Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband (END) novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778 

After her father’s death, Cornella couldn’t sleep at night. Even when she did manage to doze off, nightmares would jolt her awake. Only when she was nestled in her grandma’s arms, listening to her lullabies, could she get a bit more sleep. 

“Grandma…” 

“Mhm?” 

“Grandma…” 

“Nelly, I’m here…” Granny Rebecca knew what Cornelia was getting at. Every time she called out, Granny Rebecca would answer, doing everything she 

could to soothe her. 

“Grandma, let’s go to sleep. 

“Alright, let’s sleep” 

Perhaps because she felt at ease, it didn’t take long before Cornelia fell asleep. 

Granny Rebecca looked at her resting face, lightly stroking it. “Silly girl, so many years have passed and you haven’t changed a bit. When you’re scared, you still want to sleep with grandma.” 

Granny Rebecca shifted slightly due to an uncomfortable sitting position, and this movement made Cornelia suddenly open her eyes and mumble, 

“Grandma…” 

“Grandma’s here, Nelly dear. Go back to sleep.” 

“Grandma, you can’t leave me alone, please…” In her dream, Cornelia was still murmuring, clutching tightly onto her grandma’s clothes, scared that she would leave her. 

“Silly girl Granny Rebecca sighed. 

Maybe it was her grandma’s scent, or the comfort of her embrace, but Cornelia slept deeply this time, only waking up in the afternoon. She opened her eyes to two huge faces in front of her, which made her jolt upright. “Grandma, Patricia, what are you guys doing here?” 

Granny Luisa said, “This is the first time I’ve seen our Nelly sleeping. She’s even pretty when she sleeps.” 

Patricia chimed in, “True that. Some people look pretty when they’re awake but turn into a mess when they’re asleep. But our Nelly is beautiful even in sleep.” 

Granny Luisa continued, “Especially those eyelashes of Nelly’s, they’re like little fans. And that face, so soft and rosy, I just want to pinch it….…….. 

Cornelia didn’t know whether to be angry or happy. “Granny, Patricia.. 

Granny Rebecca scolded, “Luisa, enough with the teasing. You’re making the poor kid blush” 

“I’m not blushing. I’m scared! Imagine waking up to a bunch of faces hovering over you. Isn’t that creepy?” Cornelia argued. 

Granny Luisa thought for a moment, I suppose that could be a bit startling.” 

Patricia agreed, “Granny Luisa, we shouldn’t do this anymore. We can’t scare Nelly. If we give her a heart attack, Marc will have our hides.”
