Jasper glanced at Winona, his expression serious. "We've known each other for years. Of course, your mom's going to be suspicious. Maybe I didn't do enough today to convince her I'm serious. That might be why she reacted the way she did."Jasper had never been the type to give up easily, especially when this arrangement affected Winona's reputation and her freedom.Winona felt a strange mix of guilt and gratitude, along with a faint flutter she couldn't quite explain. She looked at Jasper as he focused on the road and suddenly thought that this impulsive engagement might not be such a bad idea after all.Jasper's voice broke the silence. "By the way, I'm going to talk to my parents tonight."Winona turned to him. "About what?""Setting up a formal meeting with your family to talk about the engagement."His tone stayed calm.Winona stared at him, stunned. It took her a second to find her voice. "Wait... You're serious? I thought we agreed this was just to get our families off

Jasper could tell where the conversation was headed, so he kept a polite smile and waited for Nella to continue."But I still don't think you and Winnie are a good match," Nella went on. "You've been friends for years. You know each other too well, including all the good and bad. That's fine for friendship, but marriage is different."Winona opened her mouth to argue, but one look from her mother stopped her."I'm a little tired. I think I'm going to lie down." Nella set down her coffee cup and stood. Her tone had cooled considerably. "You two can keep talking. I'm going upstairs."The message was obvious. She wanted Jasper to leave.Winona's expression darkened as she watched her mother walk away.Jasper stayed calm. He gave the back of Winona's hand a light pat, silently telling her not to get upset."It's alright. If your mother's tired, she should get some rest."Jasper stood and gave Philip a polite nod. "Mr. Farrell, we won't keep you any longer. We'll come another day.

Amelia pressed her lips together, her expression turning serious. "If you've both really thought this through, then I support you."She had always thought Jasper was kind and dependable, and Winona was easygoing and sensible. If the two of them ever did end up together for real, she thought they would actually make a good couple.Winona laughed. "Don't read too much into it. We're just helping each other get our families off our backs. It's temporary."She picked up her coffee and took a sip. "Once things die down, we'll have a nice, clean breakup.""Jasper's a good guy," Amelia stated seriously. "We've known him for years. You know what he's like. He's reliable, responsible, and he always shows up when his friends need him. Maybe you should actually think about it."Winona nearly spit out her coffee. She quickly set the cup down. "Don't even start. Jasper and I have been bickering and messing with each other since we were kids. At this point, he's basically one of the guys. The

Winona raised a brow, a teasing smile playing at her lips. "What, are you worried I'll get the wrong idea and think you have feelings for me? Is that why you're setting the rules now?"She knew Jasper was a gentleman, but she couldn't resist giving him a hard time.Jasper smiled. "Are you trying to take it the wrong way?"Then he added, "I can't have everyone thinking you're my fiancée and then not act like one. You deserve the same respect and consideration I'd give a real fiancée. That's the least I can do."He knew the engagement was only temporary, but he still had to think about Winona's reputation.If they were going to pretend, he wouldn't let the arrangement put her in an awkward position. That was where he drew the line, both as her fake fiancé and as her friend.Winona stopped teasing and nodded. "Alright. I'm in."She trusted Jasper to know where the boundaries were. Whatever he did, he would be thoughtful about it and never make her uncomfortable.After a moment, sh

Winona continued, "Besides, we already know each other. Neither of us would have to pretend to get along with some stranger. Sounds pretty convenient to me."Jasper looked at her, the amusement in his eyes slowly deepening.He knew she was probably joking, but he had to admit the idea was tempting.At the very least, it would get his family off his back and give him something else to focus on besides Amelia. Maybe it wouldn't be such a bad arrangement."Are you serious?"He studied her, trying to tell whether she meant it.Winona's heart started beating faster. She looked away and kept her tone deliberately casual. "Of course, I'm joking. Like I'd actually marry you."Even so, the strange feeling in her chest didn't go away.Jasper didn't press her. He picked up the glass on his desk and took a sip. "You don't have to force yourself into anything. If you really don't want an arranged marriage, maybe you could try talking to your family.""Talking?" Winona shook her head. "

Winona paused, surprised to see Jasper there.She walked over and knocked lightly on the office door.Jasper looked up. Surprise flashed across his face when he saw her, followed by a faint smile. "Ms. Reid. What brings you here this late? Are you checking up on us?"Winona walked over to his desk and pulled out a chair. She glanced at the data running across his screen. "What are you doing here this late? Bad mood?"She asked without bothering to dance around it.Jasper paused, then quickly recovered and closed the program he was running. He looked at her with a hint of amusement. "Do I really look that fragile?"He lost a relationship that never really stood much of a chance. It hurt, but not enough to send him hiding at the office nursing a broken heart.Winona shrugged. "Who knows?"Jasper leaned back slightly. "You catch me working late once, and suddenly you think you've got me all figured out?"Jasper let out a helpless laugh, though there wasn't much humor in it. "

A small smile crept up Amelia's lips. "You don't even have time to pack your bags."Amelia knew that Winona would always doll up and take a long time to get ready before heading out. According to Winona, looking presentable was only basic for a rich heiress like her."What do I need?" Winona sai

Nicole's heart sank at her mom's words. She hadn't thought of that.For a wealthy and influential family like the Zephyrs, reputation was key.She had thought that she was seeking redress for the Zephyrs. However, she failed to see that they cared more about protecting their reputation.No man wo

Jasper's brows arched. "Is there no friendship between us? How heartbreaking."Winona held Amelia's arm. "Enough of that. Why are you competing for favor with us? Anyway, Mia, you looked awesome in the live broadcast!" After gushing, she glanced in Nicole's way. "I didn't catch a single glimp

Amelia might be the person-in-charge, but it wasn't ultimately her call. She didn't have the ultimate decision right."Yes," Nicole said with a nod.At the very least, Christopher was backing her up and giving her his full support. She didn't have anything to fear."Chris, I need to ask you somet
