“They all have their own lives, nobody owes anyone anything. The ones truly getting screwed over are
you and B You two are ther flesh and blood, but they never took care of you As for your father, he sure
does heck of a job taking care of his bastard son
After hearing Granny Luisa’s words, any last shed of respect Marcus had for that couple was gone
The guy had a girl he liked before they got married if he wanted to be with her he should ve ditched the
mariage alliance and not enjoyed its perks while chasing after his so called true love
If it was true love, he shouldn’t have made her his mistress and kept her hanging around for years
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe dude is nothing but a spineless wimp, always blaming others for his screw–ups.
Marcus scoffed saying “Granny Brt and I are all grown up now”
“Does growing up mean forgetting about the past?” Granny Luisa mentioned their son, her voice filled
with helplessness I was worned you’d end up like your parents, that’s why I wanted you to marry a gift
from ar ordinary family hoped you would have a simple, happy life”
Marcus understood Granny’s intentions, it was also why he agreed to get married I know, Granny”
Marcus was nothing like his father, which relieved Granny Luisa “Marc, I told you all this to let you know
that there’s no fixed pattern to marriage. Every couple has their own way of getting along As long as
you genuinely want to be with Comelia and treat her well, shell feel your sincerity, got it?”
Marcus nodded, “I got it”
Ainght then let’s have dinner After dinner, head back to Riverton and spend more time with Nelly Don’t
leave her alone at home if you two can patch things up before the New Year, it’ll be a livet) celebration”
Marcus said. “Granny, Cornelia doesn’t know Im Jeremy”
Granny Luisa was surprised “What do you mean?”
He continued, “You should know i got a new assistant when I came back
He had mentioned it before, and Granny Luisa remembered, “Uh–huh, I know”
Marcus awkwardly adjusted his glasses and said, “Cornelia is my new assistant. We met in the
company after we got our marriage certificate, but neither of us knew each other. I planned to pick her

divorce and I saw her at the city hall did I realized made a huge mistake”
Granny Luisa understood what he meant but it was so absurd she could hardly believe it: “Wait, you’re
saying Cornelia is your new assistant, and she doesn’t even know her boss is her husband?”
Marcus nodded Ive gotten myself into a dead end I can’t tell her Im her husband”
Granny Luisa asked, “Why didn’t you reveal your identity the moment you realized she was your wife?”
Marcus confessed, “Because I kept pushing her to divorce when she needed help the most. She has a
terrible impression of Jeremy, so I didn’t have the guts to tell her that I am Jeremy.”
Granny Luisa immediately realized the seriousness of the situation “Silly boy, not revealing your identity
at the right time makes it look like you have ulterior motives. If I were Nelly. I’d definitely think you were
just trying to see if I was after your money
