After a moment's silence, Rosalie finally said, "I can't guarantee anything, but I'll ask."

"In that case, Ms. Young, I can't guarantee anything too. It seems we both need to work harder on this. I have something else to attend to, and I need to go. I hope to receive good news from you." With that, Geoffrey hung up.

Geoffrey was way too vicious! How could he bear to do this and use Sebastian as leverage when Sebastian was his biological son?
