Chapter 1176
Grandpa Augustine said, “Granny Rebecca might not have been a local from Rosenberg, but boy, could she whip up
some mean Rosenberg dishes. She was such a classy lady. I just wish I had more time with her, I lost her too soon.
Never got to stick around or taste her legendary barbecue pork chops.”
Cornelia said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to bring up Granny Rebecca…
Grandpa Augustine said, “Nah, you didn’t bring it up. Even though I know I won’t see Granny Rebecca again, I still
wanna know more about her. If you don’t mind the bother, tell me more about her.”
“Sure.” Cornelia nodded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtActually, whether Grandpa Augustine asked or not, Cornelia planned to spend more time with him, chat more, and
try to avoid future regrets as much as
possible.
No matter how robust Grandpa Augustine looked, he was old after all, and who knew how much longer he had.
Cornelia had lost too many loved ones. She didn’t spend enough quality time with them before, especially when
Granny Rebecca fell ill and came to Riverton, she didn’t properly accompany her.
It wasn’t until she lost Granny Rebecca that she felt deep regret. Now, Cornelia didn’t want the same regret to
happen to Grandpa Augustine.
Grandpa Augustine never thought that Cornelia would actually sit with him in the yard for half a day, quietly. He also
didn’t expect Cornelia to answer his questions about Granny Rebecca so patiently. This kid, she was growing on him.
He liked her so much that he wanted to give her everything in the world. They chatted for about two or three hours.
If it wasn’t for Marcus’ sudden call, Cornelia would have continued chatting.
Seeing Marcus’ call, Cornelia gave Grandpa Augustine a sweet smile, “Marc is calling, I’ll take it first.”
Grandpa Augustine chuckled, “Go ahead. I’ll wait for you in the restaurant, I won’t interrupt you guys.”
Cornelia said. “Thank you!”
Before Grandpa Augustine could leave, Cornelia excitedly answered the call, “You finally called me.”
Marcus’ voice came through, “Have you had lunch?”
Cornelia said, “I’m about to have lunch with Grandpa Augustine.”
Marcus said, “Then you go eat first, I’ll hang up.”
Cornelia hurriedly said, “Talking to you is more important than eating.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarcus paused for a few seconds, then said, “Cornelia, you should eat first”
Cornelia was speechless. What now? He had pissed her off again! Marcus was such a nitpicker.
He said, “Go eat. You have to eat properly every meal, you can’t starve yourself.”
“Jeremy!” Cornelia called him.
“Hmm?” Marcus asked.
“I finally got to talk to you, finally got to hear your voice, why do you always push me away?” Cornelia paused
slightly, then blushed and said, “I never realized before, that when you like someone, if you can’t see him, the
longing for him can be so painful.”
