Chapter 1343
I’m not doing this just for you, to be honest, I’m also a bit smitten.” Abigail paused before continuing, “I’ve thought
about a possibility, not sure if I should share it with you.”
Cornelia gave her a look, “Is there anything we can’t talk about now?”
Abigail replied, “Before I agreed to date Dylan, I found out something from him.”
“What’s that?” Cornelia asked.
“Dylan never once betrayed Marcus. He was purposely planted by Marcus next to Brennen Hartley. The evidence of
Brenner’s crimes was mainly collected by Dylan from within.” Abigail answered.
Marcus was a master at winning people over; his ability and charm naturally made people bow to him.
Just like Cornelia, her loyalty and respect for him was apparent when she was his assistant. She thought, Dylan’s
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtattitude must be similar to hers. Regardless, her story with him was over, “I have no interest in the Hartley family’s
business.”
Abigail replied, “I’m not trying to discuss their family issue with you, but something else came to mind because of
this.”
“What is that?” Cornelia asked.
“Could there be some unknown reasons why Marcus divorced you?” Abigail said.
Cornelia looked at Abigail, “Did Dylan say anything to you?”
“If only he could tell me something, that’d be great. He’s very cautious. No matter how I pester him, I can’t get
anything about Marcus from him.” Abigail responded.
“Abby, you don’t need to dig into the Hartley family’s affairs. I don’t want to think about why he betrayed our
marriage either. Whatever the reason, it doesn’t matter now.” Cornelia said, lowering her head and gently stroking
her belly, “Now I just hope my baby can be born healthy and safe. I will raise the baby well. I don’t care about
anything else.”
Abigail said, “Alright, I won’t bring it up again. Let’s raise the baby together.”
Zack chimed in, “Nelly, your belly is so big. Could it be twins?”
Cornelia laughed, “Zack, what are you thinking? I have monthly check-ups, if it were twins, the doctor would have
told me by now.”
Abigail asked, “Since it’s not twins, do you know if it’s a boy or a girl?”
“The doctor didn’t reveal the baby’s gender. But it doesn’t matter, whether it’s a boy or a girl, I’ll love them all the
same.” Cornelia answered.
Abigail said, “Young people nowadays don’t have the notion of preferring boys over girls. Unlike my grandparents’
generation, they only liked boys, not girls. My mother was scolded by my grandmother for giving birth to me, a girl.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuckily, my mother always protected me.”
Cornelia said, “Didn’t you two say you wanted to invite your parents to Riverton for the holidays? I think you should
invite them this year.”
Zack said, “That’s what Abby and I planned, and they can even meet your baby.”
Cornelia replied, “Alright, let’s plan on that then.”
Whenever the three of them were together, they always had endless topics to chat about. An afternoon passed by
just like that, filled with conversations. After dinner, Zack and Abigail had to head back to Riverton immediately.
Since their studio was officially starting operations tomorrow, they couldn’t have all three bosses missing.
The weather was cold, and Cornelia wasn’t in the best condition to drive them to the airport, so she arranged for a
driver to do so. However, Cornelia insisted on walking them to the gate.
Abigail said, “Nelly, you should go back. It’s freezing outside. Don’t catch a cold.”
Cornelia smiled and said, “I want to watch you guys leave.”
Zack said, “Please, let’s get going.”
