Chapter 87
âIs there really no chance of saving it?â Rebecca asked
âNope âMarcusâs answer was clear and firm
Thanks for being straight with me âGranny Rebecca thought for a moment, then said, âTalready knew you guys were getting a divorce. Donât tell Nelly now, just wait until I figure out how
to break it to herâ
Marcus said, âAlrightâ
After Marcus left, Granny Rebecca thought for a long time in bed. Once she had made up her mind, she called Cornelia.
è¯
Cornelia was woken up by the phone call and heard her grandmaâs cheerful voice, âNelly, Jay came to visit me. Heâs very handsome and considerate. He had me moved to a private room and arranged for two nurses to take turns looking after me. Heâs thought of everything. You can rest after work today, no need to come to the hospitalâ
âOkay, just remember to eat on time, grandma. Il come see you after work tomorrowâ Jeremy was still a reliable guy, Cornelia thought. She sent him a thank you message [Mr Artis, thanks for visiting my grandmal Sheâs really happy now!]
After sending the message, Cornelia received a new message.
Hannah [Cornelia, itâs Hannah. Iâm in Riverton now and I want to invite you to dinner. Are you free?]
Feeling hungry and considering Hannah to be a good person, Cornelia agreed: [Where should we meet? Iâll be right there.]
Hannah immediately replied with an address and said: [Iâll wait for you here]
Marcus saw the message his wife had sent and sneered, thinking. âWhat a fool!â
Steven handed him a cigarette. âMarc, which girl has p*** you off?â
Marcus put his phone down, âWhatâs for dinner?â
Steven said. âIll ask my wife later. Whatever she wants to eat.â
Marcus smiled faintly. âYou really let your wife call the shots, huh?â
Steven said, 7 just want my wife to keep me in check. Unlike you, your marriage is like youâre not married at all. You want your wife to control you, but she doesnât.â
Hannah arrived at Riverton today to promote her new drama. The event had just ended, and she approached Steven and planted a kiss on his cheek. âHoney, I have plans to have dinner with a friend tonight, so I wonât accompany you. You and Marcus can enjoy some alone time together.â
Hearing this, Hannah said, âYou guys go ahead. Iâm having dinner with someone else.â
Steven gritted his teeth, âHannah, I put down such important work to accompany you to Riverton for the promotion of the new drama, and you want to ditch me to have dinner with someone else?â
Hannah said, 7 didnât ask you to come, you insisted on following me.â
Steven said, âHannah, if you leave me, Iâll be upset!â
Hannah glanced at him and walked away. Steven immediately followed her, âHoney, Iâm sorry, can you take me with you?â
Hannah said, âNo, I made plans with Cornelia. She definitely doesnât want to see you, so you canât come with me.â
Steven said, âCornelia? Marcâs assistant?â
Hannah said, âYes
Steven said, âWhen did you guys become so close?â
âItâs hard to explain the friendship between girls to you guys,â Hannah shook off his hand. âDonât follow me, or Iâll be upset.â
Steven helplessly watched his wife sneak away and turned to Marcus, âMarcus, have you ever thought about going to check it out?â
Marcus calmly smoked, âI donât have a wife, what am I going for?â
Steven replied, âThen let your assistant become your wifeâ
