Chapter 1284
Cornelia said, "Grandpa, Patricia has been super good to me. She must be really cut up about this. Can she come in?
I wanna talk to her..."
Grandpa Augustine asked, "Are you really that attached to Patricia? Or you just can't bear to cut all ties with the Hartley family?"
Cornelia was taken aback.
Grandpa Augustine added, "Nelly, if you can't bear to sever ties with the Hartley farnily, let me do it for you."
Cornelia replied, "Grandpa, I can handle my own stuff.
Granny Hartley has been really nice to me; it has nothing to do with the divorce."
Grandpa Augustine said, "Don't be fooled by their fake kindness. They're heartless. They wouldn't even care about your life, let alone the life of the baby you're carrying.
Cornelia asked, "What are you talking about, Grandpa? The baby in my belly? I'm pregnant?"
Grandpa Augustine said, "Yep:"
Cornelia asked, "I'm pregnant? But how come I didn't feel anything?"
At that moment, the doctor came in to check on her.
Overhearing her, he said, "Don't let TV dramas mislead you.
Not all pregnant women get morning sickness. There are many early pregnancy symptoms, and they vary from person to person. I heard you've been sleeping a lot lately."
Cornelia looked at the doctor, "Doctor, am I really pregnant?"
“It's not just my baby. It's a new life. Now that it's here, I'm going to cherish it.
Grandpa Augustine nodded, "Then we'll raise him together.
Even if your child doesn't have a father, we'll make sure he's the happiest child"
Cornelia smiled, "Grandpa, don't underestimate me. I'm pretty good at making money. I can not only support one kid but two."
Grandpa Augustine turned to Jarvis Alexander, whom they had ignored for a while, "Nelly, if you want to find a father for your child, Jarvis Alexander would be a great choice."
Cornelia said, "Grandpa, you shouldn't put Jarvis Alexander in a tough spot. He's a young and talented guy, handsome and rich. He can definitely find a wife. Why should we force him to take on the responsibility of being a father? Jarvis Alexander, don't take my grandpa's words seriously."
Jarvis Alexander smiled, "Forced to take on the role of a father? If I really like someone, I wouldn't mind that"
God knows how much he wanted to tell her, "If your child needs a father, you can consider me. I really want to be your child's father, and even more, I want to be your husband.”
