She nodded.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she closed her eyes.
His magnetic and sexy voice rang in her ears,
“One!”
“Two!”
“Three!”
She opened her eyes.
The surroundings seemed to be brightened all around her, but at the moment she opened her eyes, she didn’t notice the source of light.
He reminded, “Look beneath your feet.” Only then did she look down.
Her eyes instantly widened in shock, and she covered her mouth in disbelief.
Beneath her feet, there were the bright lights of the entire Kima town and those dense and
colourful lights formed two simple words appropriately!
“Marry me!”
She stood there and almost forgot to react for a moment as she was dumbfounded.
The hand which was holding her suddenly loosened, followed by his magnetic and gentle voice behind her.
“Natalia, will you marry me?”
She turned back in a hurry.
He had already knelt on one knee two steps away from her, holding an exquisite pink diamond ring in his hand and looking at her gently.
Zoe covered her mouth once again.
Everything had come so suddenly without any sign.
Even though she had already known that there would be a surprise tonight, she hadn’t expected it to be this kind of surprise.
She had a lump in her throat and her eyes became wet. The lights of the town beneath her feet and the galaxy path she had walked past, were enough to show his sincerity and intention.
For a moment, she felt panicked as she had no idea on what to do.
Then she heard him repeat again, ” Zoe , will
you marry me?”
The rims of her eyes grew red as she felt bitter and sweet in the meantime. She resisted the joy and the urge to pounce on him, saying, “Aren’t we married long ago?
What are you doing here?”
He said seriously, “I know, from a legal point of view, you’re already my wife, but it’s a once-in-a-lifetime matter. How can it just settle down in a perfunctory manner?”
“Before that, I was just afraid that you would run away, so I hurriedly tried to keep you around. But I’ll definitely make up for what I owe you, so this time it’s a formal proposal. Are you still willing to say yes?”
Zoe looked at him and she could feel the
nervousness beneath his calm voice.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She couldn’t help but smiled as she was touched and upset at the same time.
The reason she was touched was that he had been such a proud man and now he was willing to swallow his pride and set all this up with efforts for her sake.
In order to respect her feelings, he was willing to propose again.
The reason she was sad was that she seemed to be losing control of her mind.
She had told herself not to lose her heart
as she had already been hurt once and she couldn’t suffer the second time. But why she wanted to try again so badly?
However, now clearly wasn’t the time to be upset.
She had wanted to agree to his proposal long ago, but he had kept the whole thing from her for so long and didn’t even tell her anything after they had stayed here for four days.
He had to be punished for causing her to worry about nothing today, right?
As she was thinking of this, she rolled her eyes with a cunning look and smiled suddenly.
“Well … this! I still have to think about it!
As soon as she said, it could be clearly felt that his expression changed all of a sudden.
“What do you need to think?”
“Of course, I have to think about it. For example, you said that the reason you had married me in haste before was because you wanted to keep me around first. Such a scheming man like you is..”
Before she could finish her words, she saw him stand up suddenly.
She just had time to exclaim before the shiny diamond ring had been slipped onto her finger.
“Hey, what are you doing? I haven’t said yes yet!”
“You still intend to say no?”
His face got closer to her, and his tone suddenly turned wicked with some danger.
Obviously, he was as gentle as a sheep just now, but at this moment, he had already transformed into an evil wolf, as if he would swallow her if she refused again.
She leaned back and took a step backwards as he exuded a strong aura.
She hurriedly smiled in an ingratiating manner and said, “No, no.”
“That’s good.
He squinted and his face returned to the gentleness just now, “Then, from today onwards, we’re officially a couple.”
“Huh?”
She was dumbfounded and didn’t know what to do for a moment.
This was how they became a couple?
Why did she feel something wrong? Wasn’t the proposal ceremony a bit too fast?
She hadn’t even been touched enough yet.
How come it was suddenly over?
At this moment, inside a luxurious manor in the town, Ariana slapped her thigh when she was watching the man’s domineering look on the screen.
“My god! I’ve said that it wasn’t a good idea to leave it to him! Won’t he say a few more nice words? What girl would want to follow him if he was being so unreasonable?”
Beside her, the old Mr. Han who looked slightly pale was quite fond of Archie’s efficient style.
He retorted quietly beside her, “Didn’t he finally get it done? I don’t know what you’re anxious about.”
Ariana instantly turned around and glared at him.
When William was being glared, his expression immediately changed and said, “It’s indeed not good for Archie to do that. I’ll help you teach him a lesson when he comes back!”
Anne also interjected beside them, “Can daddy really bring mommy back? Why do I feel mommy was angry just now?”
Ariana hastily carried her up and coaxed, “No, you don’t understand this. You’ll know when you grow up. Mommy wouldn’t be angry, they are fine!”
Anne nodded in a seemingly understanding way, “Oh.
After she calmed Anne down, she turned around and continued to watch the live broadcast with great interest.
At this time, Zoe, who was still being proposed over there, had no idea that everything had been watched by the elders.
She looked at the man in front of her and roasted, “So you have prepared so much today just for this?”
He held her thin waist with his deep eyebrows. The two of them were facing each other and he held her in his arms. The atmosphere was indescribably affectionate.
“Don’t like it?”
She thought for a while, “The beginning is fine, but what the hell is it for the latter part?
At least I’m a girl and I might be shy once in a while. Can’t you be a bit patient?”
As she spoke in a soft voice, she lowered her head, her cheeks and ears were slightly flushed.
The tone was a little spiteful, but more of petulance.
As he listened to it, he felt his heart melting.
She still felt that it wasn’t enough and continued to roast, “Look, you have ruined such a romantic atmosphere
Henry curled his lips and smiled.
He reached out his hand and touched her chin, making her look at him, “Is it spoiled just like this? Is it everything you would ask for?”
She was stunned as a pair of watery eyes were blinking and looking at her.
“Do you know where we are now?
