Chapter 155
In the ward, Cornelia was chatting on Whatsapp, but was interrupted by a call from grandma.
She picked up right away, âGrandma, happy holidays!â
Granny Rebecca happily replied. âHappy holidays!â
Just by hearing her grandmaâs voice, Cornelia could tell she was in a good mood today. âGrandma, did something good happen today?â
Granny Rebecca said, âNothing much, just wanted to call and tell you that no matter what decision you make, I will support you.â
Cornelia asked, âGrandma, why are you suddenly saying this?â
1 called you with a video this morning, and I saw everything if you really want to be with Jeremy, Grandma wonât object. You donât have to hide it from me Anyway, no matter what decision you make, Grandma will support you.â Since the young people were shy and embarrassed to say it, she, as an elder, would make it clear
She just wanted to tell Cornelia that no matter whether she decided to divorce or continue, she should go for it without any hesitation
Cornelia thought âSo, Jeremy really did come over and even answered my grandmaâs video call â
After ending the call with her grandma, Cornelia immediately opened Whatsapp and indeed found a video call record with her grandma, which Jeremy had picked up for her
Cornelia was angry and immediately sent Jeremy a questioning message, Jeremy, why are you messing with my phone?â
Marcus had just lit a cigarette and saw her message. Before he could think of a reply, she sent several more messages in a row.
âWhy are you always silent when I ask you something?â
Jeremy, answer me!â
âDo you think silence can solve the problem?â
Marcus thought for a moment and replied to her, I hadnât picked up, your grandma might have worried.â
Cornelia said, âDo you know that my grandma now misunderstands that weâve made up?â
Of course, Marcus knew, and he had deliberately shown that scene to her grandma, but he couldnât say that
He replied. âThat should be good news for me since I donât want to get divorced.â
Cornelia said, âYouâre so annoying!â
Marcus didnât respond
Annoyed, Cornelia put away her phone and took big sips of soup.
After finishing a bowl of soup and some greens, she hurried to the next ward to see Skyler.

After a day of rest, Skyler still didnât look very energetic, but she perked up a bit when she saw Cornelia. âCornelia, where did you go today? I was scared youâd find me a burden and stop caring for meâ
No one had told her about Cornelia passing out, so as not to worry her
âHow could I not care for you? I just got busy with some other stuff.â Cornelia rubbed her head âDonât think too much about anything right now, just focus on getting better
Tm fine now. Can we leave the Capital now?â Skyler grabbed Corneliaâs hand tightly.
She couldnât wait to escape from Zavier and didnât want to stay in this city for a moment longer.
And the only person who could help her escape the Capital was Corneliaâs boss Marcus
Therefore, Cornelia was her only hope at this moment, her lifeâsaving straw.âSkyler, wait, let me ask the doctor if your body can handle a long journey first âCornelia wanted to take Skyler away from this dangerous place immediately but couldnât risk harming her health.
âSkylerâs health is fine, she can leave nowâ Dr. Dawson walked in, âPresident Hartley has already arranged for it. Weâll all be heading back to Riverton tonight.â
