Yuliana could see that Madam Quartley was very fond of Rorita. She then immediately said, "Of course Madam Quartley. I had issues with Yesseca because she was a country bumpkin. We just couldn't see eye to eye."
"Rorita is the daughter of an important minister. She and I will definitely get along."
Madam Quartley was relieved to hear Yuliana say this.
She smiled and said, "That's good. I hope that everyone in the Quartley Palace can get along nicely."
The entire Cowell family knew what Tremaine was offering.
Everyone in the Cowell family was extremely happy.
Rorita marrying Tremaine would be a great honor to them after all.
It would forever solidify their family's status in Nashaland.
Rorita's parents, as well as all of their relatives told Rorita to appease Tremaine and make him
happy with her.
None of them asked Rorita if she had wanted to marry Tremaine.
They had all assumed that Rorita obviously wanted to marry him. There was no need to even ask her.
The president was very handsome and powerful after all. Of course she wanted to marry him!
Among all of them, only Weverly told her to carefully consider his proposal.
If she didn't want to marry Tremaine, she only needed to tell him. He wouldn't make a fuss about it.
"Sister, your happiness is much more important compared to the status of glory of the family." Weverly explained.
A week later, Rorita told Weverly her answer.
She was going to marry Tremaine, even though he loved another woman.
Rorita said, "Sister, I've thought about it all week. I'm very certain that I will never meet another man who is as amazing as the president. There won't ever be another man who can touch my heart like he can." "When I first met him when I was fourteen, I knew that I would never meet another man as amazing as him. I didn't even dare to think about him. But now he is offering to marry me, so of course I'm going to accept it. I'm not going to throw this opportunity away."
"I think, instead of hoping to be in love with someone else, I'd rather marry the man I adore. That's why I want to marry the president. Even though I'll be lonely, at least when I see him, I'll be happy."
Weverly was quiet.
She knew that despite her sister's meek frame, she was very strong headed.
What's more, she had taken a whole week to consider this.
Rorita had made up her mind.
Weverly still respected Rorita. She said, "Rorita, since you've already made your decision, I won't speak of it anymore. I give you my blessing and more. Besides, this marriage might not be so bad after all."
"After all, love is a fleeting thing. Who knows, overtime you might eventually replace the woman he has in his heart."
Weverly's hopeful idea cheered Rorita up.
She had been hesitating and struggling the whole week.
Now that she had made up her mind, she finally felt relieved.
She said, "Oh sister, that would be amazing. Even if he will never love me back for the rest of my life, just being with him makes me happy."
Weverly sighed, seeing how infatuated her sister was.
She had only caught a glimpse of him when she was fourteen, yet he had completely captivated her.
And for all these years, she had never forgotten him.
This was why her sister was willing to marry him even though he didn't love her. She would only serve to be his puppet wife, she agreed without hesitating.
"My sister is so silly."
