Chapter 704
A simple answer like that wasn’t gonna cut it for Granny Luisa, she was burning to know what was going on in Cornelia’s head. “Nelly, I’m not trying to pile pressure on you. I’m just worried. Worried that you two won’t stick together, worried that one day youll up and leave Marc, leaving him all alone.”
Comelia was taken aback. Marcus was such a calch, so many women would kill to marry him, why were they always worried that nobody would want him?
Comelia didn’t have an answer. Right now, it wasn’t about figuring out why, but calming Granny Luisa down. “Granny, don’t worry, we’ve decided to spend the rest of our lives together. We’re gonna work hard at this, okay?”
“Some things just can’t be promised forever,” Granny Luisa’s eyes filled with worry in an instant. “Nelly, has Marc ever told you about his parents?”
Cornelia, “He’s mentioned them.”
Granny Luisa, “Then let me tell you some stuff Marc doesn’t even know. Wanna hear?”
Comelia, “Go ahead.”
Granny Luisa, “His father, my son, was in love with someone but agreed to a marriage of convenience. After the Kamp family helped him secure his position, he divorced and went back to his old flame.
“To be more precise, he never really cut off ties with that woman. He was sneaking around behind his wife’s back with her, and had a son with her who was just two days younger than Marc.”
Just two days younger!
That meant this man was sleeping with his wife and his mistress at the same time.
Comelia was seething inside at the thought of that man. “Granny, Marc is nothing like his father, he would never mess around behind my back.”
Granny Luisa, “After all the lies he’s told you, you still trust him?”
Cornelia, “We’ve worked together for a year, and I know what kind of person he is. I believe in him because I know him.”
Granny Luisa, “I don’t trust him, he’s got that man’s blood in his veins…
Cornelia firmly said, “Granny, I completely disagree with that. Brennen and Marc, they’re totally different people. Marc shouldn’t have to pay for someone else’s mistakes.”
Hearing Cornelia say that, seeing her defend Marcus so fiercely, had Granny Luisa over the moon. But she had to play it cool.
The person she had personally chosen hadn’t let her down.
