Sharon's words made Timothy's attitude toward Aurora even harsher. "Listen to your sister. You should learn a thing or two from her! In any case, the meeting with the Valerius family is settled. Use this time to prepare yourself. Don't do anything that will bring shame to the Sterling family!"
Hearing Timothy's words, Mrs. Sterling felt he had been a bit too harsh. She spoke gently to Aurora. "Aurora, this is just a meeting between our two families. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. We'll take a good look at this Damien Valerius. If he's a man of poor character, Grandma won't let you marry him. But if he seems like a decent person, you shouldn't give up this opportunity. Try to get to know him. While your father and I are very hopeful for an alliance with the Valerius family, your happiness is what we care about most."
