Chapter 167: Heartbreak
The moment Jamal woke up the next morning, the first thought on his mind was Ryan’s proposal.
After his conversation with Ryan at night, Jamal had left to join the rest of Genevieve’s team for the team dinner. Although he had gotten there quite late.
He had not called Tom or anyone else to tell them about Ryan’s offer because he wanted to take his time to think about it first before sharing with anyone else.
He had weighed the pros and cons, and decided that accepting the offer was definitely the wise thing to do since it would make everything much easier for them.
It would make communication with Abigail easier. He would shower Abigail with love and attention while making Ryan believe he was putting up an act.
Although he doubted they would be there long enough for him to marry Abigail. This whole show would be up long before any marriage. He had no intention of marrying Abigail under a false identity.
If he had ever had any doubt that Ryan was a crazy man and a very manipulative one, then this had totally cleared it.
It was becoming glaring that Ryan thought of people as play objects or puppets meant for his amusement.
As he freshened up he remembered what he told the kitchen staff the last time about being in a relationship.
Seeing how close they were to Abigail, he knew they would look at him like scum if they so much as imagined that he was dumping his supposed first love to be with Abigail. They’d think he was a golddigger and Abigail deserved better. He didn’t want to get on their bad side.
He also didn’t want to get on Josh’s bad side. He knew that he was going to need to correct what he had said to get their approval to date Abigail.
