Love In Between

CHAPTER 55

Ava couldn’t shake the feeling of restlessness that had settled in her chest as she watched Andrew mingling with the media. She knew she needed to talk to him, to find out what was really going on. She made her way through the crowd, her heart pounding in her chest as she approached him.

“Andrew,” she said, her voice barely audible above the noise of the party. “Can I talk to you for a moment?”

Andrew turned to her, a smile on his face. “Of course, my love,” he said, taking her hand and leading her to a quiet corner of the room.

Ava took a deep breath, her heart racing. “Andrew, I need to know what’s going on,” she said, her voice trembling. “Why did you invite all these people? And why did you invite the media?”

Andrew looked at her for a moment, a small smile playing at the corners of his mouth. “I wanted to showcase my success, my lifestyle, and my circle of contacts,” he said. “I wanted to make some new business deals, and I wanted to show everyone that I’ve made it.” He lied

Ava felt her heart drop. She couldn’t shake the feeling that he wanted to propose to her

“Andrew, is there something else going on?” she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Andrew feigned ignorance and said “What? No, Ava, of course not. Why would you think that?”

Ava felt her heart racing, panic rising in her chest. She had suspected that Andrew was planning on proposing to her, and now she felt like she had been blindsided. She knew she needed to stop him, but she didn’t know how.

As the party reached its climax, Andrew made his way up to the stage, a microphone in hand. The crowd immediately grew quiet, all eyes on him as he began to speak.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you all for coming here tonight,” he began, his voice confident and commanding. “I know that many of you are wondering why I invited you all here tonight. And I want to take this opportunity to explain.”

Ava felt her heart pounding in her chest as she listened to Andrew’s speech. He spoke about his success and his lifestyle, about the new business deals he had made and the contacts he had expanded. But what caught Ava’s attention most was when he began talking about her.

“I also want to talk about the most important person in my life, Ava,” he said, his gaze locking onto hers. “She is the one who has stood by me through everything, the one who has helped me achieve my dreams. I want to thank her for everything she has done, not just for me but for her company as well, she was able to revive it and stop it from crumbling.”

Ava felt her heart swell with emotion as she listened to Andrew’s words. She had never expected him to speak so highly of her, to give her credit for her own accomplishments.

As Andrew continued his speech, he suddenly paused and looked directly at Ava. “Ava,” he said, his voice filled with emotion. “Will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?”

The crowd erupted into cheers and applause as Andrew got down on one knee and pulled out a small box from his pocket. Ava felt her heart race as she saw the ring inside, a sparkling diamond that glimmered in the light.

As Andrew got down on one knee, Ava felt her heart race as she saw the ring inside the small box. She had suspected that Andrew was going to propose, but now that the moment was here, she was filled with confusion and uncertainty.

She knew that Andrew had been controlling in the past, and she wasn’t sure if she wanted to spend the rest of her life with someone like that. She also knew that Bruce had been a big part of her life and she loved him deeply, and she didn’t know how to balance her feelings for both men.

She glanced around at the crowd, everyone was staring at her with bated breath, waiting for her to give her answer. The Media were capturing the live moment and Ava knew that whatever she decides it would be on the news the next day.

She took a deep breath and looked back at Andrew, who was still kneeling before her with a hopeful look in his eyes. She knew that she had to make a decision, and fast.

She thought about everything that had happened between them, the good and the bad. She thought about the love and the passion they shared and how he had been by her side through thick and thin. But she also couldn’t forget the moments when she felt controlled and suffocated by his actions.NôvelDrama.Org content.

She felt torn between rejecting his proposal and accepting it. She knew that if she accepted, she would be committing to a lifetime with Andrew, but she was also scared of what the future holds and the possibility of losing Bruce.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, Ava made her decision. She looked into Andrew’s eyes and said “Yes.”

The crowd erupted into cheers and applause as Andrew slipped the ring onto her finger. Ava felt a flood of emotions as she looked at the ring on her finger, knowing that this was the beginning of a new chapter in her life which she wasn’t sure if she wants to embark on.

As the cheers and applause died down, Andrew stood up and pulled Ava into a deep, passionate kiss. She could feel the love and excitement radiating from him as he held her close. The crowd continued to cheer and clap, and Ava couldn’t help but feel a sense of happiness and contentment wash over her.

As they pulled away from each other, Andrew turned to the crowd and said, “Ladies and gentlemen, I give you my fiancé, Ava!”

The crowd erupted into cheers and applause once again, and Ava felt her heart swell with emotion. She had never felt so loved and supported before, although momentarily images of Bruce and Chloe flashed through her mind which made her jittery and cause her to have second thoughts.
