NovelAppChapter 805 Lucas, Beverly, and Alma arrived.
"Mom, | rushed right over when | heard you woke up. | can't believe it's true!" Beverly dashed towards Cornelia, wrapping her in a warm embrace, her cries filled with deep emotion. "We were so worried about you. Thank God you're awake!" "I've heard you visited half as often as Louisa!" Cornelia said, feigning annoyance.

She praised Arabella in front of everyone, "This girl is polite, responsible, beautiful, and talented." "Yeah, Beverly and | both adore her’ Lucas interjected.
"l also like Bella, Serena, don't you?" Alma never missed an opportunity to provoke Serena.
Serena gave a graceful smile, "Of course, who wouldn't like such an outstanding girl?" "I thought you might hold a grudge against Bella because of Romeo." Alma said, her smile innocent and pure.
“Why would I? Who my brother-in-law likes is his business. Besides, | have a boyfriend now." Serena suppressed her urge to hit Alma, maintaining her polite smile. "Thank you for your blessings." Cornelia, of course, knew her two granddaughters loved to bicker whenever they met. Yet, after so many years, she saw their disputes as harmless banter between children. She had grown accustomed to it.
"You give me a headache as soon as you arrive,” Cornelia chuckled.
"Grandma, you complain if we don't come, and you complain when we do. So should we come or not?" Alma complained playfully, taking Cornelia's hand. "Do you only not get a headache when Serena visits? You've always favored her." "Nonsense. | treat all my granddaughters equally; Cornelia retorted, suddenly realizing one was missing.

After a while of casual conversation, Alma suggested, "Serena, | heard you've been making fruit salad lately. How about making one for Grandma?" "Can Grandma eat fruit?" Serena looked at Arabella for an answer.
"Yes, in moderation." Serena reluctantly picked up a few different types of fruit, planning to make a beautiful tree-shaped fruit salad for her grandmother.
"Serena, let me help." Knowing Alma had ulterior motives, Serena quickly declined, "No need, | can handle it. You should stay with grandma." "Are you scared I'll steal your thunder? I'm just an assistant, don't worry.” Alma cheerfully walked over, picked up a bunch of grapes, and started washing them.
The others didn't think much of it, their attention returned to Cornelia's health.
Upon learning that Cornelia woke up because of Arabella's medicine, Lucas and Beverly were in disbelief. They never expected their niece to be a miracle doctor! Alma saw everyone's attention was elsewhere, and glanced at Serena, who was peeling an apple.
