Chapter 872


    Chapter 872


    Cornelia grew up parentless and was often bullied by other kids in elementary school, a fact that both


    Abigail and Zack were well aware of


    Back then, little Cornelia couldn’t defeat those bullies. When others bullied her, she would do just as


    she did now, telling them that she had her grandmother, and her grandmother would protect her.


    But those bully kids wouldn’t back off just because of her words. Instead, they’d bully her even more


    whenever she threatened to tell her Grandma, and they wouldn’t even let her go home to snitch.


    Luckily, her Grandma spotted something was off and found out about her troubles in school. She talked


    to the school teachers, and that put an end to the bullying


    In Cornelia’s eyes, even though her Grandma was now old and didn’t do things as well as Cornelia


    herself, she was still her hero. Her Granny Reba was the superhero who protected her. She was the


    irreceable superhero in her heart!

    They all knew how much Granny Reba meant to Cornelia. Everyone knew she couldn’t bear to face


    the fact that Granny Reba was gone, and they all wished she could ept it sooner and start a new


    life.


    “Zack, Abby,e…” Cornelia walked towards Zack and Abigail, taking each of their hands, “Zack,


    Abby, my Granny said your parents are workingte today and won’t be home untilte. So, you guys


    areing to my ce after school. We’re going to have dinner and do our homework together”


    Both Abigail and Zack turned to look at Marcus.


    Marcus made the decision straight away, “Just go along with it for now. She hasn’t eaten in hours, just


    coax her into having a meal.


    Abigail and Zack nodded and said to Cornelia, “Let’s have dinner first then, we’ll do homework


    afterwards.”


    “Alright, let’s eat first.” Cornelia led them towards the dining room, “My Granny must’ve made


    something delicious for us. Make sure you two eat a lot.”


    Abigail hugged Cornelia, “Nelly…”


    Cornelia looked at her, “Abby, what’s wrong? Don’t you always love the food my Granny makes? You


    don’t look too happy today.”


    Abigail replied, “I’m not unhappy, I’m just…


    Cornelia asked, “What? Having trouble with today’s homework? Don’t worry, if there’s anything you


    don’t understand, you can ask my Granny. She loves kids who study hard.”


    Abigail nodded vigorously, “Alright.”


    Cornelia turned to Zack, “Zack, what’s up with you? You’re usually the chatterbox, why so quiet today?”


    Being immersed in past memories can be blissful, but it can also have unexpected consequences.


    Zack didn’t want to see Comelia continue like this. He wanted to pull her back to reality, “Nelly,e


    with me.”


    Without thinking twice, he grabbed Cornelia and headed towards the room where Granny Reba’s


    bodyid. He was strong, and Comelia was pulled along by the arm to Granny Reba’s side.


    He pointed at Granny Reba’s body and said, “Cornelia, look closely, your Granny’s gone. She can’t


    cook for us anymore. She can’t tutor us on our homework anymore…”
