Chapter 137: Propose (1)
Rose went straight up to her room while Sam and Oliver continued to another place, where they would meet Gavin.
When Rose entered the hotel room, she was stunned. For a slight moment, she just stood there motionless. Her eyes were mesmerized to see the floor was covered with white and pink rose petals like a flower carpet that led her to enter the room. After sinking into the shock for a while, she could finally move her legs slowly.
She walked, following the flower petals. Afraid to break the flower petals, she walked carefully. So slow. After a few moments following the flower carpet, she finally arrived at the living room area. Once again, she is stunned when her eyes capture the man she loves. Evan stands looking at her with her gentle eyes. At that moment, her heart starts pounding like crazy.
Rose notices Evan still wears his outfit like this morning. What makes Rose dumbstruck is the white wall behind him, now decorated with red and pale pink roses that rise up to the ceiling. Many balloons in gold and white colors also candles were arranged in the small stage area where her man was standing.
"How could this man decorate this room so quickly?" This is the first question that pops up in her mind.
Rose was just standing a few meters from the stage. She forgot to say anything. Just looking at his deep blue eyes made her touch. She could see the man’s gaze, radiant love. Her mind could tell what Evan was doing now; he wanted to propose to her. This fact shook her heart wildly, and her knee felt weak.
She doesn’t know why she reacts like this. Shouldn’t she be jumping for joy? Like she used to see in dramas? This is not right. Her knee really betrayed her now. She forced herself to step forward toward the man who waited for her on the mini stage
Her courage arose to look him in the eyes during her step to him. "E-Evan..." Her voice was so soft calling his name when she finally reached him. She could feel Evan’s warm hands hold her hand. Instantly her cold hands felt better now.
"Rose..." Evan’s charming low voice made Rose’s heart tighten. Her eyes were still on his as he continued, "Sorry if I’ve been saying all along that I want to register our marriage without properly proposing to you. I feel really terrible now to have skipped this significant step...I’m really sorry, Rose."
Rose listens in silence, but deep down in her heart, it feels like she wants to stop Evan from doing this. No need to propose to her again because she had agreed to marry him from the start. This kind of procession was not crucial to her. But, what can she do now!? She couldn’t stop him because, at this moment, she was utterly speechless. It is complicated for her to string words.
The moment Rose saw, Evan began to kneel in front of her. At the same time, her heart started to beat even more. Her tongue was getting more and more groggy to say something. She could only cover her mouth with her hand while screaming in her mind, "Oh my god!"
Rose saw him take a tiny black box. And when he opened it, she saw a beautiful sparkling diamond ring lying in the box. The ring is gorgeous and not overly artistic. It’s precisely the type of jewelry Rose always likes. After looking at the ring, she turned her gaze to Evan’s eyes. She immediately drowned into his deep blue eyes.
