Chapter 163 Geoffrey’s Majestic Moment

Clark was stunned by the words, but said nothing. After all, marriage was a matter beyond his control.

Prudence, too, remained silent.

Technically, Clark was Prudence’s grandson, and if Braden had a better future, she would have hoped for balance in the best for Clark as well. But with Braden languishing in prison, it was hard for her to find any her emotions.

Moreover, whether for noble families or common folk, it was always the legitimate heirs who received the most support. It was rare for a bastard to overshadow a legitimate son.

What’s more, everyone in the family knew that Clark was Geoffrey’s godson, and Clark’s success was, in truth. Geoffrey’s success.

Hearing Priscilla’s words, Rosemary spoke lightly, “If the engagement has truly been set, I cannot intervene, I would never steal someone else’s betrothed.

Prudence and Priscilla both breathed a sigh of relief.

But as Prudence sighed in relief, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret. Being with Johnathan was something Vance could never have dreamed of. If only Johnathan had set his sights on Braden–how much better that would have been..

Ah, but alas, bastards–children born to those charming women–had no true hearts. If they could be suppressed, they should be. If not, they would grow up to be arrogant and turn on their own kin.

She had to stop this. She couldn’t let another mistake happen.

Clark, however, was completely confused. What was all this talk about stealing someone’s fiancé? Why had Johnathan and Rosemary come here in the first place?

Prudence finally spoke, “We are grateful that Rosemary holds Clark in such high regard. This is truly his good fortune. But given that he is already promised to another, it seems that Clark is not worthy of such an honor.”

Johnathan looked at Prudence, his gaze calm but piercing. “It’s not that my daughter is unworthy. In truth, I really admire Clark. If he is already engaged, then you may go to the Queen Mother’s palace and ask for her blessing, giving Clark an honorary marriage proposal.”

Prudence forced a smile. “That won’t be necessary. The engagement has already been settled. How could we trouble the Queen Mother to bless it again?”

Rosemary stood up, a cold smile on her face. “Don’t be so polite. Tomorrow, I’ll go to the palace to request the Queen Mother’s decree. You’d better produce an unmarried Fiona, or else it will be seen as treason.”
