Patricia and Erin didn't expect that Beck could so firmly and directly reject Linda right in front of them, although he had always seemed polite and respectful toward them.
Naturally, Patricia still hoped that Linda and Beck could end up together.
She smiled and tried to ease the tension, leaving room for the situation to be salvaged.
"This is indeed Linda's fault. We'll talk to her properly later. Sorry for disturbing your meeting. How about I have Wynn bring Linda over another day so she can apologize to you properly—"
"There's no need for that," Beck interrupted, clearly seeing through her intentions. "When it comes to matters of the heart..."
He paused for a moment, glancing subtly at Celeste before continuing after half a second, "...They can't be forced. Ms. Shaw and I are not suitable for each other. I hope you can help persuade her—not to waste her time and future over me."
With those words, what was left for Patricia not to understand?
She looked at Celeste, who had remained detached the entire time, calmly sipping her tea, and couldn't help but feel that Celeste was silently laughing at the Shaw family's humiliation.
Her smile grew a bit stiff. She forced a dry laugh and said, "You're right. I'll talk to Linda properly."
"Thank you, Madam Shaw," Beck responded politely.
Linda had already fled in humiliation long ago.
Once Patricia and Erin left and the door was closed again, Beck sat back down and said to Celeste, "Sorry for taking up your time."
Ever since he realized Linda had feelings for him, he had always made his rejection clear. But Linda had shown no sign of backing off.
He had tried to find opportunities to speak to her directly, but each time, before he could say anything, she would pretend not to understand and run off.
Today, he finally had a chance to meet with Celeste one-on-one, and he didn't want to waste time dealing with Linda's drama.
Linda's lack of restraint and willful ignorance had finally worn down his patience.


And perhaps Beck had sensed that, which was why he had said it so plainly.
That was exactly Beck's intention.
Still, even though she had let go of the past, hearing someone bring it up again inevitably stirred some unpleasant memories.
So, he couldn't help but want to apologize.
Celeste didn't want to dwell on the past and changed the subject.

This book needs to be ignored for 2 weeks in order to get something out of it when you read. The chapters are too short and you come out with nothing when reading one chapter. If this book wasn't so nice and I wasn't so far with it, I would have quit reading....
