บท 224: Rejected

"You don't have to be so pitiful, son. Let's deal with this once and for all," Rose said.

Nobody would understand what she was trying to do yet, but she wanted to be cleared on Trents account so that when she starts pushing for Jace, Trent wouldn't say she had betrayed him."

"Rose?"

"I know what I'm doing Richard," Rose said with a pleading gaze at her husband. "This has to be settled once and for all and the only way is for Grace to directly accept Trent or reject him in the presence of all of us."

Richard shrugged, seeing that his wife's mind was made up.

Now all eyes were turned to Grace to hear what she had to say. 

Although Jace knew Grace would never agree to be with Trent, he couldn't completely rule out the fact that he was yet to give her the full commitment she deserved and here was Trent ready to do that with him directly proposing to her.

What if she took Trent seriously believing that he didn't want a one off fling with her?
