Cornella gave a nod, “I love it! This is the first house I’ve bought with my own blood, sweat and tears.”
Marcus gently patted her head, “If you want, you can have even more houses in the future”
Cornelia smiled, “I came to Riverton before I even turned eighteen, and after all these years, I finally
have my own place here. I can settle down now. But, my beloved grandma is gone forever.”
Marcus said, “Look up at the sky.”
Obediently, Cornelia lifted her gaze to the night sky. The weather was clear and a few stars were
visible, “What am I looking for?”
Marcus said, “See that brightest star? That’s your grandma. She’s become a star and is watching over
you from up there.”
Cornelia knew it wasn’t possible, but she hoped her grandma really had turned into a star. That way,
whenever she missed her, all she had to do was look up. She softly called out his name, “Jeremy”
Marcus asked, “What’s up?”
Cornelia said, “Tomorrow, I’m taking Tahlia back to Rosenberg.”
Marcus tensed up immediately, “You’re going back to Rosenberg?”
Cornelia said, “I’m taking Tahlia to see our grandparents and father. Then, I need to sort out my
grandma’s belongings. I’ll be back in Riverton in a few days.”
Marcus said, “I’ll sort out work and go with you to Rosenberg tomorrow.”
Cornelia said, “No need. I can handle all this. The company has some major projects that need your
attention. Without you, everyone will be leaderless. You should stay and focus on work.”
Marcus said, “Cornelia!”
Cornelia knew what he was worried about, “I’m not trying to shut you out. I just don’t want to be overly
reliant on you. If one person relies too much on another, they lose their ability to be independent. I don’t
want to become that person. I want to grow, so that the day we announce our marriage to the world,
everyone will bless us, and not question whether I’m worthy of you.”
Marcus said, “You’re not relying on me. I need you. Today, without you by my side, I couldn’t focus on
work at all. You’re all I could think about.”
His words moved her, but she couldn’t argue, “I understand. I’ll be back as soon as possible, back to
work.”
Marcus took her hand, “Come, I have something to show you.”
As Cornelia followed Marcus, she felt something tugging at her dress. Looking back, she saw a cute
little boy had grabbed her hem. With his big eyes on her, the boy softly said, “Miss…”
The adorable sight and his soft voice nearly melted Cornelia’s heart.
She let go of Marcus‘ hand and quickly squatted down, “Did you lose your mom?”
The boy pouted, looking like he was about to cry, “I woke up and couldn’t find my mom and dad. Did
they abandon me?”
Cornelia asked, “Where’s your home?”
The boy looked back and vaguely pointed in a direction, “Over there.”
He was pointing at the building where Cornelia lived.
Cornelia asked patiently, ‘Do you know which floor you live on?”
The boy held up a finger, then three, and finally shook his head, “I forgot.”
There were dozens of households in one building, and she couldn’t possibly check each one. And, with
the boy’s parents not home, finding his home wouldn’t be of any help.
Cornelia suggested, “Let’s go to the community management office. Maybe they can help contact your
parents, okay?”
The boy nodded vigorously, “Okay”
Every word the boy uttered made Cornelia feel all soft inside. She even thought, how nice it would be if
this boy were her and Marcus‘ child, “Can I carry you?”
The boy said, “Okay”
