    Cornelia asked, “Remember that will in my granny’s diary?”


    Marcus nodded, “Yeah, sure.”


    Cornelia went on, “Do you feel sorry for the mother who wrote that letter? If she were still alive, she


    would’ve raised her kid well,”


    Marcus cut her off, “You found out, didn’t you?”


    Cornelia was taken aback for a moment, then after a few seconds, she came back to her senses,


    “When did you find out?”


    Marcus replied, “When I saw that letter, I suspected it might have been written by your granny. So, I


    had same people look into it and they found some bits and pieces.”


    Cornelia asked urgently, “What did they find?”


    Marcus answered, “Turns out, your grandpa Walter never existed. He was a figment of your granny’s


    imagination. She came to Rosenberg with your father and told everyone her husband had passed


    away. And this unseen husband was Walter.”


    Cornelia bitterly said, “You saw through it, but I didn’t.”


    Marcusforted her gently, “You got too caught


    caring for your granny and forgot to think critically. Don’t beat yourself up.”


    Cornelia asked, “So how did you find out who my real grandpa was?”


    Marcus replied, “I haven’t found out who your real grandpa is yet. After your granny got to Rosenberg


    with your dad, she changed their names. You know, back in those days, identity verifications were


    prettyx. Your granny coughed up some dough, found a sponsor, and easily got a new identity. So,


    nobody in Rosenberg who knew her had any idea who she was before. Without a trace of her old


    identity, I couldn’t find your real grandpa.”


    Cornelia knew why Marcus couldn’t find out, but Alfredo could. Because Alfredo knew her granny, had


    seen her, and knew about her past. As long as he saw a photo of her granny, he would know who she


    was.


    But Marcus was different. He hadn’t seen what her granny looked like when she was young, so


    naturally, it would take more time, money, and effort to


    find out.


    Cornelia said, “You don’t have to dig anymore. None of this matters.”


    Marcus asked, “Did you find it?”


    This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Cornelia said, “Jeremy, can you not be so damn smart? I didn’t even say anything, yet you know


    everything.”


    Marcus hugged her and chuckled, “Did Alfredo help you find it? Was he worried about you having


    some wicked n for Grandpa Augustine?”


    “Yes, he helped me find it.” Cornelia didn’t want to hide anything from Marcus, but she had to keep this


    secret from Alfredo. She would keep the secret that Grandpa Augustine was her real grandpa forever


    and act as if nothing had happened


    But the next second, Marcus revealed the secret Cornelia wanted to hide, “The first time Grandpa


    Augustine saw you, he took a real shining to you. I guess that’s the power of blood ties.”


    Cornelia looked at him in surprise, “Who told you Grandpa Augustine was my real grandpa?”


    Marcus said, “I just figured it out.”


    Cornelia asked. “How did you figure it out?”


    Marcus continued, “If we look at it from different perspectives, we can see that what’s recorded in


    Grandpa Augustine’s and Granny Reba’s diaries. actually matches. Granny Reba’s diary said


    your father was a foundling, but the DNA test results between you and Granny Reba show you’re


    rted. There must be a contradiction somewhere. But if we follow this lead, everything bes


    clear.”


    Cornelia couldn’t help but admire, “I’m so lucky to be your wife, not your enemy. Otherwise, I might’ve


    died at your hands without even knowing”


    Marcusughed, ‘Does Alfredo not want you to tell Grandpa Augustine the truth?”


    Cornelia asked, “Jeremy, are you even human? Were you by my side when Alfredo talked to me?”


    Marcus replied, “It was the distraught look on your face when you came back that tipped me off.”
