Chapter 756
Sabrina said, “This is the Hartley family’s own business. Even if Marc’s trying to make things easier for his wife,
what’s the big deal? Who’s gonna have the guts to question that?”
Roman gave Sabrina a gentle nudge and started, “Granny Luisa, there’s something about Cornelia that I’m not sure
if I should tell you.”
Granny Luisa asked, “What is it?”
Roman took out his phone, scrolled to a photo, and handed it to Granny Luisa. “This happened this afternoon and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtit’s blowing up online. Pretty sure everyone in the country knows by now.”
When Granny Luisa recognized the girl in the photo was Cornelia, she was shaking with anger, “Who dared to
photoshop these pictures? Who dared to smear Nelly’s name? When I find out who’s behind this, they’re gonna
pay.”
Roman asked, “Granny Luisa, is there any chance the photo isn’t photoshopped, but real?”
Granny Luisa snapped, “What are you implying? You think you know Cornelia better than me? Nelly’s character is
impeccable. I’ll have Marc find out who made these photos. I’ll find the culprit behind this and make them pay.”
Roman paused, acting like he was in a tough spot, “Granny Luisa, there are some things I didn’t want to bring up,
but now that I know, I think I should let you in on it. This girl, Cornelia, she used to be my girlfriend.”
Sabrina exclaimed, “What did you just say? You can’t just toss around words like that.”
Granny Luisa coldly glared at Roman, “Spill it. What’s the deal?”
Roman said, “You probably know I went to University of Riverton. Cornelia also graduated from there. During my
junior year, she was in her sophomore year. That year, I pursued her, and she became my girlfriend.
“I never would have thought that when she went home for summer, she seduced a married man, and got caught
by his wife. The whole thing blew up, even reaching our university. She was almost expelled. When I found out, I
broke things off. I couldn’t be with a girl with such reckless behavior.”
Smack-
A slipper flew from the distance and hit Roman right on the forehead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGranny Rebecca had just entered the living room when she heard someone badmouthing Nelly. She immediately
took off her slipper and threw it at Roman, “So you were the one who hurt Nelly!”
Still not satisfied, Granny Rebecca took off her other slipper and threw it at Roman, but this time it didn’t hit him.
Sabrina stood up to
block it for her son.
She jumped forward, standing in front of Roman, and pointed at Granny Rebecca, “Who do you think you are, you
old hag? If you dare touch a hair on his head, believe me, you’ll regret it.”
Granny Rebecca no longer cared to listen to anyone. She glared at the man who once hurt Nelly, “You bastard.
What you did to Nelly is in the past, and I won’t hold it against you. But you, you shameless man, after all these
years, you’re still trying to stir up trouble and smear her name.”
