Chapter 1100
Even though Marcus knew they had to leave, he still kissed her lips till they swelled.
“Are we still going?” Marcus asked
With her face flushed, Comelia firmly said, “Yes! Dr. Lester is already here. Let him give you a quick check–up first.
We can leave afterwards”
“I’ve told you, there’s no need for that Stop arranging doctors for me” Marcus said
“You’re the one who knows your body best. You’re an adult, not a kid. See a doctor when needed, take your meds
and rest. Stop saying you’re fine” Cornelia replied.
“Exactly, I know my body best. Mind your own business from now on Marcus said.

Half an hour later, Comelia and Marcus arrived again at Zavier’s burnt down yard.
Steven, Lucas and their wives who were waiting there had different expressions upon seeing the couple. Some
were happy, others not so much.
Hannah and Rosie were obviously thrilled, “Cornelia“”
Comelia, equally excited, replied, “Hannah! Rosie”
Rosie rushed towards Cornelia and gave her a warm hug.
Hannah lifted her foot to run towards Comelia but was pulled back by Steven after only one step, “Darling,
remember what I told you. Don’t get too close to Cornelia”
Hannah struggled but couldn’t break free. Steven’s grip was so strong that it hurt. She looked at Steven’s hand
tightly gripping her wrist, “Steven, what are you so afraid of? Are you afraid that I, the substitute, will also disappear
suddenly?”
Steven’s face darkened, “Hannah!”
Steven was kind on the surface but ruthless inside. Those who crossed him never ended well.
Hannah, having been with him for many years, knew him better than anyone. Some things could be mentioned
once. If she kept bringing them up, the only one who got hurt in the end was her. “I understand my place. I know
what I should and shouldn’t do.” Hannah said.
Satisfied with her answer, Steven let go, “Go.”
Hannah walked towards Cornelia.
Cornelia held her hand, “How long have you been here? You must be tired standing. Shall we find a place to sit?”

Rosie said, “No matter what they say, I have lots of questions about Skyler for Cornelia. Let’s go to a coffee shop
first.”
Cornelia knew Hannah had many things she felt helpless about, “Rosie, wait a moment.”
Rosie turned to Lucas, “Have you decided where to go?”
“Today, you’re all here for me. Although my yard has been reduced to ashes, I should still host you properly.
Suddenly, Zavier’s voice echoed in the yard, and everyone noticed he was already standing at the entrance.
“Zavier? Is that you?” Steven could hardly believe the man in front of him was Zavier, but his voice was
unmistakably familiar.
His hair had turned completely gray, his face extremely tired, like a man close to fifty, not a vibrant young man in
his thirties.
Zavier smiled and said. “Don’t you recognize me?”
He turned to look at Marcus, his smile turning more eerie, “Marcus, are you satisfied with my new look?”
