Chapter 855: Chapter 855

Zack said. “This Christmas, my mom mentioned that some of my classmates already have five or six kids while I’m still single. I think she was referring to Patty. Nelly, you and Abby can’t be like this, we should have some dignity, we can’t just be baby-making machines for others.”

Cornelia responded, “I understand that, but there are certain times in life that we just can’t do what we want to do.”

Zack asked. “So, is the issue between you and Marcus about having a child? Did he force you…”

Cornelia replied, “No, he didn’t force me to have a child. He’s been good to me, it’s me who wanted a child…”

Zack asked, “Why? Didn’t you say before that you wanted to wait until your job was stable before having a child? Why the sudden change of mind?”

Cornelia replied, “Because my grandmother wants to see my child…”

Zack said. “So, in fact, Marcus is your tool for having a baby! Nelly, I didn’t expect you to be the selfish one.”

Cornelia asked, “Am I really selfish?”

Zack asked. “Do you like him?”

Comelia replied, “Abby just asked me this question. You don’t need to ask again.”

Zack said. “You don’t like him!”

Cornelia replied, “He’s my husband. I will surely like him.”

Zack said, “He’s your husband, and you think the only man you can like is him. That’s a sense of duty, not true liking.”

Cornelia asked, “You’ve never even been in love, how could you possibly understand?”

Zack replied, “An outsider sees the most of the game.”

Comelia didn’t reply.

Did she like Marcus? Did she really like him?

Comelia kept asking herself this question in her heart. But she couldn’t give herself a definite answer.

At six in the evening. Abigail returned to Riverton. Cornelia and Zack went to pick her up and then they went for a barbecue. After the barbecue, they went to check out their new home.

The weather in Riverton was hot, but because their new house was built with eco-friendly materials, there was no pungent smell inside.

Comelia said, ‘Let’s move as soon as possible.”

Zack replied, “Didn’t we agree to wait until summer is over? It’s very hot now, which is when furniture releases formaldehyde. For health reasons, we should move later.”

Comelia said, ‘Im just a bit worried…”

Zack and Abigail knew what Cornelia was worrying about. They both hugged her.

Abigail said, “Nelly, didn’t you say that your grandma’s health has improved recently? As long as she rests well, she will be fine. She will be able to move to the new house with you, stay with you all the time, and even see you have your own child.”

Comelia replied, “Yes, she will.”

Comelia didn’t understand why, but lately, she kept thinking about random things whenever she had free time. She was afraid of Granny Rebecca suddenly leaving her.

After they finished checking the house, they drove their new car slowly home. She didn’t expect to see a luxury car parked by the road not far from the parking lot entrance Beside the car stood a tall, elegant man smoking non-stop.

Comelia saw Marcus, but pretended not to see him.
