Chapter 1012
She lifted her head to meet a pair of threatening eyes, and it scared her so much that she forgot to breathe for a
moment. She kept quiet, and Cornelia paid no mind to her. Grabbing Marcus, she was mady to leave. “Are you
coming with me to pick up Tablia from Abby’s or going to my place first?”
Marcus. Til wait for you here. You go get her
Comelia Alright. People here love to gossip, if you hear anything just ignore them.”
Marcus just smiled. “Sure”
After Cornelia left Marcus quickly went back to the woman. He looked at her. “Didn’t you know that several families
in your neighborhood have moved out?”
Leila and Marina Orlando’s family, sold their houses at a low price and hurriedly moved out a few days ago. It
looked like they were fleeing.
The neighbors said that Orlando had committed a crime and his family were so ashamed that they quickly sold

Rosenberg
The woman never doubted these words before But now, hearing his tone, it seemed that things weren’t that simple
The woman clenched her fists tightly and looked at Marcus with fear. “Did they move because of you? What are you
trying to do?”
Marcus laughed coldy. “Are you thinking of moving too?”
The woman quickly shook her head. The neighborhood was old and the house prices were low. The money from
setting her house wouldn’t even be enough for a down payment on a new one. She didn’t have a salary, her family
was living off her husband’s meager wage. They were already struggling, and she had no money to get a better
house
Marcus. “If you don’t want to move, do as I say”
The woman didn’t know what she should do, so she just nodded, “TI do as you say”
When Comelia reached Abigail’s house, she knocked on the door but there was no answer. She called Abigail and
found out everyone was looking for her
Upon receiving her call, Abigail suddenly started crying, “Smelly Nelly, I was so scared when I couldn’t find you. Do
you have any idea how terrified I was?”
Cornelia chuckled and gently said. “What are you afraid of?”
Abigail, “There’s a lot of things that scare me”
Abigail was scared that Cornelia wouldn’t be able to recover from losing her grandma, scared that Cornelia would
be tormented to the point of suicide, and even more scared that someone would hurt Cornelia.
During the time she couldn’t find Comelia, all sorts of terrible thoughts came into Abigail’s mind. The more she
thought about them, the more scared she got. Thankfully.
Cornelia was safe
Cornelia. Tm okay, you guys hurry back.”
Abigail, “Okay, I’ll notify everyone.”
Cornetia. “Jeremy is also in Rosenberg I’ll take him home first. Can you bring Tahlia to my place later?”

followed. Were you picking him up just now, is that why your phone wasn’t reachable?”
Cornelia didn’t want Abigail to worry, so she nodded, “Yes, I got a call from him and rushed to the airport I
accidentally switched my phone to airplane mode.”
Abigail sighed in relief, “Smelly Nelly, as long as you’re okay…”
Comelia, “Nothing will happen to me, don’t overthink ”
Abigail, Then you just stay home and wait for me. Don’t go wandering around.”
Cornelia, “Alright”
When Cornelia went downstairs and walked out of the building, she saw the woman standing at the door, looking
around as if she was waiting for her. Cornelia originally planned to pretend she didn’t see her, but the woman came
over smiling as soon as she saw her.
Her attitude towards Cornelia had completely changed, “Nelly, I misspoke earlier, I said something wrong. I’m
sincerely sorry, I hope you can forgive me.”
