Chapter 1141
Even If Cornelia hadn’t spoken up, Grandpa Augustine would’ve definitely gone to see her, it was just that the timing
was a bit off now.
First off, he had been searching for his wife for so many years, and when he finally found her, she had already
passed on. He was not quite ready to face that fact yet. Secondly, Marcus warned him before leaving that Zavier
might harm Cornelia soon, so it was safest for her to stay in the Capital.
Grandpa Augustine had to keep his promise and protect Cornelia well. He couldn’t let her get hurt, especially not on
his watch.
“Let’s go visit her after a while.” Grandpa Augustine walked over to Cornelia and held her hand tightly again. He

The first time he met Cornelia, he felt incredibly warm, not just because she was his kin, but more importantly, she
was raised by his wife. He could see his wife’s shadow in Cornelia.
Cornelia said, “Grandpa Augustine, don’t be sad. My grandma used to say that life is such, there are goodbyes and
reunions, no one can stay by one’s side forever.”
Grandpa Augustine asked, “How has your grandmother been over the years? Has she had a hard time?”
Cornelia answered, “My grandma raised my father. After he passed away, she had to raise me, which was definitely
hard. But she had her own job, students who respected her, and friends like Granny Luisa. Her life was full. Plus, she
always lived with positivity.
Hearing this, Grandpa Augustine felt a sense of relief. His biggest regret was thinking his wife and child were not
living well, but it seemed they were doing fine. The one who truly needed this family, who couldn’t live without his
family, was him.
“She’s always been a positive and kind person, and I missed her whole life.” Grandpa Augustine sighed with a smile.
“Nelly, it’s getting late. Go rest. Tomorrow, let Brian and his brothers accompany you out for a walk.
“Okay” Cornelia said. Back in her room, Cornelia couldn’t sleep. She was thinking about Marcus all the time.
Where was he now? He should be in Paris in a few hours, right?
When he got to Paris, it would almost be dawn here. Would he call her immediately after he landed?
Thinking of this, Cornelia sent Marcus a message: [Jeremy, I miss you. Call me as soon as you get to Paris. I’ll be
waiting.]
The message was sent, but there was no reply.
At this time, Abigail sent a message: [Cornelia, are you asleep?]
Cornelia replied: [Not yet.]

Abigail continued: [Did you go on a trip with Marcus again? I went to look for you at your house, but only your sister
was home. Weren’t you at home?]
Cornelia: [Abigail, I found my grandfather.]
Abigail [Your grandfather? I remember your grandfather passed away many years ago. My parents never met him.
Be careful about this sudden. appearance of a grandfather, make sure you’re not being fooled.]
Cornelia: [Do you know the Duran family in the Capital?]
Abigail [Who doesn’t?]
Cornelia: [You’ve heard of Augustine, haven’t you?]
Abigail [The famous Augustine from the Capital who does a lot of charitable work?]
Cornelia: [Yes, he’s my grandfather.]
