Chapter 1109
He made his point and Comella couldnât argue anymore, âGrandpa Duman, donât feel upsel, I agree
The expression on Grandpa Duranâs face brightened instantly, âHannah, Rosie, you heard that, right? Nelly agreed to be my granddaughter You are my witnesses, so she canât back out.â
Hannah said, âDonât worry, Nelly is very trustworthy. If she promises something, sheâll absolutely do it.â
Rosie nodded, âYes, Grandpa Duran, you can relaxâ
Grandpa Duran replied, âThatâs good, as long as she doesnât change her mind. Nelly, letâs go to the Capital now, we need to hold a formal adoption ceremony.â
Comelia fell silent. She felt like she was stuck in a situation she couldnât get out of. She quickly said, âGrandpa Duran, I need to discuss this with Marcusâ
Grandpa Duran asked, âDiscuss what? Whatâs there to discuss? I want to take you as my granddaughter, itâs between us two. Heâs an outsider, whatâs it have to do
with him?â
Comelia quietly reminded, âGrandpa Duran, heâs not an outsider. Heâs my husbandâ
Grandpa Duran replied, âSo what? If one day you feel uncomfortable with him, you can leave him anytimeâ
âOld Duran, youâre crossing the line. You want Nelly to be your granddaughter, Iâve been supporting you guys. Why are you encouraging her to leave me?â A deep. sexy voice echoed from the cafe entrance. It was Marcus.
Steven and Lucas were night behind him.
Grandpa Duran said, âIâm talking with my granddaughter, what gives you the right to butt in?â
Marcus walked over to Cornelia and wrapped his arm around her, as if claiming his territory. âOld Duran, sheâs not your granddaughter yet, but sheâs my wife.â
Grandpa Duran asked, âSo what?â
Concerned that they would argue over her, Cornelia quickly said, âGrandpa Duran, Marcus is my husband. Before making big decisions, I will definitely seek his opinion.â
Marcus was pleased that Cornelia was defending him and looked smugly at Grandpa Duran, âOld Duran, letâs listen to Nellyâs opinion.â
Grandpa Duran grumbled, âTm tolerating you now because Cornelia hasnât officially become my granddaughter. After the adoption ceremony, youâll seeâ
Of course, this was just to unsettle Marcus. He liked Comelia and definitely wanted her to have a happy marriage, and wished for Marcus and Cornelia to be together forever.
Marcus knew it was a joke, âCool, you can deal with me later. Now letâs all sit down, have a coffee and chatâ
Grandpa Duran replied. Iâm chatting with these girls, why are you guys butting in?â
Afraid that Cornelia wouldnât like him, he spent as much time as he could with her, trying to become good friends with her and her friends, hoping they would speak. well of him. He definitely didnât want these annoying men to mess up his plan. But these men didnât care Steven and Lucas sat down next to their wives.
Lucas said, âBecause Marc is worried youâll steal his wife.â
Grandpa Duran replied, âI think youâre worried Iâll steal your wifeâ
Lucas said. âNot warned at all, it would be Rosieâs luck if you did
Grandpa Duran said, âYouâve learned to flatter, havenât you?â
He turned to Steven who hadnât said a word. He had a lot to say when they met before, but today he didnât even say hello. Had he become mute?
âSteven, did someone poison you to silence? Or are you mad at me?â Grandpa Duran asked.
