Chapter 703
Briana was feeling pretty hurt. “Granny, my brother gets hitched and suddenly I’m invisible. You have Cornelia and
you don’t need your granddaughter anymore? Don’t forget who was massaging your back this afternoon.”
“You silly girl, go play. Granny wants to have a chat with Cornelia,” Granny Luisa said with a grin, waving Cornelia
over. “Nelly, come sit
with Granny.”
Comelia scampered down the stairs to Granny Luisa’s side, eyes darting around. Marcus wasn’t in his third floor
room, and the lobby was empty. Where had he gone?
Granny Luisa caught her drift, knowing young people’s bashfulness, and chuckled, “Already missing him after a few
minutes?”

“He’s your man, nothing to be shy about,” Granny Luisa laughed. “Your granny is coming back from shopping, so I
sent him to pick her up. You stay here and chat with me.”
“Alright.” Cornelia snuggled into Granny Luisa’s arm. “Granny, what do you want to talk about?”
Granny Luisa patted Comelia’s hand, then turned to Briana who was gazing at them inquisitively. “You go pick up
Granny Rebecca.”
“But I want to know what you’re going to talk about with Cornelia,” Briana interjected.
Granny Luisa gave a nonchalant response, “Yesterday, the Wilson family’s granny had another long chat about you
and Leo. She wants to set you two up.”
“Granny, don’t even think about pairing me with him. He’s a player, always in the tabloids with some celebrities and
influencers. Marrying him would be a disaster. Plus, I’m still young, not ready to tie the knot.” Briana was genuinely
mad at the mention of matchmaking.
“You’re not that young.” Granny Luisa replied. “Cornelia was younger than you are now when she got her marriage
license with your brother two years ago.”
“Granny Rebecca let Cornelia marry my brother because he’s handsome, fit, and loaded. A man you can rely on for
life. You can’t just pawn me off to the Wilsons just because you’re chummy with them. Anyway, I won’t agree to this
marriage.” She stormed off, as if hiding from Granny Luisa would stop her matchmaking.
Once Briana was out of sight, Granny Luisa smirked. “That kid thinks she can outsmart me. She’s still wet behind

wouldn’t use them on

The same Granny who was all bluster in front of Briana turned all smiles to Cornelia. “Nelly, tell me, what do you
think of Marc?”
“He’s very kind and treats me very well,” Cornelia concluded. The Hartleys were masters at controlling their
expressions, capable of shifting between a multitude of them in a matter of seconds.
Granny Luisa listened quietly, hoping to hear more about how great Marcus was, but Comelia didn’t elaborate.
“Cornelia, is that all you have to say about Marcus?”
Cornelia, “What kind of review are you hoping to hear?”
Granny Luisa, “You could tell me specifically how Marcus treats you well?”
“Um…” There were countless examples, but Cornelia was at a loss for words. “Granny, he’s just really kind and
caring towards me.”
