“I watched the two children grow up. I have participated in each of their milestones, and I hope that I can be part of their future as well. I want to watch them grow up every day, from school to society, from children to adults, and watch them get married and have children. I don’t want to miss every moment of their growth.”
“At the same time, I want to tell you. I love you, and I will only love you all my life,” Theo said each word from the bottom of his heart. From the look on his face and in his eyes, it could be seen that he was serious.
“So, Kate, will you marry me?”
Theo repeated the question in a foreign language. The crowd burst into applause, and everyone shouted, “Marry him!”
Katherine felt shocked and was deeply moved.
She agreed to be with him, but never expected Theo to orchestrate a marriage proposal.
Any woman would be moved by this.
Furthermore, Theo didn’t mind her past at all and even treated her children like his biological children.
Why would she not accept his proposal?
Katherine took the flowers and slowly nodded under Theo’s intense gaze. “Yes, I will.”
Joy overflowed from Theo’s eyes. As someone who was always calm, Theo was a bit flustered at this moment as he took out the ring in a hurry.
Katherine stretched out her hand, and he solemnly and delightedly put the ring on her.
The moment Katherine wore on the ring, Jacob’s indifferent face appeared in her mind unexpectedly and her heart skipped a beat.
But his face only lasted a second before she cleared him away from her mind.
The moment she wore the ring, the malls played the song, “Today you are going to marry me”. The joyous music made everyone smile.
After the proposal, they were all a little exhausted.
On the way back, Felix and Merry both fell asleep in the car.
Theo held a child in each arm and entered the house.
After tucking the children in bed, they quietly walked out of the room.
Katherine rubbed the ring on her finger and complained a little, “You don’t need to make it so grand.”
How much did it cost?
Theo smiled. “For you, this is not grand enough. When we get married, I will definitely plan a more magnificent wedding.”
Wedding…
Katherine’s eyelashes moved. She felt strange inside.
Ignoring this weird feeling, Katherine smiled and said, “You are probably quite tired by now. Why don’t you go back and rest?”
Theo didn’t move, staring at her intensely. “Since it’s so late, why don’t you let me stay for the night?”
Katherine panicked and said quickly, “The guest rooms are not ready yet.”
Theo saw that she was a little flustered and smiled. “Just kidding.”
Katherine was relieved.
“But…”
Before Theo finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Katherine’s wrist and dragged her into his arms.
Katherine felt the room spin before she was pressed against the wall by Theo.
Katherine wanted to break away subconsciously, but there was a huge difference in strength between men and women. Theo deliberately restrained her, so there was no way she could.
“Theo, you…”
Theo looked at her with deep and fierce eyes. He was straight forward with his words. “I want to kiss you.”
Katherine subconsciously wanted to refuse, but suddenly remembered that they were now dating and she just accepted his marriage proposal.
She had no reason to reject him… What they were doing now made sense.
Katherine made up her mind and stopped struggling. Her hands, however, were clenched tightly.
Katherine took a deep breath and closed her eyes tightly as Theo slowly approached.
As the distance between their lips and lips decreased, Theo stopped moving.
He stared at Katherine’s face.
Although she didn’t break away, he could feel the tension in her body and that she kept her guard up.
Although she closed his eyes, she didn’t look shy at all. She was calm as if waiting to be executed.
Theo closed his and was a bit hurt.
She was reluctant.
All his longings disappeared as if a fire was put out. Theo suddenly calmed down and let go of her.
Katherine waited for a while and didn’t feel Theo’s touch. She became puzzled and opened her eyes.
At that moment, she saw the pain and sadness in Theo’s eyes and felt pain in her heart.
“Theo…”
However, all signs of his struggles faded away from his eyes the next second. Only the usual calm and gentleness remained.
“I know you are not ready yet. I will not force you. I will wait for you until the day you are ready.”
Katherine could only feel guilt. How could she assume that as long as she didn’t struggle, Theo would not notice her reluctance?
It was just that she couldn’t get over it
“Just, don’t make me wait too long, Kate,” Theo rubbed her head and said gently. “Go to bed. I’m going back.”
With that, he turned and left.
Katherine watched his back, feeling even guiltier.
