Chapter 21: Shocking turns and turns

Rose watched everyone's reactions. Most looked happy, but one person was sadder than her.

Claudia.

She looked like she lost her soul.

Rose found that most other girls were envious or jealous. June looked shocked.

She then turned to look at Asher. He stood there stoic, not realizing the effect his words or his presence could have.

Rose wanted to know if he really thought so.

She was his bodyguard. If this was what he wanted, she would make it happen. Even if she didn't like it.

There, she said it. She didn't want him to marry Mimi.

But if he was coerced, she would wreak havoc.

Rose stepped out of the room and activated the time spell.

Her trusty wand appeared in her hand and she waved it. Snowflakes appeared from its end and the time became still.

She walked towards Asher and noticed his appearance. He was in the middle of turning towards her and his questioning appearance tugged at her heartstrings.
