    “You think I give a damn about this chump change? Marcus was ticked off by her words. Then,


    something else stirred him up even more. When she raised her hand, he saw blood on her palm She


    must’ve scratched herself in her heated state


    He quickly grabbed her hand, “What’s wrong?”


    Cornelia didn’t feel any pain She was so flustered she tried to pull her hand back. Im fine*


    “Say you’re fine one more time. I dam you” Marcus held her hand tight, his voice stern, ‘First, were


    getting Dr. Dawson to look at your wound, then you can talk with Justin”


    Cornelia wanted to protest, but seeing his grim expression, she held her tongue and obeyed.


    Marcus arranged for Cornelia and Justin’s conversation to take ce in a greenhouse located in the


    garden, where he thought the warm atmosphere would make Corneliafortable


    He didn’t apany them was just Comelia and Justin in the greenhouse But he had a clear view of


    their every move from outside


    Boana walked up to Marcus “Bro, how can you just let Cornelia be with Justin like that? He’s obviously


    bad news What if he hurts Come?”


    “Shes mine. He wouldn’t darey a finger on her Marcus turned to nce at Briana, feeling touched by


    his little sister’s concern for Cornelia


    Suddenly, he had a brilliant idea to keep Cornelia around, “If you’re so fond of Camelia, why don’t you


    find a way to make her stay?”


    Briana replied, “I wish she could stay too. But she wants to go home I can’t think of any reason to keep


    her here. Plus, this is your private space, and you’re very territorial. If I decide to keep Cornelia here


    and you ge pissed and kick us out, it would be really awkward”


    Marcus replied “Im cool with you two staying Stay as long as you want”


    “Realty Briana thought she had misheard. “Bro, say it again”


    Hed repeat it as many times as it took to keep Comelia here. Im cool with you and Cornelia staying


    Stay as long as you want.” He said

    “Why are you suddenly being so chill?” Briana excitedly sprang to Marcus, giving him a big hug. “I get


    it, you finally realized you haven’t been giving me enough attention these past few years and you’re


    trying to make up for it Marcus, I love you! You’re the best!”


    Marcus pulled her hands off his waist, ‘Im a married man, and you’re an adult. You can’t keep hugging


    me like this?


    Briana pouted in disagreement, “Just because you’re married doesn’t mean you’re not my brother No


    matter how old I get, you’ll always be my brother. We’re blood, that’s a bond that’s set in stone the


    moment were bom What’s wrong with hugging you?”


    Marcus replied. “I’m worried that your sister–inw might get jealous”
