Chapter 810

Marcus never made things crystal clear, so Patricia must have got the wrong end of the stick.

Cornelia couldn’t explain, she just awkwardly chuckled

As she strolled into the dining room, she spotted the two grannies. The moment she entered, their eyes zeroed in on her, particularly her belly

She figured they must have got the wrong idea from Briana’s video last night. She didn’t know what to say, “Why are you guys eyeballing me like that?”

Granny Luisa said, “Oh, nothing we’re just tickled pink to see you”

Granny Rebecca said, “Marcus is such a sweetheart, giving you the day off today”

Granny Luisa said, Tve always told you. Marcus may seem cold as ice, but he’s got a heart of gold.”

Granny Rebecca said, “Yes, yes, your great–grandson is the bee’s knees.”

Granny Luisa said. “How else could he have won over our wonderful Nelly if he wasn’t?”

Seeing the grannies about to launch into praises, Cornelia quickly changed the subject, “Granny, how are you feeling today? Any discomfort?”

Granny Rebecca said, ‘I used to feel groggy all the time, no matter how much I slept. But yesterday and today, I feel as fresh as a daisy Could it be my anger flushed out my health issues?”

Cornelia knew her granny was feeling better because she was no longer being poisoned, but she couldn’t spill the beans. She played along. “Well, you should pick fights more often, Granny Who knows, you might even get younger!”

Granny Rebecca laughed, “You’re such a sweet talker.”

Cornelia said, “What do you guys want to do today? I can keep you company”

Granny Luisa said, “As long as you’re with us, anything goes”

The two grannies didn’t have any special activities Granny Luisa liked to work out, and Granny Rebecca stayed home most of the time due to her health. Her major activity was strolling in her garden.

Granny Rebecca said, “I know you took the day off to be with us, but it’ll get boring Go check on Bri. I heard her comic con ran into some snags. She left early this morning and hasn’t been back since”

“Bri’s comic con hit a snag? Cornelia was on pins and needles, “Grannies, I’ll skip breakfast today. I need to go to the expo center”

The moment she finished, Patricia served up the breakfast she just cooked, “Cornelia, skipping breakfast is a one–way ticket to ulcers. You have to eat. Even if you don’t. think about the baby.”

Cornelia asked. “What baby?”

Patricia instantly regretted her words, “I was talking nonsense. Nonsense! Anyways, you should eat your breakfast, it’s the most important meal of the day”

There was an old school belief in Riverton that people shouldn’t spill the beans about a pregnancy in the first three months. Patricia and others believed Cornelia might be pregnant but they didn’t mention it because of this.

Granny Luisa said, “Bri should handle her own problems. Let her figure it out. Nelly, you need to take care of yourself. You can’t carry the world on your shoulders. Now sit down and eat your breakfast.”
