Chapter 1144

It was late at night now, a time when most people were hitting the hay Cornelia was surprised that her comic got comments so quickly after she posted

“Nelly, you finally updated. Hurry up, I wanna know if the two main characters have recognized each other yet.”

“Nelly, don’t slack off, I got your back!”

“Nelly, keep it up, don’t keep us hanging.”

There were tons of comments, and in no time, there were dozens of them.

Cornelia first replied to one [You guys really want the two main characters to recognize each other that bad?]

After Cornelia replied, her fans got all excited and started commenting like crazy under her reply.

“Nelly, who never responds to reader comments, actually replied to me.”

“Spill the beans, when will the two main characters recognize each other?”

“I actually don’t want that so soon. The guy doesn’t even realize his wife is right beside him and thinks she’s cheating and wants a divorce.”

Soon, there were a ton of comments, and readers who were for and against the characters recognizing each other started a debate.

Seeing everyone passionately discussing her creation, Cornelia’s gloomy mood gradually lifted and fired up her creative juices. So, she spent another hour or so drawing another episode and didn’t upload it until after 2 a.m. This time, Cornelia hit the sack straight away and slept like a log until dawn.

When she woke up, it was still early Cornelia immediately grabbed her phone and saw a few unread messages. Cornelia quickly opened them, and sure enough, they were from Marcus.

The first one: [Cornelia, I’ve arrived.]

The second one: [I miss you too.]

The third one: [My workload has been heavy these past few days, and there’s a time difference between here and home. I might not have time to call you.]

It was 7 a.m. back home, which meant it was late at night in Paris. Marcus had been on a flight all night and was probably resting.

Worried about waking him up, Cornelia first sent a message: [Are you asleep? Can I call you now?]

She really wanted to call Marcus, really wanted to hear his voice. But after sending the message, there was no response. Marcus didn’t reply.

Cornelia guessed he was probably resting and that he would message her when he woke up. She put down her phone and got up to wash. After washing up, she went downstairs and saw Grandpa Augustine was already up, even earlier than her.

He was pacing back and forth near the staircase on the first floor. When he saw Cornelia coming down, he quickly walked over happily, “Nelly, why are you up so early? Is it because you’re not used to the bed, or is there another reason?”

Cornelia replied, “I’m used to getting up at this time, even on holidays.”

Grandpa Augustine said, “If it’s not comfy, tell me.”

Cornelia replied, “Grandpa Augustine, I slept well last night.”

Hearing Cornelia still calling him Grandpa Augustine instead of grandpa, Grandpa Augustine felt a bit disappointed. But he didn’t want to force it, “Alright, let’s have breakfast. I had the kitchen prepare a special Rosenberg breakfast for you, I hope you’ll like it.”

Cornelia said, “Grandpa Augustine, I’m not picky”

Grandpa Augustine said, “That’s good, a balanced diet is important for good health.”

Grandpa Augustine felt a bit awkward with his words. He was so eager to take care of his granddaughter that he was somewhat at a loss.
