Chapter 874
Cornelia didn’t respond, but Marcus knew she had heard him. After he had said his piece, he left Granny Rebecca’s room, even thoughtfully closing the door behind him for
Cornelia
As he stepped outside, he saw Abigail and Zack eavesdropping at the door. Those two really took after Cornelia in some ways. “Go wait in the living room. Quit snooping
around here.”
“But Nelly’s in there all by herself, we can’t just leave her,” Abigail said.

“Trust her, was Marcus’ reply.
Abigail and Zack wanted to stick around, but seeing Marcus’ confidence made them decide to follow him to the living room.
After Marcus left, Cornelia went over to Granny Rebecca’s bedside, carefully taking her hand. “Granny…”
As she called out to her grandmother, she couldn’t help but cry. Her heart ached as if it was being carved out, making it hard for her to breathe. It took her some time to calm herself down before she could continue. “Granny, it’s been a while since we had a proper chat. Let’s talk today.”
Granny Rebecca’s hand was cold and stiff, but Cornelia held it against her face. “Granny, are you upset with me for not having a baby like you wanted? Granny, I’ve been trying to get pregnant. If you could wake up, you’d be holding my baby in a few months.”

She waited, and waited, but the miracle she was hoping for never came.
Alone in the room, only her voice echoed. “Granny, have you really left me? Do you know how important you are to me? You must know, you must know how much you mean to me, yet you still left me.
“Granny, do you remember what you told me when I was 18? You said if I worked hard and got into a good university, you’d grant me a wish.
