Novel Update
Chapter 39
Upon entering the venue, the people around Selena gasped in amazement, causing her to become more and more curious. "What is it? Quickly, let me take a look!"
Linda had already started taking pictures with her phone. "President Yard, you can't look! If you look, it won’t be a surprise anymore!"
Some employees of Forever Gown had also arrived, and everyone was busy taking pictures of the romantic venue. The whole place looked just like an idol drama set, so of course they had to take pictures of it.
Meanwhile, Juniper had even begun to record a video; she wanted to record everything from the start to the end.
Suddenly, romantic violin music resounded through the room, causing the corners of Selena's lips to curve into a smile. Then, a line of men in black stood in the doorway.
Then, Juniper smiled and gestured to everyone to keep quiet, and at that, everyone quietly dispersed.
In the meantime, Pierre slowly walked toward Selena. Under the flickering flames of the candles, his figure appeared much more attractive, and his pair of deep eyes looked much more charming than usual when coupled with the darkness of the night.
"Juniper? Linda? What are you doing? Why does it feel like you're all gone?" Selena suddenly felt that she was all alone. Added to the fact that she was blindfolded, she suddenly felt less safe. "Say something! If you don't say anything, I'll have to take off this blindfold!" Selena stomped her foot, indicating that she was angry. At the sight of that, Juniper covered her mouth and snickered while she continued shooting the video, and the others also remained silent.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
After Selena finished speaking, she felt that there was still no one there, so she angrily ripped off her blindfold and saw Pierre right in front of her! As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Pierre's attractive face, and she instantly panicked. What is going on? Why is this man dressed so formally?
Pierre’s sudden appearance made Selena flustered, and she even blushed a little. "Wow, you really think highly of me, huh? You’re dressed so formally like you’re attending a banquet." After saying that, Selena laughed dryly; she really did not know how to face Pierre.
However, Pierre did not say anything, so the atmosphere became a little awkward.
"Um… Where are the two boys? Why aren’t they here?”
Instead of answering her, Pierre suddenly took a stalk of rose out from behind him like he was doing a magic trick. When Selena saw this, she took the rose from him in confusion. Not knowing what was going on, she continued to say awkwardly, “Is this my birthday gift? Wow, you’re really too stingy."
Then, Pierre pulled out a red velvet ring box from his pocket and gently opened it. "Marry me."
Those were the only two words that came out of his mouth. There was no lengthy confession nor promises, but just these two words.
When Juniper heard that, she pursed her lips. She thought Mr. Handsome would prepare a lot of things to say, and she did not expect him to be so direct. Nevertheless, she thought that her mother would still fall for such a direct and simple proposal.
The sudden proposal immediately baffled Selena. Upon looking at the ring, then at the roses, then at Pierre, her lips trembled a little and she felt like her mind had gone blank. This is the first time I am proposed to! This is just too sudden...
"Mommy, why are you still standing there in a daze? Hurry up and agree! I want Mr. Handsome to be my daddy!" Juniper shouted toward Selena.
Watching from the side, Linda was secretly wiping her tears away, a smile on her face. After all, she saw Selena as a strong and resourceful woman, so this was the first time she saw the latter being so embarrassed. However, Linda was really happy for her, because what she lacked now was not money or status, but a good man who loved her.
On the other hand, Selena had actually been considering her relationship with Pierre some time ago, but she hadn't thought it through yet. Hence, she was completely befuddled when the man suddenly proposed to her.
