Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 880

Every member of this family exuded a powerful vibe, especially Marcus.

He stepped in front of Cornelia, his imposing aura causing the group of gossiping women to step back. The family came together to protect Cornelia, making her feel like she wasn't alone anymore, and it felt really nice to be protected.

She looked up at them, and though words of gratitude were beyond her, she silently took them to heart, "Granny Luisa, Bri... let's head upstairs and not argue with them."

Cornelia led them towards the elevator. She knew the way so well that she went ahead, not expecting to run into another woman, who was Robison's wife Cristina.

The last time Cornelia returned to Rosenberg, she had a run-in with them. Today, Cristina came up to her as if nothing had happened. "Nelly, aren't you going to introduce your husband? Your Grandma's place must be covered in dust from being empty for so long. How about you and your husband stay at my place?"

Cornelia had always disliked this annoying woman. Knowing Cristina's intentions were far from pure, she brushed her off, "Out of my way!"

Cristina didn't take the hint, and turned to Granny Luisa, "Hello, I don't know if Nelly has mentioned me. I'm Robison's wife, Cristina. So I'm her family. Nelly can be a bit stubborn, I hope you all understand."

Having watched them for a while, Cristina figured Cornelia's husband must be wealthy and was determined to ingratiate herself with them.

If she played her cards right, she might gain something from their wealth.

"Nelly is stubborn? We haven't noticed. And it seems like Nelly isn't too fond of you." Granny Luisa was a smart woman and knew exactly what to say.

Sure enough, Cristina's expression changed at her words. But Cristina had no shame. Unfazed, she replied, "You're right, Nelly isn't very fond of me."

Sighing a pitiful sigh, she continued, "After Nelly's mother left, I raised her like my own. Kids rebel sometimes. The more I cared for her, the more she resented me. She blamed me for her mother's absence."

This kind of shameless people, Granny Luisa had seen far too many of them. To deal with them, one really can't leave them with dignity, "You sure do think highly of yourself. You know what kind of person you are better than anyone. Stop blocking the way and move."

When Cristina's attempts to win over Granny Luisa failed, she turned her attention to Cornelia's Grandma.

She turned to Cornelia, "Nelly, why didn't your Grandma come with you and your husband to Rosenberg? Does she disapprove of your marriage?"

Cornelia lifted the urn in her hands, "My Grandma is right here. If you have any complaints in the future, keep your voices down. I worry she might hear you and come to visit in the night."

"Your Grandma... she's passed away?" Cristina looked at Cornelia holding the urn, a chill running down her spine.

Cornelia ignored her, leading the group towards the elevator.

Watching their retreating figures, Cristina was more convinced than ever of their wealth. She was determined to get some of it for herself. She decided to wait downstairs, believing they would come back down soon. They all seemed too refined to stay in a place that resembled a warehouse.
