"Is there really no chance of saving it?" Rebecca asked.
"Nope." Marcus's answer was clear and firm.
"Thanks for being straight with me." Granny Rebecca thought for a moment, then said, "I already knew you guys were getting a divorce. Don't tell Nelly now, just wait until I figure out how to break it to her."
Marcus said, "Alright."
After Marcus left, Granny Rebecca thought for a long time in bed. Once she had made up her mind, she called Cornelia.
Cornelia was woken up by the phone call and heard her grandma's cheerful voice, "Nelly, Jay came to visit me. He's very handsome and considerate. He had me moved to a private room and arranged for two nurses to take turns looking after me. He's thought of everything. You can rest after work today, no need to come to the hospital."
"Okay, just remember to eat on time, grandma. I'll come see you after work tomorrow." Jeremy was still a reliable guy, Cornelia thought. She sent him a thank-you message: [Mr. Artis, thanks for visiting my grandma! She's really happy now!]
After sending the message, Cornelia received a new message.
Hannah: [Cornelia, it's Hannah. I'm in Riverton now and I want to invite you to dinner. Are you free?]
Feeling hungry and considering Hannah to be a good person, Cornelia agreed: [Where should we meet? I'll be right there.]
Hannah immediately replied with an address and said: [I'll wait for you here.]
Marcus saw the message his wife had sent and sneered, thinking, "What a fool!"
Steven handed him a cigarette, "Marc, which girl has pissed you off?"
Marcus put his phone down, "What's for dinner?"
Steven said, "I'll ask my wife later. Whatever she wants to eat."
