Chapter 932
Comelia said, âYour sister always thinks youâre picking on me. You gotta take a good hard look at how she sees you.â
Marcus replied, âSheâs always got some wild ideas. Donât even sweat itâ
Cornelia responded, âNo way, you canât just ignore her Bri is your sister. She went through some tough stuff when she was little, and youâre the one she holds most dear. If you love Bri, you gotta let her know how much you care about her, make her see that you value her just as much. Donât be like me I regret not telling my grandma how much I loved her every day. Now I donât have a chance anymore.â
Marcus got Corneliaâs drift. He opened the door for Briana, saying, âBri, I care about Cornelia. I would never bully her. You donât need to worryâ
Briana was caught off guard by his serious explanation. âI knew you wouldnât bully Cornelia. I just wanted her to know that she matters to me. If you guys ever fight, Iâll be right there, backing her up.â
Marcus ruffled Brianaâs hair, âThatâs just like you, always looking out for her.â
Briana said, âI love you too, you knowâ
Marcus replied, âSame here. You, Cornelia, and Granny Luisa, you guys are my world.â
Brana knew Marcus cared for her but he was never the affectionate type to express it. So when he said those words, it blew her away. She ran up to Marcus, hugged his neck and gave him a peck on the cheek, âI love you so much!â
Then, she let go of Marcus, hugged Cornelia tight and gave her a couple of kisses, âI love you too! And thank you! Because of you, heâs changed.â
Cornelia said, âHeâs always loved you.â
Before, when Marcusâ feelings for her were mentioned, Briana always had her doubts. But today, all those doubts vanished, and she lifted her head high. âI know!â
Cornelia said, âBri, go use the bathroom. Then go back to bedâ
Briana asked, âAre you guys using it? If you are, go ahead, I can hold it.â
Briana was ready to give them some space and return to bed. As she turned around, she caught a rather intense gaze that made her uncomfortable.
She knew what the gaze meant. She looked around to make sure no one else was there. Indeed, the gaze belonged to the man she was suspecting. She greeted him, âMorning, Mr. Ruck!â
âMorning Caught peeking, Zack scratched his head in embarrassment, âHow are you finding the weather in Rosenberg? Sleep well last night? If the bedâs uncomfortable or if you need anything, just let me know. Rosenbergâs my hometown, I know it like the back of my hand. Iâll do my best to make sure youâre happy⦠Zack was all chatty and enthusiastic. Briana smiled at him, curtly replied, âNo need.â
With this succinct reply, Briana made it clear she was not interested in Zackâs offerings, leaving no room for him to manoeuvre.
Zack said, âNo worriesâ¦â
âIâm heading back to my room,â With that, Briana went back to her room.
Tanisha, who had just woken up, witnessed the interaction, âThat girlâs not into you. Donât bother her.â
Zack said, âIâm not that stubborn, okay?â
âWell, thatâs good to hear, Tanisha replied.
