Chapter 146 The Platinum Mine

Marcus stared stunned at Jasper who had just given him a marriage proposal.

'What the hell, where did this come from. I mean he is a nice guy and I appreciate how hard he works for his people, but I am not looking for a relationship right now, and I am still a guy at my core.'

With a heavy expression Marcus replied to Jasper who had sprung a proposal on him and said, "Sorry Jasper, I have no intention of marrying anyone and while I like you as a person, I will never be able to think of you as more than a friend."

Jasper hearing Marcus' full-on rejection had his expression go from one of happy nervousness, to a sullen one.

"I understand Lady Geist, I knew it was a long shot and I understand. I ah have to go."

After that, Jasper left Marcus' room looking incredibly dejected. and Marcus could swear he saw a couple of tears falling down his face.
