Chapter 958
“Sister.” Natalia called out.
“Yeah, I’m here.” Cornelia replied.
“Sister” Natalia called again.
I’m here Cornelia reassured her.
“Sister” Natalia called once more.
Cornelia answered patiently through Natalia’s constant calling. With a smile, she asked, “Natalia, are you hungry? I haven’t had a bite all day, how about you keep me company for a meal?”
“I’m hungry” Natalia replied.
Taking Natalia’s hand, Cornelia said, “Let’s freshen up first, then we’ll eat.”
Seeing Cornelia holding her hand, Natalia felt as if all the pain in her body had vanished.
“I’ve just bought a new house and we’re still missing some daily necessities. What do you say we go buy some toothpaste and toothbrushes?” Cornelia proposed.
But Patricia overheard from the living room and said, “Nelly, Marc has already taken care of all the household goods. Your toiletries and skincare products are in the master bedroom, and Ms. Reese’s are in her room.”
“Alright.” Cornelia replied. On returning to the master bedroom, she noticed just how thoughtful Marcus had been.
Not only had he prepared toiletries and skincare products, but he had also considerately arranged several sets of clothes for her in the wardrobe.
Moved to tears, Cornelia took out her phone and messaged him: [Jeremy]
Marcus replied quickly: [What’s up?]
[Thank you.] Cornelia responded.
[I’m your husband.] Marcus replied.
Though his reply was brief, Cornelia understood the deep love it conveyed.
Even though she had her own bathroom, Cornelia decided to accompany Natalia to the second bathroom. The two of them stood in front of the bathroom mirror brushing their teeth, and they both started to laugh at their reflections.
“Sister.” Natalia called again.
Cornelia pointed at her nose and said, “Finish brushing your teeth first, you’ve still got toothpaste foam in your mouth.”
Once Natalia had finished brushing her teeth, she turned and hugged Cornelia, “I suddenly feel so happy. So this is what happiness feels like. I can have it
too.”
Cornelia gently patted her back and asked, “Natalia, do you still want to go back to the Reese family?”
