Chapter 932
Comelia said, “Your sister always thinks you’re picking on me. You gotta take a good hard look at how she sees you.”
Marcus replied, “She’s always got some wild ideas. Don’t even sweat it”
Cornelia responded, “No way, you can’t just ignore her Bri is your sister. She went through some tough stuff when she was little, and you’re the one she holds most dear. If you love Bri, you gotta let her know how much you care about her, make her see that you value her just as much. Don’t be like me I regret not telling my grandma how much I loved her every day. Now I don’t have a chance anymore.”
Marcus got Cornelia’s drift. He opened the door for Briana, saying, “Bri, I care about Cornelia. I would never bully her. You don’t need to worry”
Briana was caught off guard by his serious explanation. “I knew you wouldn’t bully Cornelia. I just wanted her to know that she matters to me. If you guys ever fight, I’ll be right there, backing her up.”
Marcus ruffled Briana’s hair, “That’s just like you, always looking out for her.”
Briana said, “I love you too, you know”
Marcus replied, “Same here. You, Cornelia, and Granny Luisa, you guys are my world.”
Brana knew Marcus cared for her but he was never the affectionate type to express it. So when he said those words, it blew her away. She ran up to Marcus, hugged his neck and gave him a peck on the cheek, “I love you so much!”

Cornelia said, “He’s always loved you.”
Before, when Marcus‘ feelings for her were mentioned, Briana always had her doubts. But today, all those doubts vanished, and she lifted her head high. “I know!”
Cornelia said, “Bri, go use the bathroom. Then go back to bed”
Briana asked, “Are you guys using it? If you are, go ahead, I can hold it.”
Briana was ready to give them some space and return to bed. As she turned around, she caught a rather intense gaze that made her uncomfortable.
She knew what the gaze meant. She looked around to make sure no one else was there. Indeed, the gaze belonged to the man she was suspecting. She greeted him, “Morning, Mr. Ruck!”
“Morning Caught peeking, Zack scratched his head in embarrassment, “How are you finding the weather in Rosenberg? Sleep well last night? If the bed’s uncomfortable or if you need anything, just let me know. Rosenberg’s my hometown, I know it like the back of my hand. I’ll do my best to make sure you’re happy… Zack was all chatty and enthusiastic. Briana smiled at him, curtly replied, “No need.”
With this succinct reply, Briana made it clear she was not interested in Zack’s offerings, leaving no room for him to manoeuvre.
Zack said, “No worries…”
