Savage Love On His Wheelchair novel Chapter 6

“You married into The Grant family!” said The Old Mrs. Grant. Seeing Rosemary’s confusion, she explained, “The Grant family had only one boy per generation. You should also know that I have a grandson who was in a car accident two years ago and is still in a vegetative state. But rest assured, when you marry him, he will surely wake up!”

As soon as The Old Mrs. Grant finished, Rosemary said with a slight frown: “But I…” She didn’t say she wouldn’t. Rosemary said euphemistically said, “It’s happened so suddenly and I haven’t decided yet!”

Laurie looked at her and smiled, “Rosemary, The Grant family is a big family. And The Old Mrs. Grant herself proposed the marriage. You’ll be lucky to marry Mr. Grant.”

Lucky?

Rosemary’s eyes fell on Laurie with a smile on her face. Now she wanted to stand up and ask Laurie if it was really that lucky, why didn’t you ask your daughter to marry him?

But she didn’t, because she saw the helplessness and heartache in Andrew Harris’ eyes.

Perhaps they had already decided everything, and she was only the last to know.

Thinking of John Sawyer and Daisy, Rosemary took a deep breath and said, “Okay, I will marry him!”

All eyes were on Rosemary. The Old Mrs. Grant patted Rosemary's hand and took out a box from her bag. She opened it in the amazed eyes of all.

It was a jade bracelet, shiny and moist, as pure white as suet.

“This is a fine white jade!” Laurie said with a flicker of jealousy in her eyes. Looking at Rosemary, she said, “Look how good The Old Mrs. Grant has been to you.”

“Rosemary, come on, put it on!” The Old Mrs. Grant put on the jade bracelet for Rosemary and nodded with satisfaction, “It’s beautiful!”

“It’s mom’s favorite piece of jewelry, and Rosemary’s very lucky.” Mrs. Grant said. The Old Mrs. Grant put down Rosemary’s hand and said, “This is done. After a few days, we’ll send someone to propose. October 9th is a good day. Let’s have the wedding that day!”

Although it seemed that The Old Mrs. Grant’s words were very careless, Rosemary knew that they had already set a date to come.

At The end of her words, they all stood up, exchanged a few words, and The Old Mrs. Grant was helped away by Mrs. Grant.

Mr. Grant also said a few words to Andrew Harris, nodded, looked deeply at Rosemary, and then turned to leave.

The whole hall was quiet again. Laurie looked back at Rosemary with a cold smile and said, “I can’t believe you’re so lucky. You’re going to marry into The Grant family and become young Mrs. Grant!”

“If you think it’s a lucky thing, you can let Daisy marry him. I’m willing to step aside.” Rosemary looked at Laurie and said calmly.

“You…” Laurie wanted to say something more, but when she saw Andrew Harris coming back, she stopped and went upstairs.

“Rosemary…” Andrew Harris looked at Rosemary, tried to say something but couldn’t. He looked at her guiltily.

“Dad, you don’t have to say it. I know what you’re trying to say. I did it of my own free will. Besides, The Grant family is famous in Cornshire, and I will not suffer any loss if I marry him!”

Andrew Harris gave Rosemary a complicated look and said, “I didn’t know they were coming. And the company has been having a tough time lately…” Andrew Harris rubbed his hands, feeling even more guilty.
