Chapter 17

The Morris family was on an upswing while the Christensen family was sinking like a ship. Wouldn’t it be a raw deal if Rebecca still decided to marry into the Christensens?

How could their precious daughter marry a poor guy?

But calling off the engagement would be a gossip feast for the town.

Sandra sighed and recounted the situation to Rebecca.

A nearly broke family, and they still wanted to marry her off? As if!

That was a pipe dream!
