My Wife Is My Life! novel Chapter 19

Vana, who was forcing herself to count the number of the birds and don't think of the man, shook her head. At this time, Clark's phone rang.

Soon, Clark gave up persuading her to drink and answered the phone. He even smiled at Vana subconsciously.

"Did you see the photo?", asked Clark.

Then he interrupted, "that's good. Don't ask. Just wait for a surprise from Grandpa. You will like it."

In the end, he was a little annoyed. "I told you not to ask. Why do you still ask? Do you know how to respect the elders? I've told you that grandpa won't do harm to you."

As soon as he hung up the phone, the corners of his mouth had been split to the back of his head.

"Aha, ha, ha, my in-laws, you see, we have had dinner and wine. Let's get down to business. It's about your granddaughter and my grandson's marriage!" When did they become in-laws? Was she drunk?

"Mr. Clark, I..." No, she couldn't marry a stranger.

"Don't interrupt elders." Edwin interrupted her and said with a smile to Clark, "you finally understand why I called you here today. Then let's go and play chess while talking."

Vana was thrown to the ground by the two men. She looked terrified. If she was not nervous, that's thinking highly of her psychological quality.

After all, it was her marriage. How could it be arranged so casually by her grandfather? Moreover, it was said that the fiance Cathy found for her was a dissolute addict. How could her grandfather sell her to such a person so easily?

For the whole afternoon, Vana had been resisting in a way of rolling her eyes, but after sending away Clark, the joy of Edwin hadn't faded away. With a face full of anger, Vana approached him and snorted, "Grandpa, is it because my parents have restricted you from spending money, so you have to use this way to squeeze out your granddaughter in order to exchange for your own interests?"

"Naughty girl, how could your grandpa be such a person?" Edwin said while slowly packing up the chessboard, without considering whether Vana was willing or not.

"Grandpa, I warn you, if you marry me to the man I have never seen before, I will... I'll go back to Eritrea and never come back!"

Vana's harsh resistance aroused the dissatisfaction of Edwin. The smile on his face froze, and finally he patiently taught her, "Vana, you can't even protect yourself in the Magic City now. Grandpa just wants to see your health and happiness in my life. Besides, your parents and I have seen the person you are going to marry, so we won't let you down. As for the love, you can slowly get along with each other, I believe that you two can be happy! Listen to me. I won't do harm to you."

Vana couldn't understand why all the adults liked to make decisions for them, saying that they were not doing harm to them. Wasn't this moral kidnapping enough to alert them? Whether it was her mother or grandfather, they would not stop until force the closest person to leave, would they?

"Grandpa, I know you want to make plans for my future, but I would rather not have such a relationship. Besides, you are 'kidnapping' me depending on the status that you are my grandfather. If even you are cruel to me, I would rather not be a member of the Gu Family." Vana bit her lips so hard that they turned pale. She didn't want to say these words to her grandfather, but she really couldn't accept it if she had to lose the only she had.

"Nonsense! Don't be so arrogant in front of me. I tell you, as long as I say it' OK, it will be OK. No matter you accept or not, I will try to print your names on the same marriage certificate. It's not up to you."

Vana didn't want to listen to such suffocating words any more. She said to her grandfather ferociously, "in that case, I have nothing to say." then she turned around and left.

No matter how Edwin called her and threatened her that he would show her the final marriage certificate so that she didn't have to pretend to be strong, Vana left all these behind her.
