    Chapter 770


    Comelia said again, “Sure, I’m a bit scared, but I know I’ve got you, Zack, Abby, Bri and the two


    grannies by my side. I know there’s a bunch of people who care about me and who I care about. I’m


    not scared anymore. Whatever tricks he’s got up his sleeve, he can bring it on. I won’t say I’m scared


    anymore.”


    Marcus, who had been in a foul mood all night, couldn’t help butugh at her words, “Not scared now?”


    Comelia put her hands on her hips and said confidently, “Well, I mean, I’m still kinda scared, but we


    can’t lose in terms of spirit. Sometimes, just having strong confidence is already half the battle.”


    Take Marcus for example, he had a really strong presence. Whenever anyone negotiated or did


    anything with him, just a slight raise of his eyebrows can freak them out. How can they get a good


    result if they’ve already lost their confidence?


    Marcus said, “Cornelia…”


    Comelia said, “Hmm?”


    He said, “Thank you.”


    For not ming him. For standing by his side!


    Comelia said, “I should be thanking you too!”


    Marcus asked, “What for?”


    Cornelia said, “When my granny was seriously ill, I moved her from Rosenberg to Riverton. If you


    hadn’t arranged for people to take care of everything for my granny. I wouldn’t have been able to focus


    on my work. You arranged for people to take such good care of my granny that I had nothing to worry


    about at work.”


    Marcus said, “That’s something I should do as your husband.”


    “Anyway, I just want to say thank you. Once she gets better, I’ll treat you to dinner, how does that


    sound?” To Comelia, helping someone else was never an obligation. If someone helped you, it was


    their kindness. If they didn’t, that was also perfectly fine.


    Marcus had no obligation to help her take care of her granny, but as soon as her granny arrived in


    Riverton, he mobilized manpower and resources to arrange care for her granny and made her life


    comfortable. He said that helping her was the right thing to do, but she also. knew to be grateful.


    Just as Marcus was about to say something, there was a knock on the lounge door, and the doctor’s


    voice came from outside, “President Hartley, the patient has been resuscitated, and she is temporarily


    out of danger.”


    This good news relieved everyone present, especially Cornelia. She had been able to hold back her


    tears, pretending nothing had happened. When she heard that her granny was okay, her nerves


    rxed and her tears flowed uncontrobly.


    Cornelia wanted to go see her granny, but she stumbled, unable to stand steady, luckily Marcus was at


    her side and caught her in time.


    Her eyes were red from excitement, and she repeatedly bowed to the doctors, saying, “Thank you, all


    of you! Thanks for saving my granny!”


    The doctor said, “Mrs. Hartley, no need for formalities, it’s our duty. But you can’t see Granny Reba


    yet, she needs to be observed in the ICU overnight. Tonight is critical, if she can get through tonight


    safely, she’ll truly be okay.”


    Due to being overly excited and nervous, Cornelia didn’t even notice the doctor had addressed her as
