Chapter 626
The room fell silent . Lady Fleurance and Grace had their mouths hanging open before it twisted to the question of how an average vampire could ask for a pureblooded vampiress hand . Maggie had turned her head as if the air had knocked out of her body . She blinked looking at Jerome .
As Gerald had not spoken a word yet, contemplating the situation, Lady Fleurance started, "Do you think a lowly vampire like yourself will end up with a pureblooded vampiress?" and when the woman had just finished her words, Gerald said,
"Okay . You have my permission," and the room turned even more silent than before .
Penny who was sitting there watching everything play out, she couldn't tell how much respect she had for Damien's father right now . Not only had he been surviving all these years with a woman like Lady Fleurance but he had decided to give Jerome a chance . A man who was of not equal social status compared to Quinn's .
"What are you doing?" Lady Fleurance placed her hand on her husband's arm and Gerald turned to meet his wife's eyes, "We are supposed to keep the bloodline clean and pure . "
The man gave his wife a smile as if she were an innocent lamb who knew nothing, "Jerome is a good man if he and Maggie have a shot I would give it," and the lady looked at him as if her husband had lost it .
Gerald would have been on the same page as Fleurance if his daughter had not been engaged previously but he had seen how the smile had been stolen when it was not her fault . Previously, when they had got her engaged to a pureblooded vampire named Sven the man had broken her trust and the events that had occurred after that still haunted his daughter . Maggie usually kept her thoughts to herself but he could see the pain in her eyes . It was the very same time he told himself that he wouldn't force his children to get married . If they fell in love with someone or showed interest in another, he would not come to cross it .
Maybe if his first wife was still alive things wouldn't be the same and the matter would be looked into in a more stringent manner but it was the matter of his children's happiness .
Maggie had gone through enough when it came to love and if there was an opportunity for her to feel the love again, Gerald would not come between her and the person .
"Durik, could you get a glass of wine," Gerald said without looking at the butler who was quick to leave the room to breathe some fresh air where people were not about to throw things at each other, "Now if you both will sit down and have lunch," he said looking at both Maggie and Grace . Maggie didn't know what to say with the sudden turn of events and she was the first one to sit while Grace who found herself to be the odd one out sat down immediately after her sister did .
