"If Christian was interested in you, trust me, I would at least known about it since I am a fellow man. He would have made a move on you and not pretend to not know how much you love him."
"So, what is the problem with me?" Ashley asked, looking vexed already. She refused to believe that Christian didn't have an ounce of feeling for her. As far as he was concerned, he must be scared to marry into a powerful family like hers.
Christian was a good man. He was not greedy unlike the numerous men swimming around her just because of what they could gain by marrying her, and that is why she was so adamant about him.
