With the car entering the urban district slowly, Selina was so nervous that her palms were sweating.
Zoe leaned closer with a tilt of her head and asked, “What does Darren want to do”
She shook her head. If she knew, she would not be so nervous.
The car was parked beside the Star Square, which was the most prosperous square in the City D, and the car stopped at the gate.
Seeing the red carpet extending from the side of car to the door of the Star Building, she was a little stunned. This…
Murray opened the door of the car for her, “Miss Reed, please get out of the car.”
“Well, the businessman intends to play the romance” Zoe pursed her lips, but with a hint of obvious smile in her eyes. She wore a mask, pushed the door and got out of the car.
Selina smiled faintly. Darren’s romance was always for her only. In others’ opinion, he was just an indifferent workaholic, but she was the only one who had seen his sincereness and romance.
Selina alighting from the car, a long gauzy dress dotted with crystals was shining like stars.
Innumerable reporters came out of the crowds and couldn’t help taking her photo.
Murray made a gentleman’s salute to her respectfully, “Madam, please.”
Selina looked at him with surprise and Murray had already receded back.
She swallowed hard, took a deep breath and walked slowly towards the end of the red carpet.
She didn’t need to think about what she would be faced with. It was enough as long as she knew Darren was in front of her. She would keep moving ahead with courage until walking close to him, no matter how others thought, no matter how others would stop her.
At the end of the red carpet, Darren walked slowly out of the hotel, wearing a silver suit.
She stopped when he was five meters away.
Darren looked at her, with his tender eyes just like the galaxy surrounding her. He walked straight to her slowly step by step and called her named gently, “Selina.”
“Why are there so many people” She looked at him with embarrassment.
“Because I want everyone to witness this moment.” Darren held her hands and signaled her to look at the square.
Selina followed his sight doubtfully.
Darren walked behind her, lifted her hands, and whispered in her ear, “As long as you clench your hands, everything will be yours.”
She looked at him in doubt, “Clench the hands”
“Yes.”
Doubt, curiosity and nervousness interwoven, she clenched her palms little by little until they became a fist.
Bang~
All the lights in the square went out. Countless fireworks rushed into the sky and spread out one by one, illuminating the sky overhead.
Selina covered her mouth in shock, and couldn’t believe what she saw before her eyes.
Over the red carpet shone the stars, just like a galaxy.
“Selina.”
She turned around and saw Darren get down on one knee and open the ring box slowly, where there was a pink diamond ring.
“Darren”
Selina didn’t know how to react, but looked blankly at the man who got down on one knee in front of her, with her eyes full of tears. She had been expecting this moment all the time since she woke up.
“Marry me, OK”
A thunderous applause broke out in the square, and reporters pressed the shutter frantically. It turned out to be an unprecedentedly superb proposal.
“I…” She choked and couldn’t speak, but nodded hard.
Darren took out the ring, put it on her finger and left a kiss on her ring finger, “In that fire, I went in to find this.”
“Darren!” At this moment, she swung into his arms. All the grievances and heartbreaks turned into tears at the moment.
She really hated herself of the past.
How could she be so malicious and hurt a man who loved her so much
How couldn’t she treat him well
Darren lowered his head and kissed her hair, “Don’t cry. I never want you to cry.”
“Darren, I love you. I really love you.”
“I know, silly girl.”
Zoe stood beside. She took out her mobile phone and took a photo. She sent it to the group with both envy and distress, “Look, this is the real ultimate trick for single people.”
Ignoring the group battle caused by her photo, she closed the group chat, and began to filtrate Selina’s next advertisement. With Darren as fiancé, Selina was really set for entering the first-tier ranks.
Inside the hotel, Selina sat down on the carpet and stared blankly at the ring on her finger.
Darren walked out of the bathroom. Seeing her like this, he walked over, sat down beside her and gripped her hands, “As for the marriage ring, I will compensate you for a better one.”
She shook her head quickly, “No, this one is great. It is the limited first edition of your company’s True Love series. I managed to get it thanks to Zoe’s efforts in pulling some strings for me.
Darren stretched out to pull her into his arms. Outside the window was the capital under the night sky, feasting and bustling.
“My mom had planned to let us to be married directly.”
She raised her head and looked at him, “I want to marry you.”
Darren was surprised by her straightforwardness, and then put his chin on her shoulder, with a faint smile on his face, “All the girls want a proposal. What I can give you will not absolutely be worse than others. This is my promise.”
“I believe you.”
From now on, she would believe in him without reservation.
Turning back and embracing him, she was hearing his heartbeat on his chest and she felt nothing happier than this moment.
“Selina.” He raised her chin and kissed her lips gently.
She put her arms around his neck obediently.
“Looked at me and remember me.” Darren pushed her down slowly and deepened the kiss.
Feeling a chill in her chest, Selina’s blurred eyes suddenly turned clear, and she pushed Darren away subconsciously.
The aunt had said she was now a victim and she couldn’t be intimate with him. Otherwise she would be found out.
Feeling her refusal, Darren entwined his fingers with hers, and looked down at her, “Selina, look at me. Don’t be afraid of me… Call my name.”
“Darren.”
His gentle kiss dropped on her forehead, and her cheek…
“Darren… Darren…”
This night, she called Darren innumerable times, and finally fell asleep with satisfaction between his arms.
“There is only my trace on your body and you don’t need to be afraid anymore…” He whispered in her ear with husky voice. Then he stood up and walked to the bathroom to deal with his sexual desire.
Early in the morning, the phone rang and woke up Selina who was dreaming.
She stretched out her hand and grabbed the phone to put it near her ear, “Hello”
The man in the other end of the line kept in silence. Selina came to her sense slowly. Hadn’t her phone been taken away by Jacky
She suddenly opened her eyes and put the phone in front of her. This was Darren’s!
The phone was hung up, without any remark.
Thinking of last night, she couldn’t help smiling and rolled in the quilt grabbing the cellphone.
“Did you wake up”
Darren walked in from outside, looking at her naïve behavior helplessly.
She handed his cellphone to him, “Sorry, I was sleeping in a daze and answered your phone call carelessly.
“That’s OK. Get out of the bed. I have made breakfast.”
The breakfast he made. Selina’s eyes lit up and she pulled back the quilt, running toward him, “Breakfast you made for me”
“Of course.” He stretched out his hand and touched her nose, “Eat the breakfast quickly and then I will take you back home.”
“Well, OK.”
