"Mom did you speak with father today?"

"What did he said mom?, did he agreed with your request?"

Lily replies to Her daughter with the sad look on her face, "No darling!, he didn't agree with me today"

"But why mom why is he keeping forcing me to marry someone who I'm not in love with"

"I know what your father is doing to you is completely wrong but what else we can do he has finally made his final decision and there is nothing else that is going to change him"

Jade replies to her mother while dropping tears on her face, "But mom I don't want to marry Henry"

Lily replies to Jade, "I know sweetheart but you got no choice but to do what your father has recommended to you"

Jade stands up from her bed with so much anger and then replies to her mother while raising her voice, "No mom this time I'm not going to obey my father's wishes anymore and after I complete high school I will marry someone whom I love and not Henry"

Lily looks at her daughter and then ask her a question, "Jade darling can I ask you a question?"

"Yes mom what is it?"

"Do you have a boyfriend at school?"

Jade replies to Lily while pretending, "No mom, why are you asking me that question?"

"Jade just tell me the truth, do you have a boyfriend at school?"

Jade replies to Lily, "Yes mom I have a boyfriend at school and he is the lover of my life and I would love to spend my entire life with him by my side and nobody else"

"What is his name?"

Jade replies to Emily, "His name is Justin mom"

"Okay does your boyfriend come from a rich family?"

"No mom, He is from poor family"

"Listen Jade the only thing that I'm advising you is it's better break up with him before you end up hurting his feelings at the end"

Jade replies to Lily with the confused look on her face, "But mom why are you saying that to me"

"Darling I'm telling you this because I know Leonard quite well and when Leonard wants something he will fight with it until he gets it, If you will not break up with him right now at the end he will end up filling bad about your father's decision on marrying Henry"

Jade replies to Emily with the fierce look on her face, "Thanks mom but a big No you, I'm not going to do what you are telling me to do ever"

"Okay what are you going to do else to in order to prevent this from happening to you darling, tell me?"

"But you have forgot something darling"

"I think you know your father is a powerful man in this country and he will search for you and your boyfriends in every corner of the world until he finds you wherever you are hiding, don't you think you will be putting your boyfriend and his family in danger too"

Jade runs out of the answers and then looks at her mother without replying to her while about her mother's words, Lily then stands up from Jade's bed and says lasts words to her,

"Listen darling you better do what I have told you to do before it is to late and don't ever think on doing something stupid because you will end up causing more problems to your boyfriend and to you at the end of the day, Just think about it through okay?"
