Chapter 780

Granny Luisa nodded, “Yup!”

Comelia didn’t respond

She had a hearty meal under the watchful eyes of the three elders, she was so stuffed that she was even struggling to walk

After the meal, Granny felt fine and wanted to go home to rest. Cornelia consulted with the doctor, who told her that Marcus had previously informed him to abide by Granny Rebecca’s wishes. If Granny Rebecca wanted to rest at home, then they would go home and the doctor would accompany them.

Despite feeling a tad embarrassed about inconveniencing others, Cornelia prioritized her grandmother’s comfort. Nothing was more important than Granny Rebecca’s well–being

Once they arrived back at the Hartley’s old mansion, Granny Rebecca felt a bit tired and dozed off shortly after lying down on her bed.

With nothing else to do after her granny fell asleep, Cornelia took out her phone and messaged Marcus: [What are you up to?]

Quite a while passed without a reply from Marcus.

After giving it some thought, Cornelia sent another message: [Granny and I are back at the Hartley Mansion. When are you coming home?]

A few seconds after she sent the message, Marcus finally replied: [Meet me outside]

Cornelia asked: [Are you back?]

Marcus replied. [Yep.]

Cornelia quickly got up and dashed outside, phone in hand.

Patricia was in the process of handing her some fruit and nearly got knocked over, “Nelly, where are you rushing off to? I just cut some fruit, have some.”

‘Patricia, I’m good. You and granny have it. Cornelia replied without turning back and ran off.

Patricia watched her disappear, “What’s the hurry?”

“She’s obviously off to see Marc Granny Luisa said, sunning herself by the French windows and noticing Marcus’s car parked outside, “Marc must be taking Nelly out on a date.”

Patricia added, “Looking at the way Nelly bolted, she’s like a gust of wind. Definitely off to see her beau”

Granny Luisa chuckled, “True that. Back in my day, I used to run out to greet my husband when he returned from a business trip.”

Patricia mused, “So, Nelly must have feelings for Marc.”

Granny Luisa replied, “Of course, who wouldn’t? Marc is such a catch, not many girls could resist him.”

Patricia moved closer to Granny Luisa and handed her a fork, “Granny Luisa, have some fruit first.

Granny Luisa sighed, “Nelly’s in the car and Marc’s driving off. I wonder where they are heading to. Do you think we might hear some good news soon?”

Patricia pondered, “Maybe they are heading to the Celestial Chateau? If so, should I go there to take care of them?”

Granny Luisa dismissed the idea, “Marc promised me he’ll stay with Nelly at the mansion for at least half a month, he wouldn’t dare take her away now.” Patricia agreed. “So, they must be going on a date somewhere else. After all, it’s not convenient to do anything at home with so many people around.”

Granny Luisa accepted this explanation.

Meanwhile, Cornelia was sprinting out of the house towards the yard. Even from a distance, she could already see Marcus.
