Hearing the last two words, Rosalie immediately understood what Yvonne meant. She couldn't even bear to imagine the scene, and shuddered. "We have to save Seb. Is your father insane? Even if he wants a marriage of convenience for your brother, he should find someone normal!"

"My dad doesn't care about that. He'll take whoever benefits him, regardless of their character. Not only is the Jones family wealthy, but they also have powerful backers. My father values power," Yvonne said. Rosalie huffed angrily. "In his eyes, power is more important than his own son!"

Seeing Rosalie a bit out of breath, Yvonne put her arm around her shoulder. "Let me take you outside to get some fresh air."

She then led Rosalie out of the club. The air outside was much better, and Rosalie took deep breaths. She had felt so suffocated inside.

"I'm sorry, Rose. I shouldn't have brought you here today. It must have scared you," Yvonne said.

"It's okay. Thank you for bringing me here. If you didn't, I could have only watched as Seb got married."

"But how can we stop it? My brother certainly doesn't want to marry her, but..." Yvonne said, confused. She sighed. "You know my father. He doesn't care about any of that."

Rosalie thought about what Geoffrey had said to her before-that he approved of her as Sebastian's partner.

"Rose? What's wrong?" Seeing Rosalie lost in thought, Yvonne was a bit worried, and held her arm. "Don't worry. No matter what, as long as my brother's status and position are secure, he won't be kicked out of the family. In life, you can't have both career and happiness. You have to give up one."
