He was certain that she would have agreed to his proposal if they hadn’t been spied on. Unfortunately, he didn’t get to ask her any more questions after they found out someone was monitoring them. I’m sure she would have said yes, he thought. He had intended to settle things a little earlier, but he had some urgent matters to deal with that night, and he was kept busy until dawn the next day.

Since James happened to ask about Keith’s marriage, Keith figured that it was the right time to bring this up. There was only one woman he wanted to marry—Alice! “Really? Are you really willing to get married?” Lindsay’s face lit up with joy when she heard that her son wanted to get married.

“Hmph. That sounds more like it. You should tame yourself a little and focus on building a career.” James was visibly calmer than before, and he no longer spoke in a harsh tone. “Which Woland Family are you referring to, Keith?” Lindsay had been too excited earlier, so she took a while to really process what her son had said. She wanted to clarify things so that she could approach the right people to propose marriage.

“I’m sure you guys have heard of Woland Group, right?” This was one of those rare situations where Keith was in a good mood, and his response was serious this time. “Are you talking about the Woland Family who own the Woland Group? I’ve heard of them, of course.” Lindsay beamed. “They seem like they’d be a pretty good match for our family. That’s good.”

Woland Group was considerably influential in Rodcaster, and their company had expanded in the past few years, so Lindsay knew about them. “Emma is part of the Woland Family. Although they only brought her back into the family a few years ago, she has a pretty good reputation. She’s elegant, gentle, and she has both the looks and the talents.” Naturally, Lindsay assumed that Keith was interested in Emma. There were only two girls in the Woland Family—Emma and Alice. Lindsay assumed that it was Emma since Alice was off the market.

“When did I ever say that I was interested in that disgusting woman?” Keith’s gaze darkened as a look of disdain surfaced on his face. He would never want to marry someone as pretentious as Emma. Even though he had only met her once during the dinner party, it wasn’t hard for him to tell what she was like as a person.

“Weren’t you referring to Emma? Who else would you be interested in, then? The Woland Family only has…” Lindsay’s gaze widened as she exclaimed in shock, “Are you interested in Alice?”

Lindsay felt sorry for herself. Her son’s marriage was no small issue, and she didn’t want to be careless with it. “What is there to research? You should just approach them since Keith is interested in the woman. I want you to go! Right now!” James was stern as he urged Lindsay to go to
