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; can't 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."

"Certainly, Granny. Once she's my wife, I'll definitely treat her right."
