    He cast a careless nce at the photo and even managed to crumple it, but didn’t really get a good


    look at the girl in the picture Granny, are you sure you want me to marry this girl?”


    “Marcus, it’s myst wish before I kick the bucket, cant you just grant me this one? The olddy


    clutched her chest, coughing deliberately a few times. “Nelly is a real catch. She has a good character,


    is smart, and easy on the eyes Trust me, if yound her, you’ve hit the jackpot”


    In his twenty–something years, Marcus had never really fallen for any girl or thought about tying the


    knot. But seeing how keen his granny was to see him hitched, he was willing to fut


    her wish


    The olddy clutched her chest, putting on a show like she could drop dead any second. “Marcus, spit


    it out. What do you think of Nelly? You dig her? Listen, Eve met the girl, she’s a real keeper, both in


    looks and manners”


    “All right, Granny, I’ll do it! To him, marriage wasn’t about love, but if Granny liked her and thought she


    was good enough, then he was fine marrying anyone.


    “Say what?” The olddy couldnt believe her ears. What did you say? Marcus, say it again, slowly this


    time”


    Marcus chuckled. 1 said. I marry her.”


    The olddy was taken aback. “Marcus, you’re not messing with me, are you?”


    When have lever lied to you, Granny?”


    “Marrying her isn’t just a matter of bringing her home and ignoring her. Once she’s your wife, you’ve


    gotta treat her right. Can you handle that?”

    “Certainly, Granny. Once she’s my wife, I’ll definitely treat her right.”


    “Good, then it’s settled. No backing out. And if you dare treat Nelly poorly, I swear I’ll break your legs.”


    The olddy warned him, then hastily dialed a number on her cell. “Reba, Marcus agreed to get


    married What about Nelly?”


    The olddy was mumbling, and Marcus didn’t catch the person’s reply. All he saw was his granny


    getting more and more excited. “Nelly agreed too? That’s fantastic! Just to be safe, why don’t we get


    them to tie the knot sooner? We can n a grand weddingter when they have time.”


    Even though nothing was set in stone, the olddy was already referring to him and the girl as a


    ‘married couple“. Marcus heard it but didn’t correct her. As long as his granny was happy. he was fine


    “Yeah, yeah, you’re right. The younger generation isn’t too keen on traditional weddings these days.


    But it doesn’t matter; well go with whatever Nelly wants. If she wants a destination wedding, so be it. If


    she wants a traditional ceremony, well do that.”


    “I know Nelly just graduated. Don’t worry, once Nelly bes part of our family, we’ll treat her right.


    We won’t let her suffer at all.”


    “How about we arrange for them to pick up the marriage certificate tomorrow?”


    Without requiring any further confirmation, the olddy made all the decisions about his marriage.


    Marcus didnt question it. He always trusted his granny’s judgment. If she thought the girl was good, he


    would trust her too.


    The next day, Marcus headed to the marriage registry


    Just as he arrived, he received a call. There was a problem at the US branch that required his


    attention.


    He hung up the phone, looked up, and saw a young woman approaching him. He put down his phone


    as she asked, ‘Are you Jeremy?”


    Her voice was soft and gentle, and she was dressed formally in a white shirt and ck skirt. His first


    impression of her was quite favorable
