Eric was elated when Caro accepted the dinner invitation. But during dinner when he brought up their marriage conversation, she put him off.
"Eric, I am really serious about my decision. We can't get married now," she said to him.
Eric frowned. He knew the reason she said that, so he stated, "I have already fired May and removed her from all our ongoing projects. And in the future, she won't be working with us. What else do I have to do to proof that I am set."
"You haven't learnt to truly and fully trust your partner in a relationship Even though you finally relented and did the right thing with May, that doesn't proof anything. I don't want us to rush into marriage and end up getting a divorce. I don't want my marriage to fail, so I want to take all the time before settling down. I need to make sure that my partner is working with me."
