Chapter 758
First off, she provided them with jobs and projects, but the people from the Padillas didn’t make good use of it, they screwed up everything. Then, she decided to just wire them money every month.
She was loaded, so no matter how much the Padillas needed, she had it covered. She often turned a blind eye to their greedy antics, still treating them like friends.
Every time the Padillas came to her, whether for money or anything else, she was always ready to give.
But she never saw it coming, this time when they came to her, they wanted to smear the reputation of her beloved Cornelia. They didn’t. get a warm welcome, of course.
“Granny Luisa, what’s this…” Sabrina noticed Granny Luisa’s firm attitude and realized that she shouldn’t have listened to her son and come here today.
Not only did they gain nothing from this visit, but they also upset Granny Luisa. Now they were wondering if Granny Luisa would still send them money next month.
*Granny Luisa, we’ll take our leave then. We’ll visit you another day.” Roman was as cool as a cucumber, bidding Granny Luisa goodbye as if nothing happened.
Cornelia was a knockout, so it was no surprise Marcus Hartley would protect her. But what really threw him off was that Granny Luisa was also so protective of Cornelia.
Cornelia’s past scandal was a big deal. Anyone who cared to ask would know about it. But Granny Luisa just wouldn’t believe it. He wondered if she was getting confused in her old age.
The Padilla mother and son had just left when Granny Rebecca suddenly started shaking, her mouth opening to spit out a mouthful of blood, scaring Granny Luisa half to death. “Rebecca, don’t worry about Nelly. Marc will handle it.”
Granny Rebecca clutched Granny Luisa’s sleeve tightly, “Luisa, Nelly didn’t do any of those shameful things. You have to believe her. You have to explain to Marc, Nelly has always been a good girl, and she wouldn’t do such things…”
Granny Luisa patted Granny Rebecca’s back, soothing her, “Rebecca, save your breath. Even if you didn’t say it, I’d still believe Nelly. Marc isn’t brainless. He will figure out the truth. Trust me, He will believe in Nelly too.”
“Please, you must believe in Nelly, you must…” Granny Rebecca muttered her last words before her eyes closed, and she passed out.
The past event had caused significant harm and impact on Cornelia, and Granny Rebecca had been feeling very guilty about it. She always thought that if she hadn’t gone home visit that day, maybe none of those things would’ve happened, and Cornelia wouldn’t have ended up homeless at such a young age.
So when these people brought up the past today, she got really pissed.
