Marcus glanced at her flat tummy, wanting to say something but couldn't , and let the driver drive away.
Cornelia took a taxi to the hospital and found out that her grandma had been transferred back to the general ward and had dismissed the caregiver arranged by Jeremy.
Grandma's reason was that she didn't want to waste money, but Cornelia still sensed something unusual. "Grandma, what did you and Jeremy talk about this afternoon?"
Grandma held Cornelia's hand, gently patting it. "Nelly, if you decide to divorce, just do it. Grandma supports you."
Since her grandma mentioned it, Cornelia wanted to be honest with her about her real situation with Jeremy, but she didn't dare to take the risk. "Grandma, Jeremy is just busy with work; we're actually doing well..."
Seeing Cornelia trying so hard to comfort her, , Granny Rebecca felt even more distressed and regretful. "When I asked you to marry Jeremy, I thought he was someone you could trust for a lifetime. I hoped you'd have a complete and happy family, and that someone could protect you in my place."
Cornelia understood her grandma's good intentions. "Grandma, I understand."
"You don't understand," Granny Rebecca wiped away her tears. "You got married for my sake, struggled to maintain this broken marriage, I never wanted to see that. My only wish is for you to be happy. Since this marriage brings you both pain and stress, why not end it?"
"Grandma, do you really think so?" Her grandma's enlightenment and support made Cornelia very happy. It turned out she had misunderstood her grandma's good intentions all along.
Granny Rebecca patted her head, " You tell Jeremy now, set a time to get the divorce procedures done."
"Okay." Cornelia quickly took out her phone and typed a message, "Mr. Artis, I can go through the divorce procedure, and when should we schedule it?"
After sending the message, Cornelia didn't wait for Jeremy's reply but received a call from Ryan. "Ms. Stewart, at 2 pm tomorrow, City Hall, bring the relevant documents. This time I hope you can be on time ."
"Grandma, I need to go back and prepare the files. Lilian, please take more care of my grandma."
