Chapter 1115
The ancestral recognition ceremony organized by Grandpa Duran turned out to be even more grand than Cornelia
had anticipated Grandpa Duran not only meliculously arranged the venue but also invited many people whom
Comelia didn’t recognize, but could tell they held prominent positions
Grandpa Duran introduced them to Cornelia one by one, saying, “Nelly, these two are my brother, Alfredo, and his
wife”
Although Comelia had never met Alfredo in real life, she knew him. He was an important figure who frequently
appeared on the evening news. This was Cornelia’s first time encountering such a prominent person, and she
became nervous to the point of stuttering, “H. Hello“”
Alfredo, wearing reading glasses, glanced at Cornelia from head to toe and responded coldly, “Hmm.“

grandchildren? And now you meet my child with such coldness?”
Alfredo paused for a moment, then cleared his throat and sterly said, “Your name is Cornelia? From Rosenberg? No
other relatives left in your family?”
His words camed a sense of hostility, which not only failed to ease Grandpa Duran’s anger but rather made him
even angrier, “Alfredo, what kind of attitude is this?” Alfredo continued, “Come over here, I have something to
discuss with you privately.”
Grandpa Duran said. “Nelly is my recognized granddaughter, she is already part of our family. If you have
something to say, say it directly without any
concealment.”
Alfredo asked, “Are you sure you want me to say it in front of her?”
Grandpa Duran replied, “Say it!”
Alfredo said, “After all these years, you haven’t forgotten your wife and children. Now you suddenly bring a girl back
and make a big fuss about recognizing her as your granddaughter. Don’t you think there’s something wrong with
this?”
Grandpa Duran asked, “What do you mean by something wrong?”
Alfredo’s tone slightly intensified, “What’s wrong? Can’t you see? That invaluable mansion in the East District,
you’ve already arranged for it to be transferred to her Aren’t you afraid that she’s using sweet words to deceive
you, just for your money?”
Grandpa Duran replied excitedly. “If Nelly is after my wealth, that would be great. I dream of her being a greedy girl
so that I don’t have to put in so much effort to make her my granddaughter”
Comelia listened silently, as she had anticipated such voices and was able to face them calmly. However, she didn’t

stronger than she had anticipated.
Alfredo said, “If that’s the case, as long as you’re happy.”
Grandpa Duran replied. “As long as all of you treat Cornelia well, I’ll be happy”
Alfredo said “Rest assured. Since you recognized her as your granddaughter, she’s now a part of our Duran family
Everyone in the Duran family will treat her well”
Finally satisfied with this response, Grandpa Duran said, “Remember what you said today. If anyone from the Duran
family dares to bully Nelly in the future, you will be held responsible
Alfredo responded, “Look at you, already this old, yet still behaving like a child. I made a promise, and naturally, I
will take responsibility. Do you really need to lecture me? Now that everyone is gathered, introduce this child to
everyone first.”
The Duran family was an enormous family with a large number of members. Grandpa Duran first introduced
Cornelia to the elders in the family before introducing her to the younger members. With so many people, Cornelia
had to concentrate to remember everyone’s names Consequently, even before she finished meeting everyone, she
was already exhausted, but she persevered
