Without Hesitation

Matthew Hesh straightened, the quilt slipping slightly from his chest, but he didn't flinch under Charles Fitzwilliam's piercing gaze. The room remained silent except for the faint ticking of a clock on the wall, each second stretching the tension.

Charles's words hung in the air, heavy and unrelenting: You are going to have to marry her.

"I'll do it," Matthew said without hesitation, his voice calm and steady.

Amber's eyes widened, and she turned to Matthew, her expression a mixture of shock and confusion. 

"You'll... do it? Just like that?"

Matthew met her gaze, his expression softening. "Yes. I meant what I said, Amber. I care about you, deeply. If marrying you is the next step, then so be it."

Charles raised an eyebrow, his expression unreadable, though a flicker of surprise crossed his face. He hadn't expected such a swift and decisive response.
