Granny Luisa was truly distressed, "Nelly, let Marc deal with this. I promise, from now on, nobody will dare to badmouth you behind your back or bully you again."
Cornelia chuckled, "I can handle it myself."
Granny Luisa said, "Nelly, don't be so stubborn. They bully you because they think you're just a girl and have no one to rely on. But now you do have someone, you need to lean on us and we won't let them bully you."
Cornelia said, "I know. Because I have someone to rely on, I'm not afraid of anything. I won't let anyone mess up with me again."
When the locksmith arrived, he was surprised to see Cornelia, "You're the one who wants to unlock the door?"
Cornelia said, "Yes, what's the problem?"
The locksmith said, "You don't know? Robison changed this lock. He told everyone that this house would be his. Anyone who dares to unlock his door, he will destroy their house. Plus, nobody here wants you back. You better stay away and don't embarrass yourself."
After saying that, the locksmith turned to leave.
Marcus suddenly said, "You think you can just leave without unlocking the door?"
His tone didn't change much, but it was enough to stop the locksmith in his tracks. Marcus commanded, "Unlock it now!"
As soon as the locksmith heard this, he put down his toolbox and took out his tools and unlocked the lock as fast as he could.
