    Cornelia responded, “Bye.”


    She watched Hannah drive away, not turning around until the car had disappeared from her sight. Then


    she headed towards the building behind her. She took the elevator straight up to the 28th floor, to a


    lounge. There was coffee, cake, and such in the lounge, but no sign anyone had touched them.


    Steven stood by the front window, watching Hannah leave out the corner of his eye.


    Hope was asleep in her stroller, with Jeremy sitting beside her, not wanting to leave his side. Since


    Cornelia needed to work, paint, and have a quiet space, Jeremy usually took care of the baby.


    Breaking this peaceful scene was Rosie, crying at the door. Lucas held her, his face full of sympathy,


    saying, “If you miss her, we can go see her anytime. Rosie, can you stop crying?”


    The more Lucas spoke, the louder Rosie cried, “What do you men know?! I’m upset for Hannah. What


    the hell did Steven do to her? Hannah doesn’t want to be around him anymore, and she’s determined


    to go back to her hometown.”


    Lucas looked at Steven, who was peering out the window with binocrs. “I don’t know what he did,


    but I know he must regret it now. His wife is leaving Harbor City to go back home, and he didn’t even


    have the guts to see her off. Poor guy.”


    Rosie corrected him. “You mean his ex-wife.”


    Lucas, “Right, ex-wife.”

    Rosie was about to say something else when she saw Cornelia returning. She let go of Lucas and


    walked over to Cornelia. “Nelly, what did Hannah say to you?”


    “Not much.” Cornelia reached up and gently touched Rosie’s face. “You didn’t want to see Hannah off,


    right? Afraid you might burst into tears?”


    Rosie was taken aback, almost shedding tears again. “Nelly, you know it. Among us four, you, Skyler


    Blue, Hannah, and me, I’ve known Hannah the longest. When Lucas used to bully me, and when I had


    no one to talk to, I always went to Hannah. She was always patient with me. I thought she had no


    troubles, but I learned recently that during those times, she was having a hard time too.”


    Mentioning Skyler’s name still made Cornelia feel a pang of pain. She was thankful that at least


    Hannah was still alive. As long as you were alive, there was always hope.


    She said, “Rosie after I get settled in Riverton, let’s go see Hannah.”


    Rosie, “Sure. I have plenty of time. Whenever you’re free, we can stay with her for a while.”


    Cornelia, “I have a flexible schedule, so I can go anywhere. But I have to take the baby with me to feed


    him.”


    Rosie, “Bring Hope along too. I can help take care of him.”


    Cornelia, “OK, after I check out the situation in Riverton, I’ll get back to you.”


    Just as they mentioned Hope, Jeremy brought him over. “Cornelia, Hope wants his mommy.”


    Cornelia immediately turned to look at Hope in Jeremy’s arms. The little one saw her and started


    happily waving his little hands.


    Cornelia held one of his hands and gave them a gentle kiss. “Son, y with Daddy. Mommy needs to


    chat with Rosie.”


    Rosie walked over to them, and her eyes lit up when she saw the adorable Hope. “Hope is so cute.


    Cornelia, can I hold him?”
