Chapter 252
“Alright, let’s move on from your toe–biting phase and talk about your bed wetting days‘ Clanny Rebecca said, not caring that Granny Luisa was there
Comelia knew she couldn’t stop them, so she gave up As long as they were happy that was all that mattered
What surprised Comelia was that neither of the old ladies asked about Jeremy
After the pizza was ready Granny Luisa had a slice. She really thought it was good, “Nelly, your pizza is delicious Can I bring some to the neighbors?”
“Sure, Granny ni make another one right away” Comelia made another pizza and said, “I bring it to the neighbor”
“To” Granny Luisa went out, chuckling
Granny Rebecca had been living here for a while and had never heard of a neighbor living next door, but she didn’t pry
After lunch, Comelia sat in the yard with the two old ladies, chatting and basking in the sun. It was a moment so beautiful that Cornelia wished time could stop
The grannies were getting older by the day, and the chances to be with them were dwindling Because of this, Comelia decided to stay overnight and return to Riverton tomorrow She wanted to spend as much time with the grannies as she could otherwise she might not get another chance.
After dinner Comelia stayed in a guest room on the second floor She was used to staying in hotels due to her frequent trips so she fell asleep right away without any fuss about the bed
Not long after she lay down, the doorknob was gently turned
Marcus, who was outside turning the knob, was stopped by Granny Luisa who suddenly appeared. “Sneaking into a gif’s room in the middle of the night is not gentlemanly”
Aarcus stopped what he was doing and looked at Granny Luisa, who was full of energy, “Granny, you’re still up?
“Just to prevent you from sneaking into the house and doing something to Nelly, I didn’t dare go to sleep, Granny Luisa replied.
Marcus said “I was just going to check on my wife Why do you make it sound like I’m some kind of villain?”
“Your wide” if you dare, go in there and call her wife and see if she responds,” Granny Luisa challenged him, “Lasked Nelly today, and she has no feelings for you as Marcus if she knew Marcus was Jeremy, she’d divorce you right away”
Cornelia was with him every day He knew her feelings for him better than anyone. Because he knew he dared not reveal his true identity.
Seeing his silence Granny Luisa anxiously said, “What’s your plan? if Nelly even thinks about divorce again, you may not be able to salvage the situation.”
