Chapter 1483
After Zavier Rivera left, Lucas felt a bit bummed out. He looked at Jeremy with worry. “Marc, you really have no clue at all?”
Jeremy didn’t plan to hide anything from Lucas. “I’ve been to the scene before. Skyler may have faked her death.”
Lucas asked, “You found out a while ago?”

Jeremy responded, “I just had some hunches, but wasn’t sure.”
Lucas asked, “So do you know where she went?”
Jeremy shook his head. “I haven’t been there. I guess she probably didn’t want anyone who knows Zavier to know her whereabouts.”
Lucas said, “That woman is really cold-hearted. For the first time, she was willing to sacrifice her own child to escape from Zavier. The second time, she even risked
her own life…”e
Before Lucas could finish, Cornelia walked in with Hope and Rosie. Rosie’s eyes widened as she looked at Lucas and Jeremy. “Is it true? Is Skyler really still alive?”
Lucas said, “Darling, until we find Skyler, we can’t be sure she’s still alive. Don’t get too worked up.”
Rosie excitedly said, “Then you guys should hurry and find her. We must find Skyler. We must confirm that she’s still alive.”
Lucas said, “Sweetheart, cool your jets and think about it. If Skyler is alive, would she want us to find her?”
“Nelly, what do you think?” Unable to find an answer, Rosie instinctively turned to Cornelia, who was looking at Jeremy.
Cornelia asked, “What are the odds that Skyler is still alive?”
Jeremy took Hope from her arms and said earnestly, There’s probably a seventy to eighty percent chance. But don’t get your hopes up too high until we have concrete news so that you won’t be disappointed later.”
Hearing this, Cornelia didn’t know whether to be happy or not. But as long as there was a glimmer of hope that Skyler was still alive, she had to believe that Skyler was still around.
She turned to Rosie and said, “Rosie, if Skyler is alive, she has our contact information but hasn’t contacted us, that means she doesn’t want to, or can’t contact us. If we go looking for her, it may only cause her trouble.”
Rosie asked, “So we can’t look for her, right?”
Cornelia replied, “Not for now.”
Hearing this, Rosie hung her head in disappointment. “So, will we ever see her again?”
Cornelia said, “If fate allows it, we will meet again.”
Rosie asked, “So do we have fate with her or not?”
Not wanting Rosie to be sad, Lucas hugged her. “It’s lunchtime, let’s go eat. After lunch, Marc and his family have to go back to Riverton, and we have to go back to
Ravenna.”
Rosie replied, “Okay.”
The meal was a quick one, as everyone had a lot on their minds. Afterwards, everyone went their separate ways.
Cornelia and Jeremy’s party consisted of six people, including their own family of three, Granny Luisa, Ayden, and Patricia.
Granny Luisa came on the third day after Cornelia’s C-section. Considering Granny Luisa’s age, Cornelia wanted her to go back to Hong Kong first, but she insisted on staying. She wanted to see her great-grandson and would get anxious if she didn’t see him every day.
The plane tickets were arranged by Jeremy; they were all first-class tickets. Even though first-class was comfortable, Cornelia felt a pang of guilt. Ever since Jeremy went broke, all the family expenses fell on her.
And they didn’t know how to save money. If things continued this way, she really worried that her income couldn’t keep up with the family’s spending speed. Luckily, she still had the assets Granny Luisa had given her before. These assets were not affected by the Hartley Group’s bankruptcy. The monthly rent income was quite substantial. She could also sell some tangible assets for cash.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
