Ernest stood beside her and said in a low voice, “Why are you so nervous? Florence, I don’t like you to stare at him.”
Ernest said in a jealous tone.
Florence looked at Ernest blankly. Her mind was in a mess and she didn’t know what to say.
At this time, Mr. Hawkins even had the time to be jealous.
Wasn’t he afraid that Hector was here to snatch her?
Hector looked straight into Andrew’s eyes and said in a loud and serious tone, “Mr. Andrew, according to the customs of our country, a man’s proposal cannot be refused. I have brought the bride price. Tonight, I will take my bride away.”
Andrew stood there awkwardly and was about to explode.
He was in a dilemma and stuttered, “Duke Hector, although you said so, but… Miss Florence is not a member of Raflad after all. She doesn’t have to follow the rules of Raflad. Besides, Florence has nothing to do with me. You come here to propose, but it’s not up to me.”
Hector raised his head and looked at Florence, who was holding Ernest’s hand. His eyes darkened.
Then he said to Andrew, “you can make the decision.”
He turned around and finally looked at Bonnie.
Hector’s eyes softened, with irresistible determination.
“Because I’m going to marry Bonnie.”
His words were like a bomb thrown in the lake, exploding in an instant.
Even Florence was shocked.
She looked at Hector in disbelief. It took her a while to digest what he had said.
He said he was going to marry Bonnie?
Bonnie?!
Florence was in a good mood, as if she had been proposed by someone she liked.
She held Ernest’s hand excitedly and said, “Ernest, Hector is going to marry Bonnie. They…”
Before she could finish her words, she looked at the indifferent expression on Ernest’s face and subconsciously realized something.
She asked suspiciously, “have you already guessed it?”
Was that why he was so calm when Hector came to propose just now? And he had time to be jealous.
Otherwise, with Ernest’s temper, if he dared to propose to her in public, he would probably crush Hector to death before Hector could say the second sentence.
Ernest nodded at the tip of Florence’s nose and said dotingly, “Only you are so stupid.”
Hector was not a fool. He had already known everything. Even if he was still obsessed with Florence, he would not propose to her.
Because everyone knew that the rules of Raflad were not effective on Florence.
But today, he came to propose with betrothal presents. Obviously, there would be another possibility. The bride was not Florence, but Bonnie.
It seemed that Hector had come back to his senses and knew clearly what he really loved these days.
Bonnie stood still in a daze.
She stared at Hector in a daze.
She must have been crazy because she hadn’t slept well for a few days. She even had an illusion?
So that she could hear Hector’s ridiculous words.
Hector looked straight at Bonnie and walked towards her step by step.
He stared at her, as if there was only her in his eyes.
He said in a low and serious voice, “Bonnie, I’ve thought a lot these two days. Finally, I realize that I’ve fallen in love with you since when.”
‘I have fallen in love with you…’
These words hit Bonnie’s heart like lightning. She was so shocked that she even lost her breath.
This was a scene that she couldn’t even dream of.
Hector said he liked her.
“I have always been a freak. I don’t like to get in touch with women, and I don’t like women to be too close to me. But I never resist you. All the time, I only think that it’s because of Florence.
But in fact, I have been attracted by your smile. I like your pure and kind personality. You always unconsciously attracted my attention.
When I’m with you, my heart beats quicken. When I touch you, I feel as if an electric current has run through my body.
These feelings have always been ignored by me. It was not until that day when you left carelessly that I felt a sense of loss and felt empty and sad.
I just know that I have fallen in love with you for a long time.”
Hector stared at Bonnie and said his real thought.
Bonnie looked at Hector in a daze and her eyes turned red. Such a clear voice and words broke her defense line in her heart bit by bit.
She clearly realized that it was not a dream.
It was really Hector who was confessing his love to her. It was her dream, but it turned out to be true.
Hector took another step forward and stopped in front of Bonnie.
He took out a delicate square box from his bag and opened it. It was a well cut diamond ring.
He stared at her nervously and seriously.
“Bonnie, marry me.”
Tears welled up in her eyes.
Bonnie covered her mouth and choked with sobs. She couldn’t even say a word, but kept nodding.
Of course she was willing to marry him. She dreamed of marrying him.
Even if it was just a dream, she was willing to do it. She didn’t want to wake up again.
Hector’s tense face relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.
He gently took Bonnie’s hand and solemnly put the ring on her finger.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful.”
Florence couldn’t help but sigh.
Hector and Bonnie stood together. Their affectionate look was like a beautiful picture scroll.
Lovers finally were together.
Ernest put his arm around Florence’s shoulder and whispered in her ear, “Do you envy them?”
Florence nodded subconsciously.
Ernest chuckled and said in a magnetic and charming voice, “let’s go back and get married.”
In this way, she didn’t have to admire others.
All of a sudden, Florence’s heart skipped a beat.
Get married as soon as they went back?
Thinking of the scene that she and Ernest were making a vow in the church, Florence couldn’t help blushing. She felt so sweet in her heart.
If only she could marry Ernest after she went back.
But would Stanford and her parents agree?
Andrew didn’t come to his senses until he saw Hector and Bonnie hugging.
Then he smiled with relief.
It was an unexpected ending. He thought Duke Hector would have a grudge against each other, but he finally became his son-in-law unexpectedly.
Andrew laughed heartily:
“I will ask someone to pack Bonnie’s luggage right away. Tonight, she will marry Duke Hector.”
