Chapter 875
“You might think that incident had a huge impact on my life, a stain that can’t be wiped clean… but that’s not quite
right. We’re the victims here, why should someone else’s
mistake become the stain on our lives?
“I used to think the same way you do, just like a lot of people I was scared that people would criticize me because
of it, scared that they’d look at me with judgemental
eyes.
“Then I met Marcus, who firmly told me that such things shouldn’t make the victims feel shameful, it’s the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtperpetrators who should face the severe punishment of the law.” Speaking of Marcus, Cornelia continued the
conversation, “Granny, I know you like Marcus a lot. He’s indeed a great husband, not only rich and influential but
also handsome with a good physique. Men like him are rare. I’m lucky to have met him and I will cherish him, so
you can rest assured.
“More importantly, Marcus is a really good person, he treats me so well that sometimes it feels like I’m dreaming
“He just told me that he will always be with me, but I’m scared to believe it. I’m scared that if I believe it, he might
suddenly leave me one day just like you…”
Cornelia reckoned, “if you harbor hopes, you’ll face disappointments. If you don’t expect anything, there’ll be no
disappointments.”
She dared not to have high expectations of Marcus now, because even her granny could leave her, maybe Marcus
would deceive her too…
“Granny, my mom left me, my dad left me, and you left me… did I really annoy you all? If not, why wouldn’t you all
stay with me longer?”
As she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks like a flood breaking through a dam, and she couldn’t control her
emotions, “But I’ve always behaved.”
“I’ve been obedient since I was a child. Anything you didn’t want me to do, I didn’t do. Whatever you wanted me to
do, I did. I’ve been so good, why did you all leave me?”
Sometimes, Cornelia would wonder, if she had been a naughty child, would her parents not have left her?
“Granny, is it because I married Marcus, you thought he could take care of me for a lifetime, so you don’t have to
worry about me anymore, that’s why you left me? If that’s the case, I definitely wouldn’t have listened to you and

leave.”
Cornelia spoke and thought in confusion. She said a lot, a lot of things she had thought about but never spoken out
loud.
Some of the things she said, she had said to her granny countless times. She kept repeating them, because this was
the last time she could talk to her granny.
From then on, she would never have the chance again.
She had completely lost her granny.
She didn’t have her granny anymore. In this world, there were no more family related to her by blood.
