Chapter 395
Skyler wiped away her tears and looked up at Cornelia, surprised to find Comeliaâs eyes red too, âComelia, whatâs up with you?â
Iâm alright.â Comelia reached out her hand, gently pinching Skylerâs face, âWhy donât I feel pain? Am I dreaming?â
Skyler was amused by her, reaching out to pinch Corneliaâs face, âDork, does it hurt now?â
Comelia, âIt hurts, so Iâm not dreaming today, I really met you.â
Ever since Skyler left, Comelia had met Skyler more than once in her dreams. Especially in these past few days, since she learned that Skyler had been under the watch of Zavier, she had been dreaming about Skyler a lot.
She dreamed of Skyler being taken back to the Capital by Zavier, covered in blood, Zavier breaking Skylerâs leg and asking her if she would still run away.
This morning, Comelia was awakened by this nightmare.
âOf course, itâs really melâ Skyler grabbed Comelia, âItâs getting late, letâs get something to eat first, and tomorrow Iâll take you to see the farm where I work.â
Cornelia nodded, âAlright.â
Skyler led Cornelia towards a two-story wooden cabin ahead, âThat little cabin is my home now. Itâs not big, but itâs comfy
âAs long as you feel comfy.â Cornelia understood what Skyler meant by comfy.
Skyler lived in the luxurious mansion of the Rivera family in the Capital, with its fancy decorations and ser vants attending to her, she was leading a wealthy life that others envied. But only Skyler herself knew that such a life was like a canary trapped in a cage, with no freedom to speak of.
Skyler tried her best to escape, just to pursue the freedom of her heart.
The light in the cabin wasnât very bright, but it was enough for Cornelia to see Skylerâs face clearly. After more than a month, Skyler looked much better in complexion and spirit.
Skyler introduced, âThe cabin is divided into two floors, the ground floor is for living and working, and the upstairs is the bedroom and study. Let me show you around.â
Cornelia followed Skyler around the cabin. Although it wasnât very big, it was very clean and warm, much more comfortable than her -own home in the Capital.
After touring the cabin, Skyler poured Cornelia a cup of tea, âCornelia, Iâve prepared a barbecue for you tonight, we can eat and chat.â Comelia said, âSkyler, you donât have to fuss, 1 just came to see you. It doesnât matter what we eat.â
Skyler chuckled, âAlright, actually I just wanted some BBQ. Thereâs no one to cat with me at the farm, now that I have someone to share it with, how could I miss this opportunity?â
âThen let me help you prepare.â Cornelia was about to stand up, but Skyler pushed her back into her seat, âIâve already prepared everything. Youâve come all this way to see me, how could I ask you to lift a finger?â
Skyler set up the BBQ first, then lit the charcoal, and brought out two plates of steak from the kitchen, âThis beef is from our own farm, Iâm not bragging, but itâs definitely yummier than supermarket steak.â
Looking at the top-notch steak, Cornelia rubbed her hands in excitement, âLooks like Iâm in for a feast tonight. But this delicious beef, Iâm afraid two pieces might not be enough for me.â
Skyler, laughing, brought out two more plates of lamb chops from the kitchen, âBesides beef, this lamb is also from our own farmâ
