......
After breakfast.
Cornelia had planned to meet up with Zack and Abigail. This year they weren't heading back to Rosenberg for the holidays, instead, they were inviting their parents to spend it in Riverton, so they could see their new home and attend Abigail and Dylan's wedding after the New Year.
Their flight was due in at noon, and Cornelia was definitely going to join them for lunch and catch up.
However, she decided to accompany Jeremy to meet Courtney and would have to meet Zack and Abigail's parents for dinner instead.
Jeremy protested when he heard that she wanted to accompany him to meet Courtney. "Aren't you supposed to be having lunch with Zack and Abigail's parents?"d2
Cornelia replied, "I'll spend time with them later in the evening. I'll be with you at noon."
Jeremy smiled and said, "Are you worried about me?"
Cornelia confidently admitted, "Yes."
Jeremy said, "Courtney won't eat me alive. You don't have to worry."
Cornelia replied, "I don't care, I want to be with you every second."
Jeremy had no choice but to agree, "Alright."
"Let me drive," Cornelia said. She knew how deep Jeremy's resentment towards his parents ran, and even though he hid it well, she knew he was hurting.
Jeremy suggested, "We could just get a driver."
