Chapter 1543
Cornelia’s gentle voice echoed through the phone, “You’ve been sleeping early these days. What’s up with you
tonight? Anything on your mind?”
Hannah nodded, “Yeah.”
Comelia hit the nail on the head, “Did Steven come to see you?”
Hannah’s eyes widened in surprise, “Nelly, I swear you’re psychic.”
Cornelia chuckled, “No psychic powers here, I just know you. I know that only Steven can make you this troubled.”
Hannah sighed, “Nelly, do you think I’m being foolish?”
Cornelia suddenly turned serious, Hannah, don’t you dare belittle yourself. You’re an amazing, beautiful, and
understanding woman. Believe in yourself.”e2
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHannah replied, “I’m not belittling myself, just stating the facts. Steven hurt me before, yet I can’t forget about him.
I even can’t fall asleep after seeing him.”
Comelia responded, “As the saying goes, it may only take a second to fall for someone, but it can take a lifetime to
forget them. This is perfectly normal. Don’t overthink it.”
Hannah said, “Nelly, you’re the best. Every time I fall into self-doubt, a chat with you always clears my mind.”
Cornelia said, “Hannah, you’re much better than you give yourself credit for.”
These words filled Hannah with a renewed sense of confidence, “Yeah, I’ll remember that. I won’t belittle myself
again. By the way, is my godson asleep?”
Cornelia turned her phone to show Hope, who was playing cheerfully, “He just had his bath. He’s playing with his
toys while he waits for his dad to tuck him in.”
Hannah said, “I just wanted to see my godson, and here you are showing off your relationship.”
Comelia chuckled, “I’m not showing off!”
Hannah said, “You said your son is waiting for his dad to put him to sleep. That means your husband is hands-on
with the baby. Isn’t that showing off?”
Cornelia laughed, “My husband indeed takes care of the baby. He even brings him to the office. How’s that?”
Hannah said, “Enough. Let me get a good look at my handsome godson. Turn his face this way.”
Hope múrmured, “Mama.”
Hannah was overjoyed, “Nelly, my godson can say ‘mama’?”
Cornelia said, “Yeah, this little rascal first said ‘dada’, then ‘mama’. Seems like he knows who takes care of him
more.”
Hannah said, “Godson, say ‘godmother’!”
Hope excitedly flapped his chubby little hands at Hannah on the phone, “Mama.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHannah said, “Hey, son! Nelly, your son is so cute and handsome. Look at his pretty little face. He’s going to be a
heartbreaker when he grows up.”
Cornelia said, “Your godson takes after his father.”
Hannah said, “Cornelia, if you continue this way, I’m not going to video call you anymore.”
Cornelia smiled and suggested, “You seem to love children. Have you thought about having one of your own?”
Hannah said, “I’ll consider that when I find a man willing to have one with me.”
Not long after registering their marriage, Hannah wanted to have a child with Steven but was told by him that she
wasn’t worthy of bearing his child. Ever since then, she stopped wanting children.
Cornelia said, “Steven might be a good candidate.”
Hannah said, “Nelly, stop teasing me. I have no intentions of reconciling with him.
Cornelia said, “Who said anything about reconciling? Ever heard of ‘keep the child, not the father’?”
At this, Hannah understood Cornelia’s meaning, her eyes lighting up in excitement, “Nelly, where do you come up
with these crazy ideas?”
