Chương 24: Deal

The moment Stefan and Ruby got to a private area, Stefan stopped walking, "Ruby…."

"Just listen to me, Stef," Ruby said before he could say anything and Stefan glared at her.

"You better make whatever you're going to say good," he warned.

"You know our parents. We both know them. We can refuse to be with each other, but do you think they will stop? They will easily set us up with someone else…."

"Then let them do that! Let them do it and I will keep rejecting each and every one they bring to me until I wear them out, and they realize I am not changing my mind. My parents won't choose my wife!" Stefan said harshly.

"Wouldn't it be best to let them think they've won this one? I would rather be married to you than…."

"For Christ's sake, Rub! Don't even think of it. How can you imagine us getting married? The both of us?" Stefan asked with a look of disgust.
