Kapitel 52: James Staking His Claim...

After James left to study at Royal Academy, Ashton had a long conversation with his parents about James and Ava. He informed his parents that he met Ava during the concert and was curious about her. Tanaga liked what he heard but didn't show it to his wife and son.

Ashton vaguely remembered the incident many years ago. However, the only thing he could remember was when their father scolded James for what he had said to Ava that made the poor girl cry her heart out. It was the day after they came back from the Philippines to visit the Go family.

Since that day, it had become a taboo topic inside their household. They never mentioned the betrothal ever again.

"Jeff and I have decided to let fate decide if our family will be one. So we decided to put aside the betrothal until Ava finishes her college education, whenever that may be. However, that's not saying that we will not get involved if she decides to marry someone else." Tanaga said seriously.
