Chapter 1476
Cornelia responded, “Bye.”
She watched Hannah drive away, not turning around until the car had disappeared from her sight. Then she
headed towards the building behind her. She took the elevator straight up to the 28th floor, to a lounge. There was
coffee, cake, and such in the lounge, but no sign anyone had touched them.
Steven stood by the front window, watching Hannah leave out the corner of his eye.
Hope was asleep in her stroller, with Jeremy sitting beside her, not wanting to leave his side. Since Cornelia needed
to work, paint, and have a quiet space, Jeremy usually took care of the baby.
Breaking this peaceful scene was Rosie, crying at the door. Lucas held her, his face full of sympathy, saying, “If you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmiss her, we can go see her anytime. Rosie, can you stop crying?”
The more Lucas spoke, the louder Rosie cried, “What do you men know?! I’m upset for Hannah. What the hell did
Steven do to her? Hannah doesn’t want to be around him anymore, and she’s determined to go back to her
hometown.”
Lucas looked at Steven, who was peering out the window with binoculars. “I don’t know what he did, but I know he
must regret it now. His wife is leaving Harbor City to go back home, and he didn’t even have the guts to see her off.
Poor guy.”
Rosie corrected him. “You mean his ex-wife.”
Lucas, “Right, ex-wife.”
Rosie was about to say something else when she saw Cornelia returning. She let go of Lucas and walked over to
Cornelia. “Nelly, what did Hannah say to you?”
“Not much.” Cornelia reached up and gently touched Rosie’s face. “You didn’t want to see Hannah off, right? Afraid
you might burst into tears?”
Rosie was taken aback, almost shedding tears again. “Nelly, you know it. Among us four, you, Skyler Blue, Hannah,
and me, I’ve known Hannah the longest. When Lucas used to bully me, and when I had no one to talk to, I always
went to Hannah. She was always patient with me. I thought she had no troubles, but I learned recently that during
those times, she was having a hard time too.”
Mentioning Skyler’s name still made Cornelia feel a pang of pain. She was thankful that at least Hannah was still
alive. As long as you were alive, there was always hope.
She said, “Rosie after I get settled in Riverton, let’s go see Hannah.”
Rosie, “Sure. I have plenty of time. Whenever you’re free, we can stay with her for a while.”
Cornelia, “I have a flexible schedule, so I can go anywhere. But I have to take the baby with me to feed him.”

Rosie, “Bring Hope along too. I can help take care of him.”
Cornelia, “OK, after I check out the situation in Riverton, I’ll get back to you.”
Just as they mentioned Hope, Jeremy brought him over. “Cornelia, Hope wants his mommy.”
Cornelia immediately turned to look at Hope in Jeremy’s arms. The little one saw her and started happily waving his
little hands.
Cornelia held one of his hands and gave them a gentle kiss. “Son, play with Daddy. Mommy needs to chat with
Rosie.”
Rosie walked over to them, and her eyes lit up when she saw the adorable Hope. “Hope is so cute. Cornelia, can I
hold him?”
