    Chapter 706


    The ten–year sentence for Marcus was a total joke. If it were up to her, she would have thrown him in


    the mmer for at least twenty years to ease her resentment.


    Wiping away a tear, Granny Luisa turned to Cornelia, “Nelly, do you get why I’m saying all this?”


    Comelia nodded, “I do, Grandma. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Marcus. I won’t let him get hurt


    again.”


    Granny Luisa chuckled, “I don’t want you to shoulder more, I just want you two to have a kid and live a


    good life.”


    Hearing that reassured Granny Luisa. Her wish was simple; for them to have a good life, have some


    kids, and have a harmonious family. “I will, Comelia replied, “I’ll have lots of kids with Marcus. Not just


    to reassure Granny Luisa, but because she truly loved kids.


    She nned to have at least two kids, so they would have each other. Their home would be lively and


    not like her own, where she only had her grandmother after her parents passed away.


    Granny Reba’s voice echoed from the doorway, “Right, have a few. At least two.” Cornelia turned to


    see not just Granny Reba at the door, but Marcus and Briana too.


    So not just her grandmother heard her say she wanted lots of kids, Marcus definitely heard too. As


    Cornelia looked at him, he was also looking at her, their gaze meeting halfway.


    Briana watched them, seeing their silent exchange. She worried for her brother. The elders were


    expecting kids, and her brother couldn’t voice his own health issues. Wouldn’t all this pressure fall on

    Poor Cornelia. To protect Marcus‘ pride, she had to swallow her own grievances.


    Cornelia tried to ignore the flutter in her heart caused by Marcus and stood up to approach Granny


    Reba, “Grandma, where were you? If you need something, let me buy it for you. Don’t go yourself.”


    Granny Reba ruffled her hair, “You’re a married woman now. You should be mindful of your image.


    There’re people watching, you can’t just run into my arms like a child.”


    Cornelia didn’t care. “So, I’m not your granddaughter anymore because I’m married?”


    “Of course you still are,” Granny Reba replied.


    “Then why can’t I run into your arms?”


    Granny Rebaughed, “You’re getting sweeter with your words.”


    Granny Luisa chimed in, “Reba, we don’t have so many rules in our house. Nelly marrying into the


    Hartley family makes her my own granddaughter.”


    Granny Reba said, “You can love her all you want. But as the elder, I should be the one to teach her


    manners. Otherwise, people will say the Stewart familycks etiquette.”
