"They all have their own lives; nobody owes anyone anything. The ones truly getting screwed over are you and Bri. You two are their flesh and blood, but they never took care of you. As for your father, he sure does a heck of a job taking care of his bastard son."
After hearing Granny Luisa's words, any last shred 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 marriage 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.
The dude is nothing but a spineless wimp, always blaming others for his screw-ups.
Marcus scoffed, saying, "Granny, Bri, 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 worried you'd end up like your parents; that's why I wanted you to marry a girl from an ordinary family. I 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 Cornelia and treat her well, she'll feel your sincerity, got it?"
Marcus nodded, "I got it."
