?”

Marcus was intrigued. He smiled and pulled her shoulder over to him.

Cordelia hugged him tighter, sticking her tiny face on his chest. With a coquettish voice, she asked. “Will you really…not come home every day?”

“Yes.”

“How many days, then?”
