Chapter 872
Cornelia grew up parentless and was often bullied by other kids in elementary school, a fact that both Abigail and
Zack were well aware of
Back then, little Cornelia couldn’t defeat those bullies. When others bullied her, she would do just as she did now,
telling them that she had her grandmother, and her grandmother would protect her.
But those bully kids wouldn’t back off just because of her words. Instead, they’d bully her even more whenever she
threatened to tell her Grandma, and they wouldn’t even let her go home to snitch.
Luckily, her Grandma spotted something was off and found out about her troubles in school. She talked to the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtschool teachers, and that put an end to the bullying
In Cornelia’s eyes, even though her Grandma was now old and didn’t do things as well as Cornelia herself, she was
still her hero. Her Granny Rebecca was the superhero who protected her. She was the irreplaceable superhero in
her heart!
They all knew how much Granny Rebecca meant to Cornelia. Everyone knew she couldn’t bear to face the fact that
Granny Rebecca was gone, and they all wished she could accept it sooner and start a new life.
“Zack, Abby, come…” Cornelia walked towards Zack and Abigail, taking each of their hands, “Zack, Abby, my
Granny said your parents are working late today and won’t be home until late. So, you guys are coming to my place
after school. We’re going to have dinner and do our homework together”
Both Abigail and Zack turned to look at Marcus.
Marcus made the decision straight away, “Just go along with it for now. She hasn’t eaten in hours, just coax her into
having a meal.
Abigail and Zack nodded and said to Cornelia, “Let’s have dinner first then, we’ll do homework afterwards.”
“Alright, let’s eat first.” Cornelia led them towards the dining room, “My Granny must’ve made something delicious
for us. Make sure you two eat a lot.”
Abigail hugged Cornelia, “Nelly…”
Cornelia looked at her, “Abby, what’s wrong? Don’t you always love the food my Granny makes? You don’t look too
happy today.”
Abigail replied, “I’m not unhappy, I’m just…
Cornelia asked, “What? Having trouble with today’s homework? Don’t worry, if there’s anything you don’t
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmunderstand, you can ask my Granny. She loves kids who study hard.”
Abigail nodded vigorously, “Alright.”
Cornelia turned to Zack, “Zack, what’s up with you? You’re usually the chatterbox, why so quiet today?”
Being immersed in past memories can be blissful, but it can also have unexpected consequences. Zack didn’t want
to see Comelia continue like this. He wanted to pull her back to reality, “Nelly, come with me.”
Without thinking twice, he grabbed Cornelia and headed towards the room where Granny Rebecca’s body laid. He
was strong, and Comelia was pulled along by the arm to Granny Rebecca’s side.
He pointed at Granny Rebecca’s body and said, “Cornelia, look closely, your Granny’s gone. She can’t cook for us
anymore. She can’t tutor us on our homework anymore…”
