Chapter 1259
Farley smirked, saying, âWell, duh.â
Hannah retorted. âDonât get too cocky Right, Mam?â
Pandora chuckled, âFarley will have plenty of options in the future. But I think itâs up to him. He can go wherever he wants.â
Hannah sighed, âMom, Farley and I are both your kids with Jeo. Why is he so good at studying while I was always a slow learner? I barely scraped by with a bachelorâs degree.â
âEveryone has their strengths. Your academic performance may not be stellar, but you have strong leadership and empathy. Thatâs why you won an award for your acting. even though you didnât graduate from a acting school.â Pandora explained.
Pandora was never good at giving compliments, so Hannah rarely got praised by her. Thus, Hannah always thought Pandora didnât think she was good enough.
But today, she realized she was indeed the best daughter in Pandoraâs eyes.
Comelia was right. Kids should communicate more with their parents. They shouldnât think their parents donât love them and feel afraid to come home.
Thinking of this, Hannah remembered Cornelia was still in the study, âMom, Farley, I have a friend here at home. Letâs go meet her.â
âWhat friend?â Pandora asked.
Hannah ran to the study, opened the door, and found Cornelia engrossed in her drawing, not eavesdropping on their conversation. Hannah called her, âNellyâ
Cornelia looked up and saw Hannah looking happy, guessing that she must have sorted things out with her family Hannah pulled her along and introduced, âThis is Pandora and Farley, my mom, and my brother.â
Pandora glanced at Cornelia standing at the door and guessed, âYou must be Cornelia, right?â
âHello. How did you know Iâm Cornelia?â Cornelia asked.
*Hannah mentioned you. She rarely talks about her friends to us, but youâre one of them.â Pandora said.
âWhen did I mention Nelly?â Hannah asked.
Pandora replied, âYou may not remember, but I do.â
âReally?â Hannah was surprised.
Over the years, Hannah and Pandoraâs relationship wasnât close. Whenever they talked on the phone, it was just polite chitchat. She even forgot she had meritioned Cornelia She forgot, but Pandora remembered
Did this mean Pandora cared more about her than it seemed? Maybe.
Pandora naturally liked Hannahâs friend. âNelly, I brought some homemade cornbread and Mexican hot sauce. I donât know if you like them. I know youâre from Rosenberg. You guys have cornbread there too, but the way you make it might be different from ours.â
Hannah exclaimed in surprise, âMom, how did you know Nelly is from Rosenberg?â
âI know a lot of things Pandora smirked.
âThatâs great. I love it. Can I help you make them?â Corneliaâs eyes sparkled.
âNo need You guys go have fun. I can handle it.â Pandora said. With that, she turned and headed to the kitchen.
Farley looked at Cornelia and said, âYouâre very pretty.â
âYouâre handsome too.â Cornelia complimented
Farley blushed, âSo, do you have a boyfriend?â
âWhy do you ask?â Cornelia asked.
Farleyâs face turned even redder, âIf you donât, can I be your boyfriend when I grow up?â
Before he could finish speaking. Hannah grabbed his ear, âYou little devil, how old are you? Instead of focusing on your studies, youâre after my friend.â
Farley argued, âI said when I grow up.â
âGo read in the study Youâre not leaving without my permissionâ Hannah said.
âAw, I donât want to.â Farley sulked
Hannah raised an eyebrow, âEven if you donât want to, you have to
Farley looked like he was about to cry and quickly tattled, âMom, Hannahâs bullying me again!â
