Chapter 759

After leaving the Hartley family’s courtyard, Sabrina sat in the car, looking worriedly at Roman in the driver’s seat, “Son, was our behavior today not worth it?”

Roman chuckled coldly, “Well, it’s too early to say whether we’ve gained or lost. Maybe the old lady of the Hartley family is just sticking to her own opinion She may not believe us, but there must be some doubts in her heart. As long as we’ve planted seeds of doubt in her mind, who knows what will happen in the long run?”

Sabrina was still worried, “Granny from the Hartley family has always been good to us. I’ve known her for over twenty years. Every time I visit her, she’s always friendly. The thing I want, no matter how expensive it is, as long as I ask her for it, she will give it to me. But this time she asked us to leave. I’m afraid she won’t give money to us anymore.”

Roman retorted discontentedly, “She only gives us twenty or thirty thousand a month. That’s not nearly enough for us. If she doesn’t give us money in the future, someone else will, don’t worry.”

Sabrina said, “It is indeed a bit less, sometimes I want to buy a decent bag but don’t have money. But you know, having this twenty or thirty thousand is better than nothing. Apart from Granny Luisa, who would be willing to give us tens of thousands every month?”

For many families, twenty or thirty thousand was more than they can earn in a year. Yet, Granny Luisa gave the Padillas two to three thousand every month, and they still found it insufficient.

“Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, you won’t be short of money,” Roman didn’t specify who would give them money. It was not the right time to tell her.

Sabrina said, “You had me meet Granny Luisa today and you slandered Cornelia in front of her. It doesnt benefit the Padilla family at all, why did you do that?”

Roman asked, “Do you want to hear the truth?”

Sabrina replied, “Of course! What, you think I want you to spin tales?”

Roman smiled, his smile sinister and twisted. “Because I regret it! I regret breaking up with her! If I hadn’t listened to those rumors and broken up with her, she would be my woman now, not Marcus“.”

Sabrina said, “It’s just a woman. You can find any type of woman with your current status. It’s not worth being so obsessed over a woman from the past.”

Roman replied, “A woman from the past? The one I can’t get is the one I can’t forget. Because she’s the woman I never truly had, I couldn’t help but miss her all these years.

“Ironically, the first job I got when I returned to Riverton brought me face to face with her. I tried to invite her to dinner, but she turned me down. Today, I visited her home and found her with Marcus. She told me Marcus is her husband. I understand that unless Marcus lets her go, I’ll never have another chance with her. So, I’d rather destroy her than let her fall into another man’s hands.”

Sabrina said, “She now has the powerful backing of the Hartley Group and that fearsome Marcus. For the sake of our family and your future, you’d better not get involved with that woman anymore.”

Roman sneered, “You think I’m the only one watching her? There are already many people paying attention to her. Every move she makes is being watched.

“Marcus has made many enemies, and there are countless people who wish him dead. Maybe one day, his life will be taken away by someone else, and then he’ll no longer have the right to fight me for Cornelia.”

Sabrina asked, “Is the one who wants to deal with him Brennen?”

Roman replied, “Since ancient times, the battle between father and son has always been the most captivating show. I wonder who will have the upper hand in this play, the father or the son.”

Sabrina said, “Marcus sent Brennen to prison before he was even eighteen. If Brennen couldn’t even handle a not–yet–eighteen–year–old Marcus, what can he do to the now so powerful Marcus? Does he think he can win just based on his accumulation of strength during these two years after being released from prison?”

Roman replied, “Let’s wait and see.”

When Cornelia and Marcus arrived at the hospital, Granny Rebecca was still being rescued.

Granny Luisa was wiping away her tears as she said to Cornelia, “Nelly, I’m sorry! I didn’t take good care of your grandma. She got scared and couldn’t catch her breath. She almost passed away.”
