Chapter 359 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband

• But tonight was different. Both of them were in good health. A young man and woman, full of vigor and vitality, sharing a bed, it would easily turn into some unplanned intimacy. They were a married couple, so even if they got intimate, it wouldn’t be a big deal. The problem was that she was still a bit nervous about taking this relationship a step further. More importantly, Marcus couldn’t exactly… engage in such activities right now… She didn’t want him to feel awkward! She especially didn’t want his male pride to take a hit because of this. So she had to prevent things from getting out of hand. Sleeping with Granny tonight was her best bet. That statement surprised both grandmothers. The two old ladies exchanged glances, finally deciding to let Granny Rebecca speak first, “Nelly, you can sleep with Granny another day, not tonight.” Cornelia asked, “Granny, why not tonight?” Granny Luisa chimed in, “Tonight, you’re entering the Hartley family’s home for the first time as the wife of the Hartley family.
• Of course, you should be staying with Marc. Otherwise, it sends the wrong message. We can’t break tradition.” At dinner, Granny Luisa had just said that there weren’t so many rules in the Hartley family, and Nelly could do whatever she pleased. But now, suddenly, the rules were back. Granny Rebecca chimed in, obviously afraid Cornelia wouldn’t realize they were ganging up on her, “Yes, Granny Luisa is right. We need to start off on the right foot. Absolutely can’t break tradition.” The two old ladies would say anything to see their great–grandchildren. Cornelia didn’t want them to know that she and Marcus hadn’t been intimate yet, and she didn’t want to disappoint them either, so she chose to accept their decision, “Alright, I’ll listen to you, Granny. Let’s go have some juice now.”
• The two old ladies let out a sigh of relief. “Good.” Over their sweet drinks, the two old ladies exchanged another look. This time, Granny Rebecca was the one to speak up, “Nelly, if there’s anything you don’t understand or anything you’re scared of. You can talk to us, we have more life experience than you, and we Cornelia fell silent. What Granny said was very tactful, but she actually understood it. It must have been Abigail’s influence. She always whispered inappropriate things in Cornelia’s ear, making her thoughts impure. She could even understand these kinds of things. Cornelia didn’t say anything, and the two grandmothers assumed she was shy. Granny Luisa said, “Nelly, we’re just asking casually, if you’re shy and don’t want to talk about it, that’s fine. Just pretend we didn’t ask anything.” Granny Rebecca echoed, “Yes, we’re just asking, no other intentions.” Cornelia drank a few sips of her coffee and looked up at the two old ladies. “Ladies, the younger generation is quite different from your time, and we might understand things more deeply than you imagine. Even if we haven’t experienced them, we definitely have an idea.” Cornelia’s blunt words somewhat stunned the two old ladies, they both asked almost simultaneously, “Where did you learn about this?”
