He cast a careless glance 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 my last wish before I kick the bucket, cant you just grant me this one? The old lady
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 you land 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 old lady clutched her chest, putting on a show like she could drop dead any second. “Marcus, spit

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 old lady couldnt believe her ears. What did you say? Marcus, say it again, slowly this
time”
Marcus chuckled. 1 said. I marry her.”
The old lady 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 old lady warned him, then hastily dialed a number on her cell. “Rebecca, Marcus agreed to get
married What about Nelly?”
The old lady 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 plan a grand wedding later when they have time.”
Even though nothing was set in stone, the old lady 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

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

“I know Nelly just graduated. Don’t worry, once Nelly becomes 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 old lady 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.

impression of her was quite favorable
