Chapter 1123
"He said he didn't know, amd he was looking for them, but does that mean he was not involved in what happened back then?" Cornelia thought about the letter from Granny Rebecca's diary. She had no idea that the letter was written by Granny Rebecca, and its contents pained her.
Cornelia could feel the despair of the woman who wrote the letter.
Back in the day, an unmarried girl had a child, and the man who once promised her a lifetime of happiness disappeared after she gave birth. She and her child were left alone to face the ridicule and expulsion from their neighbors.
The pain that Cornelia had gone through was nothing compared to even a tenth of what Granny Rebecca had to endure. With her grandmother and friends by her side, it was almost unbearable for Cornelia, let alone her grandmother back then.
Cornelia didn't know how Granny Rebecca had borne those hard days, but she knew that it must have been a pain that Granny Rebecca would not want to mention in her life. So, Granny Rebecca later completely separated her past from her present. She even refused to admit that her past self and her present self were the same person.
Now thinking about it, Cornelia was still heartbroken, "I have read the letter my grandmother wrote. Back then, an unmarried girl raising a child all by herself, how much she had to bear, does he know?"
Alfredo said, "Cornelia, calm down, listen to me.’
Cornelia scoffed, "He must know, and he also knows that his family would not let him marry a girl from outside. He knew everything but did not make any preparations for them before returning to the Capital, did not prevent possible things from happening, leaving my grandmother alone to face the disaster. The only thing to be thankful for is that my grandmother, amid those mocking voices, managed to survive with my father.’
Alfredo said, "I'm sorry!"
Cornelia said, "You owe me nothing. Don't apologize to me. If you get the chance, go to Rosenberg, go to the graveyard and apologize to my grandmother.’
Alfredo said, "I will. The matter of you being a descendant of the Duran family.’
Cornelia said, "Don't worry, | know you want me to keep it a secret, | will keep it. And | don't want to believe what | heard today anyway.’
