"Even if I told you, you wouldn''t know. Anyway, we''ll be away for about a month. During that time, Sebastian and Rose will handle the family affairs," Geoffrey said.
For Sebastian, it was somewhat of a relief that his parents would be away for a while. "Alright, I understand. I''ll take care of thepany and family affairs."Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.
Geoffrey responded, “Good. Since your mother and I will be on vacation and there will be no one at home, you and Rose should stay here for now."
Sebastian was afraid Rosalie might feel ufortable staying in his parents'' house, so he said, "Dad, since Rose and I are married, I n to buy a new house. So I think..."
"We''re not stopping you from buying one," Geoffrey said. "It''s just that while your mother and I are away, you two can stay here temporarily. You can buy your own ce, and after your mother and I return, you can move out. I know you don''t want to live with us."
"This..." Sebastian still wanted to refuse, but Rosalie noticed that Geoffrey seemed displeased. It was clear Geoffrey had made a concession, and living together for now was eptable.
So, she gently tugged on Sebastian''s sleeve and said to Geoffrey, "Okay, Mr. Carter. Sebastian and I will stay here while you''re away."
Geoffrey smiled, looking much kinder. "You still call me Mr. Carter. You should call us Geoffrey and X now."
Rosalie forced a smile, and said, "Geoffrey, X.”
Geoffrey nodded, satisfied. "You''re very smart, and you can help Sebastian. Most importantly, he''s happy with you and won''tin about me being too domineering."
Rosalie responded, "I''ll do my best to help Seb."
Geoffrey turned to X. "X, this is your daughter-inw. Don''t you have anything to say?"
X preferred to be invisible, but she was brought into the conversation once again. She smiled and said, "Rose, I don''t know much about you, but since Sebastian likes you, there must be a reason. I wish you both happiness."
"Thank you, X."
Rosalie''s heart raced at hearing "Sebastian likes you." Fortunately, it was a fake marriage. What they had was just friendship.
After lunch, Geoffrey called Sebastian to his study. They talked privately for over an hour before Sebastian came out.
Rosalie was anxious, worried that Geoffrey might be giving Sebastian a hard time.
When Sebastian finally came out, Rosalie hurriedly asked, "Seb, are you okay?"
"Of course he''s fine," Geoffrey''s voice came from behind. He walked out and said, “He just got married, and is very happy. What are you worried about? That I''m going to eat him?"
Rosalie smiled awkwardly. "I didn''t mean that."
"Alright. I know you didn''t mean it." Geoffrey wasn''t trying to make things difficult for her. "It''s natural to be concerned about your husband after just getting married. If you weren''t worried, it would be suspicious."
Rosalie felt a bit guilty. The thing she feared most was Geoffrey getting suspicious. She even thought that Geoffrey might already have some doubts but seeing that Rosalie and Sebastian were genuinely married, he chose to overlook it.
After all, if Sebastian married Tammy, their marriage would likely be just as insincere and driven by interests. “Sebastian will take you out to buy some jewelry and essories. As a husband, he should show his appreciation." Rosalie smiled. "No need for that. I''m not very concerned about material things."
"You may not care, but the family does," Geoffrey said. "Now that you''re our daughter-inw, you can''t look shabby. You need to present yourself well. And you just got married, so it''s perfectly fine for your husband to go shopping with you and buy you some luxury items."
Rosalie couldn''t argue with what Geoffrey said.
Even Sebastian said, "Rose, let''s go. Since we don''t have much to do this afternoon, I''ll take you shopping for some things you like." Rosalie nodded. "Okay."
Noticing that Rosalie seemed ufortable, Sebastian suggested, "Let''s bring Yvonne along. The three of us can go together."
As soon as Sebastian finished speaking, Yvonne ran over. "Great! Let''s go together! But Seb, you also have to buy me something." Sebastian shook his head helplessly. “Fine, I''ll buy you something too."
