Mandy’s eyes darted straight to Rosie. Alfie was about to speak up and take the blame, so Rosie wouldn’t be misunderstood or go through any trouble. But before he could say anything, Rosie stepped forward.
“Mom, I don’t like Alfie. I don’t want to get engaged to him. He keeps following me around. I just wanted somewhere quiet to tell him to leave me alone for good.”
The entire garden seemed to freeze. Everyone who knew the situation had heard about Alfie and Rosie’s supposed engagement. For Rosie to say something like that, right in front of everyone, was a huge blow to the Goss family’s reputation.
As soon as the words left Rosie’s mouth, Alfie’s mom, Tara, looked like she could explode. To be honest, Tara had never really liked the idea of Rosie as her daughter-in-law. Rosie didn’t bring much to the table herself; she only had Jackson backing her up. If not for the Hydes family, Tara never would have stopped her son from going after Rosie.
Mandy couldn’t believe how reckless Rosie was being, blurting this out in front of so many people, even Alfie’s mom. She was practically making enemies for the Gibson family.
“Rosie, what are you talking about? Are you and Alfie just having a little fight? You’re just upset, right?” Mandy tried to smooth things over.
Nathaniel let out a sarcastic sigh. “Women are impossible. Just now she was all sweet with Alfie, and now she’s pretending she never liked him. Guess she’s worried about her reputation. Poor Alfie, wasting his feelings on her.”
“Nathaniel! What is your problem? I don’t like him, okay? Why would I be all sweet with him? I’d rather stay single forever than marry him!”
Rosie was so angry she could barely talk. She yelled, then covered her mouth and ran out of the room.

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
