Chapter 154
The young couple got back together, and the two grannies at home were super happy about it.
However, the old people’s thinking is relatively conservative, so they thought things should go step by step. They never imagined the young couple would move in together so quickly novelbin
“You guys go ahead, I will call back later Granny Rebecca quickly hung up the video call
Then, excited, she called out to Granny Luisa, Luisa, I’ve got some great news for you”
Granny Luisa was exercising when she heard Granny Rebecca’s call, so she hurried over, What’s the good news?”
Granny Rebecca said with a big grin, “By this time next year, we should be holding our great– grandchildren!”
Granny Luisa pouted, “Great–grandchildren? The couple hasn’t even gotten back together yet! Where do we go to hold great–grandchildren? Anyway, I only want to hold the baby they have together, not from someone else I don’t know”
Granny Rebecca, “Of course it’s the baby from the two of them. I just saw them living together in the video call. How could they not be back together? it’s just that young people are shy and dont want to tell us old ladies everything”
Granny Luisa’s eyes lit up, “Are they really living together?”
Granny Rebecca nodded vigorously, “I called Nelly’s phone, and Jay answered: He even told me Nelly was tired and still sleeping”
Granny Luisa said happily. “That’s my grandson! He may not talk much, but I didn’t expect him to win Nelly back so quickly“,
Granny Rebecca, 11’s because Nelly is so kind hearted. Just a few nice words from him and she’s back*
Granny Luisa, “good good good, it’s all thanks to you and how well you raised your granddaughter.”
Granny Rebecca. “Your grandson isn’t too bad either”
Granny Luisa, “He said he tired Nelly out. He’s such a big guy, he should’ve taken better care of her. I need to find a nutritionist to help Nelly get her strength back.”
Granny Rebecca. “There you go worrying again. Young people nowadays arent like us back in the day. They know how to find balance”
Granny Luisa, “True Let’s just wait to hold our great–grandchildren”
The grandson they were talking about was actually frowning at the moment.
Once Cornelia woke up, shed definitely call her granny back, who would definitely mention Jeremy being with her.
Cornelia wasnt stupid. After thinking about it, she might connect the dots and figure out that Jeremy was him
Before she accepted Jeremy, he couldn’t reveal his identity, so he had to make “Jeremy” appear at the hospital to protect himself.
How could he make “Jeremy naturally appear at the hospital?
Marcus looked down at Cornelia, who had a furrowed brow, and couldn’t help but gently smooth out the wrinkle with his hand
Cornelia didn’t wake up until 5 pm.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Marcus sitting by her bed. She was startled and sat up quickly, President Hartley, what are you doing in my room?”
“This is a hospital room. You fainted this morning “Marcus reached out and touched her forehead, his movements natural and practiced
Cornelia didn’t know that he had done this countless times already
“Did I faint?” Cornelia held her head and tried to remember. Her last memory was of chatting with Skyler after his surgery. She couldn’t remember anything that happened after that “How’s
Skyler?”
She woke up and asked about Skyler first. Why didn’t she ask why she fainted? Wasnt she more important than Skyler?
Marcus frowned slightly. Do you feel unwell anywhere else?”
Cornelia shook her head, Tm fine”
Marcus pressed a button on the bedside table, and the head of the bed slowly rose. “Sit up and have something to eat first.”
Seeing President Hartley taking care of her personally. Cornelia felt very apologetic, Tresident Hartley, Im so sorry for troubling you to take care of me”
Marcus lied. “Im not the one taking care of you, it’s your husband whas been with you. Don’t you remember?”
Cornelia, My husband?”
How could Jeremy be in the Capital?
How did he know she was here?
Cornelia was full of questions, President Hartley, do you know my husband?”
“After you fainted, a man came and said his name was Jeremy, your husband, and asked us to leave you in his care. He’s been with you since this morning, and before he left, he prepared food for you “Marcus pointed to the thermos on the bedside table, “You woke up just a few minutes ago, and he found me, saying you might not want to see him, and asked me to take care of you before he left”
Marcus said such a long sentence without any pause, looking casual, but in fact, he had silently recited it dozens of times in his heart, and his palms were still sweating
Marcus had faced so many powerful opponents and had always been able to overcome them with his strong psychological quality He hadn’t been this nervous even during his first World Business Conference
Why was he so nervous when lying to Cornelia?
Cornelia fet that something was off, but she couldn’t pinpoint what it was
Marcus could see her inner confusion, “If you don’t believe me, check your phone. I saw him send you a message”
Cornelia took out her phone, opened Whatsapp, and saw nine unread messages. She opened them and read them.
The content of the nine messages was similar, basically telling her not to worry, as he would take care of everything
After reading the messages Cornelia replied. “Jeremy are you in the Capital? Did you come to see me today?”
Marcus’s phone in his pocket vibrated, and he knew it was a message from Cornelia, but he didn’t dare to take it out and look
He opened the thermos on the bedside table and took out one small plate at a time, placing them in front of Cornelia on the table. He then picked up a spoon and tried to feed her, “Open
your mouth”
This was way too intimate, and Cornelia didn’t dare to open her mouth. “President Hartley, I can do it myself “
“Alright, you eat first. Marcus handed her the spoon and left the room, taking out his phone to reply to Cornelia’s Whatsapp message happened to be in the Capital on a business trip, and then I ran into you at the hospital. I know you might not want to see me, so I leave first ”
Ahhough Cornela didn’t quite believe in all these coincidences, she still repled with two words “Thank you!”
Jeremy “We’re husband and wife, you don’t have to be so polite with met
Cornelia: “Don’t think that just because you took care of me this time, I’ll change my mind.”
Jeremy: “How many times do I have to take care of you for you to change your mind?”
Cornelia: “No matter how many times, it won’t work!”
Seeing Cornelia’s last message, Marcus silently lit a cigarette and took one drag after another.
