Chapter 44

Mrs. Zucker piped up with a smile, "She's probably going to ask you to hurry up and go over to finalize

the proposal."

Rosemi thought the same. She was in an excellent mood, so she decided to answer Charlotte's call

right in front of everyone, and she even put her phone on speaker mode.

"Mrs. Parker," Rosemi greeted with a smile. "Have you had your dinner?"

"Yes, I have. What about you, Mrs. Whittle?"

"Me too. I'm in the middle of a card game, actually. By the way, Mrs. Parker, has your family discussed

the matter I brought up to you this morning? Once you let me know, I'll be able to make all the

arrangements."

Charlotte laughed and said, "I'm so sorry, Mrs. Parker, but I was too busy today and forgot all about it. I

just recalled it a moment ago so I immediately decided to return your call. Adam says that Kendall just

returned to us, so he can't bear to part with her so soon. We've decided to put marriage aside for now."

Right from the start, Charlotte disapproved of Kendall marrying Jackson.

And after today, she was even more opposed to it.

Jackson was too fake.

"Mrs. Parker?"

Rosemi thought she heard it wrong.

The Parkers were declining their offer of marriage? Was Kendall not madly in love with Jackson after

falling in love at first sight with him?

"Mrs. Parker, have you asked your daughter's opinion? This is what you and your husband think, right?

You don't think that our family is as good as the Colemans."

Rosemi felt humiliated by the way her friends were looking at her.

She picked up the phone and took it off speaker mode before walking off and saying, "Mrs. Parker, as

Kendall's mother, I'm sure you're aware of how she feels about my son. Is this really what she wants?

She's madly in love with him, so much so that she even ran to the Colemans and declined their offer of

marriage in person."

Charlotte replied with a smile, "Mrs. Whittle, this is what Kendall wants as well. I've asked her multiple

times, and she says that she doesn't want to marry Jackson. She's not interested in romance right now,

and she wants to focus on her career. Mrs. Parker, you know how much I owe Kendall, so no matter

what she does, I will always respect her choice."

"I do apologize, Mrs. Whittle."

"This is what Kendall wants?"

Rosemi did not believe that at all.

However, Charlotte was not trying to convince her anyway. "Mrs. Whittle, I heard some card sounds

earlier, so you're probably in the middle of a card game, right? I won't keep you then. Let's have a meal

together some time. It'll be my treat."

"Alright."

Charlotte did not want to go any further, so Rosemi could not continue pressing her.

After hanging up the call, Rosemi's expression was as dark as night.

She turned to her friends and said, "Let's stop for today. I'll invite you all over again when I find the

time."

Then, Rosemi called the butler over to see the women off.

The other women had heard what Charlotte said earlier.

They were well aware that Rosemi was in a poor mood right now, so they did not outstay their

welcome.

"Mrs. Zucker, don't say anything about what you heard just now."

Rosemi suddenly addressed them again. "Only the four of you know what happened, so if word gets

out, I know that it's from one of you. I don't wish to end my friendship with any one of you."

All the women hurriedly promised to not speak a single word about the Parkers rejecting the Whittles'

offer of marriage.

After giving them a good warning, Rosemi rushed upstairs.

When she got to her son's room, she barged right in without even knocking.

Jackson had just come out of the bathroom, and he was still topless. He jumped in fright when his

mother came in and he hurriedly wrapped his arms around his chest. "Mom, why did you come in

without knocking first?"

"You're my son. I bathed you when you were little, so what's there to be shy about? Jackson, I'm so

mad right now."

Rosemi went over to the couch and sat down angrily.

"What's wrong, Mom? Who made you angry? Tell me, and I'll teach them a lesson."

Jackson pulled on a top before walking over and asking in concern, "Did you lose all the money you

won? It's just a few thousand. I'll transfer some money over to you, and tomorrow, you'll be able to

make them lose everything."

"It's not about money. Jackson, Mrs. Whittle called me just now and said that Kendall doesn't want to

marry you. They rejected our family's marriage proposal."

Rosemi was infuriated. "Does Kendall think she's some kind of goddess or the only woman left in this

world? If she weren't the actual daughter of the Parker Family who would be inheriting the family

fortune, she wouldn't even be fit to lick your shoes. How dare she look down on you?"

"Oh, that."

Jackson knew about it already.

He tried to appease Rosemi. "Mom, don't be angry. Think about it this way. Kendall even rejected the

Colemans' marriage offer, and how can we compare with the Colemans? It's not surprising that she

rejected us too."

"How is that the same? The Colemans might be the wealthiest family in Orapolis, but Dylan Coleman is

stuck in a wheelchair and he can't even function as a man. Kendall would basically be a widow if she

married him, and she would not be in her right mind if she did not reject him."

"Meanwhile, my son is a fine man who is faultless in every way. She should be thanking the heavens

for her great stroke of luck that you're willing to marry her! What a senseless girl!"

"We're gracious enough to accept her, but she has the audacity to reject us! This makes me so mad!"

Jackson sat down and put his arm around Rosemi's shoulders. "Mom, don't get so worked up. It's my

fault. I didn't even go over to see her after she slit her wrist, so she's still mad at me. She hasn't called

me or texted me recently, and when I went looking for her, she was so distant too, almost like she was

an entirely different person."

He was far too embarrassed to bring up the fact that Kendall had slapped him as well.

"It's alright, Mom. Once I coax her a little and give her some presents, she'll calm down again. We can

go over with a marriage proposal then, and I'm sure I'll be able to marry her."

However, Rosemi was less convinced.

Then again, she thought about the way Kendall treated Jackson in the past and found his words

believable enough.

"Then you better find some time to coax her. Oh, by the way, I have two sets of pearl jewelry that I'm

not too fond of. You can give those to her. Since she loves you so much, she'll be overjoyed to receive

such gifts from you, and she'll probably forgive you right after."

"Thanks, Mom."

"What are you thanking me for? I only want the best for you. Once you get your hands on Parker

Corporation, you'll be set for life."

Rosemi was feeling a lot better after talking to Jackson.

She went to her room and brought the two sets of jewelry over to Jackson. "Jackson, you need to be

on your toes when it comes to wooing a woman. Hurry up and bring the jewelry over to Kendall now.

You can coax her into going with you to meet your client. Before your plan succeeds, you have to

remember to keep wooing her."

Jackson took a look at the two sets of jewelry his mother gave him. He grew a little reluctant and said,

"Mom, these look rather expensive. Are you sure you want to give both to Kendall? Why don't I give

one to Kelly?"

Rosemi frowned and said, "Jackson, focus on coaxing Kendall first."

As for Kelly, whom she had once been very pleased with… If Kelly was unable to inherit the bulk of the

Parker Family fortune, then no matter how accomplished she was, she would be worthless in

comparison to Kendall.
