Chapter 797


    Corinne was getting hungry at that hour too, and her fetus was growing bigger by the day. It was


    natural for a pregnant woman to eat more than before, and she also got hungry very quickly unlike in


    the past.


    Like every grandfather and grandmother, they adored it when the younger generations enjoyed their


    food. The old couple was no different, and they smiled warmly when they saw Corinne helping herself


    to the food. They then took turns heaping up her te with more food. Beatrice took some chicken


    wing for Corinne when she noticed the peculiar way Corinne held her cutlery. She was taken aback for


    a moment, and her pupils contracted as she looked at Corinne’s face.


    Corinne had a quirky way of holding cutlerypared to most people, and the same


    quirkiness had been present in their eldest granddaughter, Luna when she was still young. Beatrice


    remembered the various methods she and her family used to try and rid Luna of that bad habit, but


    they never seeded.


    A wave of sadness hit Beatrice when she thought of her missing granddaughter, Luna. When she saw


    the simrities between Corinne and Luna, she began to doubt herself and specte on Corinne’s


    identity.


    She had the feeling that Corinne looked simr to Luna when she first saw Corinne, and even


    Corinne’s age seemed just about right, too. Though a person’s facial features would be vastly


    different from when they were a child, their overall appearance and behavioral habits often remained


    the same.


    At first, Beatrice felt that she was overthinking things as it could not have been that big of a


    coincidence. Nheless, Corinne’s overall appearance looked like that of her missing granddaughter,Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.


    and even their bad habit of holding cutlery was the same.


    However, Luna had a signature cherry-red mole between her eyebrows, which Corinnecked.


    When Corinne ced the cutlery down and reached out to take a ss of water, Beatrice tentatively


    asked, “Corinne, I hope you don’t take this the wrong way, but I’m curious to know. more about your


    family situation. You said before that your mother isn’t around anymore, so if you don’t mind me asking,


    do you have any other family members?”


    Corinne stopped drinking the water and replied calmly, “No. There’s no one else.”


    Cedric felt that his wife’s question was a little inappropriate, so he reminded her, “Why are you asking


    that sort of question again? Let her eat in peace!”


    Beatrice ignored him as the urge to confirm her doubts was simply too strong. She stared intently at


    Corinne’s face and asked, “Does that mean you have no family?”


    Corinne nodded. “I guess you could say that.”


    Beatrice then asked, “Did all your family members pass away?”


    Cedric kicked his wife lightly under the table to stop her from asking any more questions, but she


    merely red at him and ignored his reminder.


    Corinne sipped some more water and replied calmly, “After my mother left, I was sent to foster care in


    the countryside. The rtives of my foster family didn’t like me, so they sent me


    to the nunnery up the mountain, and I was raised by the sisters there. My so-called family members are


    still alive, but they’re like strangers to me. It makes no difference whether they’re alive or not.”


    Both the Carews and the Riveras were the same to her. She felt nothing for them.


    Cedric had a distressed look after listening to Corinne’s life story. “Poor child. You might have had it


    very rough when you were still young, but it’s all okay now. If you want, you can always treat our ce


    like your home!”


    Corinne put down her cup and smiled brightly. “I really appreciate your kindness, Grandpa Cedric, but


    I’m happy now. I have friends and a partner I consider to be my very own small family.”
