Chapter 84
Marcus frowned irritably and quickly replied. 1 can go see your grandma, but I don’t want to see you”
His words were filled with strong disgust for her, and Cornelia didn’t understand why he hated her so
much, nor did she want to know.
All Cornelia cared about was that as long as he came to see her grandma, it would help her feel better.
She replied [Then let’s set a time, and Ill stay out of your way when you come ]
Marcus replied Tomorrow afternoon]
Cornelia type [My grandma’s in room 1003 of the third building at the Second Hospital. When you
come, please don’t tell her about our plans to get a divorce. Thanks a lot!]
After sending the message, Cornelia waited for a while without receiving a reply, so she put her phone
away and told her grandma, “Granny, Jeremy said he’ll come see you tomorrow afternoon”
“Good, good.” Granny Rebecca was delighted at the news, but then became a little nervous, ‘Nelly,
should I dress up a bit? I want to make a good impression on my grandson–in–law”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCornelia smiled and said, “Granny, he’s your grandson–in–law, not your big boss.”
Her grandma replied. In my heart, he’s more important than any boss.”
The more her grandma valued her grandson–in–law, the greater the pressure Cornelia felt. And she
was afraid that tomorrow Jeremy would spill the beans.
Every time she thought about this, it felt like there was a huge weight on her chest, making it hard to
breathe.
Seeing that it was getting late, her grandma said, “Nelly, you have work tomorrow. You should go back
and rest. Don’t let your personal life affect your work.”
“Alright.” During the ten days or so in Rosenberg, Cornelia had been staying at the hospital every day
without getting a good night’s sleep. Her body couldn’t handle it anymore, and with work tomorrow, she
really needed to go home and rest.
After discussing some precautions with the nurse, Cornelia left the hospital
Unexpectedly, she bumped into Ryan at the hospital entrance.
Ryan greeted her first, “Ms Stewart, I thought you were lying to me earlier, but it turns out your
grandma really is sick and in the hospital”
Who would joke about their own grandma? Cornelia didn’t even want to talk to him, “Mr. Colwell, do
you need anything?”
Ryan said, ‘I’m here on your husband’s behalf to check on your grandma. If you need any help, just let
me know, and I do my best to assist you.”
Marcus had only asked him to call the hospital and arrange for the best doctor, regardless of the cost,
to treat Cornelia’s grandma He hadn’t asked him to come to the hospital in person.
Ryan came in person for two reasons: first, to verify the situation, and second, in his eyes, Cornelia
was like a princess who needed to be pampered and appeased. Otherwise, if she wasn’t happy, she
might refuse to divorce again.
If that happened, his reputation as Riverton’s top lawyer would be ruined by Marcus.
Cornelia said, “Just help me remind him to come to the hospital tomorrow afternoon to visit my
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgrandma and remind him not to let slip any information”
Ryan said, “Don’t worry, if he promised you, he’ll definitely do it.”
“Please thank him for me!” Cornelia replied and tried to leave, only to be blocked by Ryan again, “What
do you want?”
Ryan asked, “I’m just curious, how could you be interested in other men when you’ve had such a great
husband like Jeremy?”
“Can’t I just be interested in losers?” Cornelia snapped back and walked away
She took a taxi home, planning to get a good night’s sleep so she could be refreshed for work the next
day.
However, the more she wanted to fall asleep early, the more awake her mind became, and she didn’t
fall asleep until the early hours of the morning.
As usual, she didn’t get enough sleep and woke up early, feeling exhausted. To make herself look more
energetic, Cornelia applied heavier makeup than usual.
She arrived at the company on time and prepared hand–ground coffee in advance. As soon as Marcus
arrived, she promptly served him the coffee. After giving him a routine update on his schedule for the
day, she was about to leave when Marcus, who was reviewing documents, called her, “Postpone the
afternoon itinerary.”
