Chapter 924
Zack said, “Let’s play a few more rounds, shall we? Wanna see if I can beat ya?”
“Nope, we gotta catch some Z’s, replied Comelia. “You guys can take a quick snooze on the study floor for a couple hours before it’s our turn.”
“As men, we can totally pull an all–nighter. You ladies go rest. We got this,” Zack insisted.
Marcus backed him up, “You guys go ahead, we’ll hold the fort.”
Comelia wanted to chime in about Marcus‘ health, but Tanisha dragged her away, “Alright, you two stay put, we’ll go take a breather”
The ladies all retreated into the study.
Once the door was shut, Tanisha tumed to Cornelia, “Nelly, don’t spoil your man too much, Pampering them will only make them lazy and you’ll be the one breaking your back.”
Sonya nodded along. “Nelly, just look at those two. They’re the result of our pampering.
When we just got married, my husband would help out with the cooking. Later, when I was pregnant and staying home, I’d prepare dinner early to ease his workload
At first, he cared and would ask if I was tired. But as time went by, it became an expectation. If I didn’t cook one day, he’d get pissed.
I work just like him. Why does he get to chill on the couch and watch TV while I have to cook?”
Comelia had heard similar stories before, I’ll keep what you said in mind”
“These are life experiences” Tanisha said. “Don’t just listen, remember them. Abby, you’re gonna get married one day too, so listen up.”
“I’m all ears,” Abigail reassured them.
Sonya set up the bedding and laid down, then asked Cornelia, “Nelly, did you spill all the beans to Jeremy?”
Comelia nodded, “Yeah”
Sonya looked worried, “It’s good to be honest in a marriage, but you shouldn’t tell your partner everything. Some secrets are meant to be kept.”
“Got it,” said Cornelia.
“Those old stories of yours are circulating on the internet, Jeremy must know by now. Does he mind…”
It was understandable for a man to mind, Sonya was right to worry.
“Jeremy doesn’t mind,” Cornelia cut her off, “And the decision to release the video was made together with him.”
Hearing this, Sonya relaxed, “As long as he doesn’t mind. But we still have some words of wisdom for you, are you willing to listen?”
Cornelia didn’t have a mom, and both women thought of her as their daughter, so when she got married, they both wanted to warn her about something.
