Chapter 313
Her brother Marcus is still the same old bossy and domineering dude no drop of gentleness
Back then, he only forbade her from hitting the bars and clubs, or mingling with bad company. Now, even her reading comics and novels are under his control
If this goes on, would he meddle in her love life, even dictate who the mames?
Staying in this house is becoming unbearable
No, the power dynamics in this house has shifted
Herter-inâlaw Comelia is way more approachable than her brother From now on, shell turn to Cornelia for help, let Comelia deal with Marcus
Disappointed Brana matantly regained he determination to stand up to Marcus, âBm, Iâm going to see Comelia nowâ
Marcus could tell she was plotting against him, but she didnât stand a chance. âHold on, I need to talk to youâ
Brana quickly hid her phone behind het. âYouâre not planning to snatch my phone, are you?â
He never needed to snatch her phone. He had plenty of ways to make her hand it over. But sheâs right, sheâs an adult now, he needed to respect her privacy, no more treating her like a kid. âAfter we go to the supermarket, find a reason to head home early I want to stroll around the supermarket alone with Corneliaâ
Hearing that he wanted to go to the supermarket with Comelia and asked her to leave early, Briana kita pang âYou favor love over family, huty if you find me annoying just go shopping with Comelia yourself Do
you think Im a toolâ
How ridiculousâ
Her brother was so shameless in his pursuit of his wifel
This time Marcus didnât say anything just gave her a look. Brians immediately shut up, obediently went upstairs to find Cornelia
Hearing that Marcus was going to the supermarket, Cornelia was in disbelief, âBri, are you sure your brother is really going to the supermarket with us? He has so much to do, isnât it a waste of time?â
Brana quickly replied, âhe is too busy with work and never had the time to go to the supermarket with my sisterâinâlaw Today heâs getting familiar with it first, so he wonât feel out of place when he goes with my
Sisterâinâlaw laterâ
So it was for his wife!
When Marcus was drunk, all he could think of was his wife It wasnât hard to understand why he would do things he would never have done before for his wife
Cornelia looked around and whispered, âBr youâre here in Pans for the holiday Why didnât Marcus bring his wife too?â
âYouâBriana realized she almost spilled the beans, she quickly said, âMy sister in law prefers peace, doesnât like going abroad. My brother gives in to her in everything, so she didnât comeâ
Comelia nodded, then raised a long standing doubt, âIve been with President Hartley for nearly a year but Iâve never met his wifeâ
âMy sisterâinâlaw doesnât like being in the spotlight. She womes itâll affect her work and life My brother does his best to protect her So many people who have met her couldnât recognize sheâs Marcusâs wifeâ Her brother always complained about her reading all these frivolous stuff Without all the novels and comics she read, how could she come up with such a good coping strategy?
