"But you were going to reject it... What changed your mind..."

Max questioned Skyler as they drove back to their house. Roy was still in shock.

"You know me Max, there is no way that I can live with one woman, that too committed... Dad and mom won't allow me to that. I have to make a way out and Rosetta will be my way. She has same thinking like me. She has no expectations from this marriage so it isn't any problem. I would happily marry her instead of marrying some annoying bitch who has unrealistic expectations..."

Skyler replied.

"Don't tell me she made her impression on you"

Roy Scowled.

"I can't say I am impressed but she is interesting... And it doesn't really matter. This marriage doesn't mean anything..."

Skyler trailed off.

On other hand Rosetta informed Damian that she is ready for marriage. They were in his office.

"Are you sure Rosa?... I don't want you to take any kind of pressure. It's a big decision. If you are really ready then only I will take things further... Think one more time..."

Damian said in serious tone.

"You are more important to me than business..."

"It's fine dad... It won't be any problem... I am ready.."

She assured.

"I don't think I can ever find a guy for me... Skyler seemed nice and he was respectful in whole conversation. Our thinking is quite same so I think it's better to marry him..."

Damian sat beside her on the sofa and held her hands gently.

"Are you sure you don't want to experience love?... What if you fall for someone else?..."

He asked.

"I can't... I don't understand love... It's not my thing..."

She replied coldly.

Damian sighed.

"Rosa I know you want to become like your mother... She is your ideal, you want to become strong like her and that's why you are walking on her path. You have made yourself like her but She is not really cold. Rose have emotions, she cares, she feels, she loves us. Only difference is she doesn't know how to express it... You don't have to suppress your emotions to become strong."

"How do you know she loves you... How did you convinced her to marry you... Why you fell for such ruthless woman... What is love?"

She asked confused and Damian chuckled.

"You really don't need to know how I fell for her, how I married her or how I managed to get her... But she wasn't ruthless to me, she was my shield. She is only person with whom I feel safe. She was just like you and I fell for her cold behavior. You will understand it when love will grace your life... And When it will, don't run away from it, embrace it... I hope you will experience it soon..."

Damian patted her head and she nodded in understanding.

"And you met Skyler in these clothes?"

He raised his eyebrows and she nodded.

"And he still agreed to marry you?"

He asked and she nodded again.

"Impressive..."

He said looking at her dirty clothes and messy hair.

Meanwhile Skyler reached Home where Xavier was waiting for him.

Skyler entered the living room and saw Xavier.

"How was it?"

He asked.
