Impulsive Vow to an Enigmatic Husband novel Chapter 942

Clair felt a little helpless under this blunt attack, "You're an adult, you should know the world ain't always sunshine and rainbows."

Even though it wasn't his business, Roy always treated Cornelia like his own daughter, so he naturally felt the need to step in, "You're just not taking it seriously. You abandoned her back then, and now you're back. Who knows what your real intentions are."

Clair, "What did I do to piss you off?"

Roy, "Nothing in particular."

Clair, "Then why do you dislike me?"

Roy, "I don't dislike you. I'm just worried you have bad intentions for Nelly and will hurt her again. She can't handle any more blows right now."

No matter what she did, it seemed to draw his criticism. Clair's inner frustration had reached its peak, but on the surface, she still politely said, "Let's hear what Nelly has to say."

...

Tanisha came to Cornelia's room just as she was about to head out, pulling her back into the room, "Nelly..."

Seeing Tanisha's hesitation, Cornelia felt a bit uneasy, "What's up?"

After a pause, Tanisha asked, "If your mom came to mourn your grandma, would you let her in?"

Tanisha, "There are a lot of people here, you wait in your room, I'll bring her to you."

Cornelia, "Alright."

"I'll go get her now." Tanisha made her way to the door, then turned back, "Nelly, you seem pretty calm, did you know your mom was coming?"

Cornelia just smiled and didn't say a word. She might look calm on the outside, but inside, she was a mess. She was almost 25 now, finally about to meet her biological mother and fill that gap in her heart. How could she not be excited?

Cornelia went back to her vanity, quickly tidying her hair and clothes. She wanted to make a good impression on her mom.
