Raiden raised his hand and stopped Justin. “I understand your intention. It looks like Bailey has already met you. Fine, then. The Fletcher family won't force you. Take a trip to Jadeborough and explain to my father personally. I agree with you two breaking off the engagement.”

Justin hesitated briefly before he asked tentatively, “How are you planning to break the news to Scarlett?”
