Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 250

Cornelia, with clothes she bought for her two grannies, joined the passengers who were alighting the train, waiting to get off one by one after the train reached the station. After leaving the station, she hailed a cab and went straight to Southern Summer Garden.

Once she reached her destination and saw the villa towering in front of her, Cornelia slowly realized that Jeremy's family might be a lot wealthier than she had thought.

Although the house prices in Southern Peak couldn't compete with Riverton, owning a villa in Southern Peak still required a pretty penny. Coupled with the fact that Jeremy had a house in Riverton, his family's financial situation shouldn't be too shabby.

Cornelia did a quick tally of her own assets. She didn't have much cash in her bank account, but she had a decent income from her job at the Hartley Group each month. Add that to the earnings from her studio's comics and the value of her house, she wasn't exactly broke.

After doing the math, Cornelia concluded that from a wealth perspective, she felt she was pretty much on par with Jeremy.

Her two grannies were anxiously waiting by the door, and when they saw Cornelia, they were overjoyed, "You must be tired, come inside first."

"Hi, grannies!" Cornelia put down her shopping bags and excitedly embraced her granny, "Granny, did you miss me?"

"Of course we did." Granny Rebecca ruffled her hair, revealing a brilliant smile that Cornelia hadn't seen in a while, "Come, I cooked your favorite dishes today."

When Cornelia was in school, she would come home every week, and no matter how busy or what the weather was like, granny would always personally cook her favorite dishes. After all these years, granny's first thought upon seeing her was still to cook for her.

"Granny, you always cook for me, let me cook for you today," said Cornelia.

Granny Luisa, standing on the side, voiced her jealousy, "Nelly, am I not your granny too? Why do you only hug her and not me?" Cornelia quickly turned and gave Granny Luisa a hug, and only then was she satisfied, "Good, that's more like it."

Cornelia went inside with them and proudly showed off the new clothes she bought, "Dear grannies, I got you these new clothes and shoes. They're all the same style, just different colors. You like?"

"As long as you bought them, I'll love them," said Granny Rebecca, looking at the new clothes Cornelia bought, happy but also worried, "We don't go out much and we can't wear all these new clothes. You need to save more and not waste money on this."

Granny Rebecca knew Cornelia had just bought a new house, and she felt guilty that not only could she not provide more savings to help her, but she was also spending her money.

Cornelia laughed and replied, "Granny, I only buy you clothes once a year, so don't worry about me."

Granny Luisa, who was born into a wealthy family and married a rich man, was a strong woman in business when she was young. She never worried about the little things in life and was okay with her children spending money on her, "If Nelly bought it for me, then I won't refuse."

She was cheerful and selected a more brightly colored coat to try on, "Young people really do have good taste. Wearing this coat, I feel like I've gotten several years younger."

Influenced by Granny Luisa, Granny Rebecca also started trying on clothes.

All of the clothes were carefully selected by Cornelia. Both old ladies felt comfortable wearing them and couldn't stop complimenting Cornelia.
