Chapter 694
Granny Luisa looked at Grandpa’s photo and said, “Marcus brought Cornelia to see you. You take a good look at Nelly. She’s an amazing girl, not only good–looking but also very kind–hearted. Marcus winning her over is like hitting the jackpot.”
Cornelia blushed as she listened, and Briana chimed in, “Absolutely, I think it’s my brother’s good fortune to marry Cornelia.”
Granny Luisa turned to Marcus, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Marcus, “What should I say?”
Granny Luisa, ‘Do I have to spoon–feed you? Of course, you need to brag about your wife to your grandpa.”
Marcus was a bit exasperated but did as told, “Grandpa, do you see? This rosy–cheeked girl next to me is my wife, Cornelia, from Rosenberg. Today I solemnly promise you, I’ll be good to her.”
Marcus suddenly getting serious really took Cornelia aback, “Stop praising me already. I’m getting nervous.”
Granny Luisa, “You’re always blushing; get a thicker skin, especially around Marcus. If he dares bullies you, you must tell me, and I’ll give him a piece of my mind.”
Cornelia clung to Granny Luisa’s arm and said cutely, “I don’t want you to scold him. It’d hurt me if you do.”
“Oh my, starting to protect him already. If you spoil him now, he’ll take your affection for granted and might bully you in the future.” Granny Luisa said this but she was actually over the moon. What could be more heartening than Comelia protecting her grandson. “I’m not worried about him bullying me, because I feel he’s been good to me too.” This marriage may not have started out of love, but Cornelia still wanted to put in the effort.
Marcus gave her respect and care, and she wanted to reciprocate the same to him. There was no rule saying only men could pamper women, women could also pamper men.
She wanted to safeguard Marcus, wishing for his life to be peaceful without any trouble. Her wishes were as simple as that, nothing
more.
Cornelia’s words really touched Granny Luisa, who sighed again, “Nelly, Marcus is really lucky to have you.”
Cornelia said, “Meeting him is also my good fortune.”
Briana, “Granny, Cornelia, if you keep going like this, I’m gonna barf.”
