Chapter 218: The Proposal
The taxi stopped and Rory looked out. It was dark and there was nothing she could see until her eyes reached. The headlights of the taxi revealed a mushy dirt road ahead.
"The taxi can’t go any further," Liam said.
"Okay then," Rory tried to get down. But Liam stopped her.
Oh! Is he going to open the door for me? How romantic!
She giggled in her heart.
But when the love of her life offered her a blindfold, she rolled her eyes. "Seriously? Is this necessary?" she asked.
Liam nodded. "Trust me, Cherry..." he held her hand.
He knew how hard it is going to be for her. She always hated the dark and he is asking her to be in the dark while navigating into an unknown place. And that was all after the trauma she went through.
But he knew one thing. If there is one person who could ask her this much, it would be him. She loves him that much. And she trusts him that much.
"Don’t you dare let go of my hand," she said gritting her teeth. She was not angry. She was scared. But she saw the expectation in his eyes. Poor guy must have planned a lot and she didn’t want to ruin his fun.
Liam nodded. Without knowing his eyes watered when she got the blindfold and tied her eyes.
"I love you, Cherry... I really really love you," he whispered in her ear.
