"You don't have to worry about you getting married to Derek. That is not something that I'm not going to agree to even if it is your father that wants that to happen." Ruth stated calmly.
Alicia who had not been expecting something like this was surprised by what her mother had said. After all, according to what she understood about her mother, it was that, she usually valued the benefits of the family, more than she valued her.
So, since you already knew about Derek, she was expecting that her mother was already plotting on how the two of them were going to get married. That was something that had been bothering her until now.
In order to be able to get out of this situation, she could only think of one solution. And that was, to get together with Jack. Jack was a person that she loved, and she believed that his family background was not weak if compared to hers. Moreover, it might even be stronger than her own family.
