He didn't want to leave a bad impression on Cornelia's grandma, so he had already done his best to control his attitude. "I'm here to tell you guys, stop messing with me and Nelly. We'll have kids when the time is right."
Granny Luisa, "I see..."
Briana thought her brother's behavior today was somewhat unusual as he didn't criticize her as he usually did.
Marcus looked at Granny Rebecca, "Granny, it’s getting late. Let me take you back to your room."
Granny Rebecca nodded, "Alright."
The more Granny Rebecca looked at Marcus, the more she was satisfied. She had seen him protecting her granddaughter Nelly several times throughout the day.
Without a glance at the other two people in the dining room, Marcus helped Granny Rebecca leave.
Once he was out of sight, Briana said, "Granny, that guy is really over the top. He was more gentle with Granny Rebecca than he was with you, and now he's only helping Granny Rebecca back to her room, but didn’t say anything about helping you."
Granny Luisa said, "Don't stir up trouble over this. Your brother married Nelly, and it's only right to be nice to Nelly, and it's also right to be nice to Nelly's grandmother."
Briana, "Sigh, I'm the real victim here. My recording device was found, and all my work for today was wasted. If they never have children, I will never get what you promised me."
Granny Luisa patted her head laughing, "Silly girl, I've already prepared a generous gift for you. If you get married now, I'll gift you another house."
"I'm still young, what’s the rush to get married? And once I am married, I will be pressured to have kids. How boring is that." Briana continued, "You should worry about Marcus instead. He's almost 29, and next year he'll be 30. It's the perfect age to have kids, you can't let him delay any longer."
Granny Luisa, "Of course I care about you too, Bri. Tell granny, what kind of man do you like? I'll help you choose."
Briana, "The person I like doesn't need to be rich, because I'm already pretty well-off myself. I don't need him to be handsome either, as the genes in our family is good enough. I want the guy I like to be talented and know all the things I don't know."
