When the Fletcher family learned the news, they were furious!

However, Aaron was the only heir to the family, and they couldn't simply disown him. So, they had no choice but to accept Selena.

Aaron oversaw every detail, making sure any flaw, no matter how small, was corrected. His attention and affection toward Selena only grew stronger with each passing day.
