Seeing how determined Aella’s parents were, Virginia finally gave in. “One year. Just one year.
“If Aella still wants to end it after a year, we won’t interfere.”
After hesitating for a long time, Warren finally nodded. “Deal.”
Miriam shot him an angry look and turned away without another word.

Once inside the car, she snapped, “We agreed to cancel it today. Why did you suddenly change your mind and agree to delay it?”
Warren explained patiently, “Aella and Tyrone grew up together. Tyrone grew up right in front of us. When have you ever seen him argue with Aella?”
Hearing that, Miriam hesitated. “But Aella said Tyrone’s ex-”
Warren sighed. “Let them cool off for now. If Aella still wants to end it later, we’ll respect her choice.
“And Tyrone did save our family. Since Ralph brought it up, we couldn’t turn him down completely.”
About ten minutes later, in the Winters‘ living room.
Virginia called Brad.
Ralph asked quietly, “Weren’t you always against using past favors as leverage? You made me say those things. What will they think of me now?”
Virginia rolled her eyes. “You’re already old. As long as our son ends up happy, does it really matter what others think of you?”
He fell silent.
At that moment, Brad walked in. “Virginia, were you looking for me?”
Virginia gestured for him to sit. “Brad, do you know what happened between Tyrone and Aella? Why are they canceling the engagement?”
Brad blinked. “Wait–they’re really breaking it off?”
Ralph frowned. “Brad, what’s going on?”
Brad hesitated, then said, “Relax. Tyrone got extremely nervous before the engagement. It’s pre–wedding anxiety.
“He doesn’t actually want to cancel it. He’s just worried Aella is too young and might regret it later. He cares about her too much. He told me himself.”
Edwin snorted. “Useless.”
Virginia finally let out a breath. “An illness is fine–as long as it’s not bad character.”
Ralph said nothing.

After Brad left, Virginia stood up.
“We should visit the Reids again and explain everything,” she said.
Edwin said arrogantly, “This could be solved with one phone call. There’s no need to go in person.

“Even if the Reids hadn’t gone bankrupt, they’d still only be a third–rate wealthy family in Vleka. They’re already climbing higher by marrying their daughter to Tyrone!”
Virginia snapped back, furious, “If you don’t like how I handle things, go back to Mudrus right now and stay with your daughter!”
With that, she turned and went to her room to change.
Angrily, Edwin slammed his cane onto the floor.
Ralph said helplessly, “Dad, you know I barely have any say in this house anymore. Please stop provoking her. Why did you have to say that?”
He hurried after Virginia.
Edwin’s face turned red as he shouted, “Letting a woman run the house leads to ruin! How did I end up with such a useless son?”
That night, Aella returned from school.
Warren and Miriam immediately told her the reason Tyrone gave for canceling the engagement.
Miriam said, “Aella, they said Tyrone has pre–wedding anxiety. Maybe he was just too worried about you.”
Aella froze.
She hadn’t expected that to be the reason.
The heavy sadness in her chest eased a little.
She looked down at the diamond ring on her finger.
After a brief hesitation, she said, “Dad, Mom, even so, I still won’t forgive him.”
