Chapter 934
No dad was cool with other dudes digging his daughter, especially when that dude had been a thorn in your side.
Zack didn’t say anything Marcus‘ words were a punch to his gut
Cornelia quickly pulled Marcus aside, “Come help me with breakfast. They will wake up soon.”
In the kitchen, Cornelia gave him a look, “What’s your deal?”
Marcus, “Isn’t it obvious?”
Cornelia, “Absolutely, so clear it hurts”
Marcus, “How can I sit back while he’s after Bri?”
Comelia, “Zack and I both come from humble backgrounds. You think he’s not good enough for Bri, does that mean you think I’m not good enough for you?”

Marcus hadn’t thought that far, he just didn’t want other guys fancying his little sister, “That’s not what I mean”
Comelia, “But it sounds like it is.”
Marcus felt like he couldn’t explain himself, so he didn’t bother.
Cornelia went on, “Zack knows better than to bother Bri. I wish you’d stop saying things that hurt him.”
“Comelia!” He said her name with a low growl, with a hint of anger in his voice.
Comelia, “Am I wrong? You’re even getting mad!”
Marcus, “You know, when you defend him like that, it makes me jealous.”
Comelia hadn’t expected him to be so upfront about his feelings, and it softened her, “I’ve told you before, Zack and Abby are like family to me, they’re important to me, I treasure them”
Marcus spoke grumpily. “So they’re important, but I’m not?”
Cornelia, “You’re important in different ways.”
Marcus probed, “How is it different?”
Cornelia said, “They’re my family, and you’re my husband. Of course, my relationship with them is different from my relationship with you.”
That answer satisfied Marcus and his mood improved, I’ll watch my words in the future.”
Comelia, “Do you want to apologize to Zack?”
