Donald felt a twinge of annoyance at the unexpected response he received.


    He had anticipated that Lord Moore would quickly ept his marriage proposal and wee his son into the family as their future son-inw.


    To his dismay, Lord Moore had repeatedly turned down his proposal!


    Donald was overwhelmed with feelings of humiliation and confusion.


    Sean, equally frustrated, eximed, “Lord Moore, why do you refuse to let Jasmine marry me? Our Webb family is the foremost family in the South Region. Who in this country can im to be better than me, Sean Webb?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    With a gentle smile, Lord Moore replied, “Young Master Webb, you are indeed a remarkable gentleman. However, you cannot force emotions to blossom. You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink.”


    Lord Moore found it challenging to be too harsh on Donald and Sean, who seemed oblivious to the deeper issues at y. So, he opted to speak indirectly to encourage them to reconsider their approach.


    Sean scoffed in irritation, feeling upset and restless.


    He had hoped the meeting would go smoothly, but instead, it felt like an uphill battle.


    As he sulked in frustration, Reuben walked in.


    Upon seeing Donald and Sean in the living room, Reuben rushed forward and greeted them politely, “Hello, Uncle Webb, Sean! What a surprise! What brings you to our home?”<fn56e7> ?? ??? ???? ?? ???? ???? ???????s, ????s? ??s?? F?nd-Novel</fn56e7>


    Donald smiled warmly and replied, “Hi, Reuben. I just sent Kian back to Sudbury this morning. Sean and I n to stay in Aurous Hill for a while to uncover the truth behind Kian’s illness. We’d like to visit your grandfather and stay here for a few days.”


    He then added, “By the way, do you think my son, Sean, and your cousin, Jasmine, would make a great couple?”


    Reuben eximed enthusiastically, “Absolutely! They are a perfect match!”


    Donald nodded in satisfaction, turning to Lord Moore, saying, “Uncle Moore, did you hear that? Even Reuben agrees. I bet if you asked any family in the South Region, they would say the same!”


    Lord Moore pursed his lips, feeling somewhat embarrassed.


    Reuben eagerly chimed in, “Grandpa, I truly believe Sean and Jasmine would be a fantastic couple. Their marriage would create a powerful alliance between our two families!”


    Reuben was aware of his grandfather’s desire for Jasmine to be with Charlie, but he strongly opposed it, hoping to sway Lord Moore towards epting the Webb family’s proposal.


    Lord Moore was taken aback by Reuben’s unexpected alliance with the outsiders. Didn’t he realize that Lord Moore wanted Jasmine with Charlie?


    Deep down, Lord Moore recognized that Reuben understood his intentions, and he was disappointed that Reuben chose to side with the Webb family to prevent any connection between Jasmine and Charlie.


    As a man of considerable experience, Lord Moore could see through Reuben’s schemes.


    Clearing his throat, he said firmly, “Reuben, you are out of your depth when ites to persuading me about your cousin’s future.”


    Reuben’s heart raced in fear, and he quickly silenced himself, realizing he had upset his grandfather.


    At that moment, Oscar, the butler, entered from the main door and announced, “Master, Miss Jasmine has returned. She is in the garage now.”
