Keira hesitated before speaking. “Grandma, did you have someone help us get our marriage certificate

Keira became even more puzzled upon hearing this, but she didn’t ask any further and just listened to old

At the time, Keira really thought she’d encountered someone trying to provoke trouble and frowned, but then the old lady looked at her with bright eyes. “Good child, are you married?”
