Chapter 1552


    Chapter 1552


    In her heart, Cornelia understood the worries that gued Jeremy, for he was a child whom his parents


    had abandoned. The shadows of his childhood clung to him like an unwee ghost, and it seemed a


    lifetime was needed to heal those deep wounds. Even though Jeremy had grown to be a strong man,


    those childhood shadows still haunted him, nagging at his conscience.


    Cornelia snuggled into his arms, rubbing her head against his chest. “Honey, do you have any idea


    how I survived those months we were apart?”


    Jeremy, “I’m sorry…”


    Cornelia raised her hand, gently pressing his lips. “No apologies!”


    Jeremy, “But…”


    Cornelia cut him off, “Just listen. Yes, you’re right, I can earn my own money. If I hadn’t met you, I could


    have lived a good life on my own. However, I did meet you, and you’ve carved a permanent ce in my


    heart. Without you, it would be like gouging a hole in my very heart. Do you understand what I’m


    saying?”


    Jeremy, “Cornelia…”e2


    Cornelia, “I can’t live without you. Our little Hope can’t live without his dad. We’re a family, and we’re


    notplete without each other. Do you understand?” Jeremy smiled gently. “Sometimes I’m afraid


    that all of this is just a dream, that when I wake up, I’ll still be locked in a cramped, dark room, and you


    and Hope will be gone.”


    Cornelia tightly held his hand, pressing it against her face. “Feel me, I’m not a figment of your


    imagination. I’m right here, alive and well.”


    Jeremy, “Yes. I feel you.”

    Cornelia, “I love you! I love you so much.”


    The love he never received in the past, she would give him double now. She wanted him to know, she


    loved him very much.


    Knock, knock, knock…


    Patricia came knocking. “Marc, Nelly, that woman called again. She said if you don’t meet her…”. The


    words of Courtney were so vicious that Patricia was infuriated. She couldn’t bear to tell Cornelia and


    Jeremy.


    Cornelia looked at Jeremy. “Do you want to meet her?”


    Jeremy, “What about you?”


    Cornelia smiled. “She’s connected to me because of you. Whether we meet her or not is up to you.


    Honey, I know you don’t want to see her, but if we don’t, she’ll keep bothering you. We might as well


    meet her, clear things up, and put an end to this.”


    Jeremy had the same thought. “Patricia, tell Ben to arrange the meeting.”


    Patricia, “Yes.”


    Cornelia, “Patricia, is Hope awake?”


    Upon mentioning Hope, Patricia’s face instantly brightened. “Yes, he is. Granny Luisa is ying with


    him. Hope is so clever, he can already call her ‘granny.” Patricia was an elder, so naturally, the child


    would call her ‘granny.’ As for the child’s biological grandmother, she didn’t deserve to be called


    ‘granny.’ This morning, Courtney called early to threaten Marc to meet her. She even cursed that his


    child would not grow up if he didn’t visit her.


    Patricia was so angry she could barely breathe. She couldn’t bear to tell Jeremy, Cornelia, and Granny.


    If they knew, they would be even angrier.


    Cornelia, “Okay, I’ll get up and freshen up, then join him for breakfast.”


    Patricia, “We already fed him. We’ll take good care of him. You guys go do your work.”

    Jeremy, “I have to go to the office today, and I’ll take him with me.”


    Patricia, who adored the child, said, “Marc, why don’t you leave Hope at home? Granny Luisa and I can


    watch him. He’s such a well-behaved child, and he doesn’t cry much.”
