Select a wedding ring!
Leia Quinn was shocked and at a loss.
"Wayne, I..."
They had only just started dating; was it already ti to tie the knot?
She wasn’t ntally prepared!
"Cindy, this is the latest wedding ring released this year by a jeweler under Hawke Corporation. Do you like it?"
Craig Landers picked up a pigeon egg-sized ring, his gaze deeply set on Leia Quinn.
Leia Quinn opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
Craig Landers looked at her, his eyes still smiling, "If you don’t speak, I’ll take it that you like it. Cindy, will you marry ?"
Marry him!
Was he proposing to her just like that?
"Is this a proposal? Where are the flowers?"
"Exactly, won love flowers. If there are no flowers, a girlfriend would naturally hesitate."
"Yes, he needs flowers. It won’t do without flowers!"
"..."
The people around them were egging them on.
Craig Landers smiled at Leia Quinn, "Cindy, are they right? Is it because I didn’t prepare flowers that you haven’t responded?"
Flowers?
Isn’t it besides the point?
Leia Quinn moved her lips, trying to find her voice, but when she t Craig Landers’ smiling, enchanting eyes, she couldn’t utter a word.
At this mont, like a magician, Craig Landers pulled a fake rose from behind.
"Cindy, I didn’t want my proposal to be cliché, but it seems to have ended up that way regardless. I didn’t buy 999 roses because, like this artificial flower, my heart for you is unwavering and will never wither!"
The man’s tone was gentle, with a touch of lingering affection.
His already handso face was even more alluring due to his deep affection, utterly captivating.
lodious music hovered in the air, as if accompanying his proposal.
The emotions and scene made Leia Quinn feel a strange ache in her nose.
Speechless and sweetly moved, she covered her mouth, unable to speak a word.
"Marry him! Marry him! Marry him!"
The people around them clapped rhythmically, urging them on.
Craig Landers held her right hand and bent down slightly.
"Cindy darling, I intended to make the proposal more romantic, but I couldn’t wait. I’m afraid if I don’t put a ring on you, soone else might take you away. Actually, I’m not that confident about my own charm."
As Craig Landers spoke, he slipped the wedding ring onto Leia Quinn’s hand.
He held her hand, a smile on his lips, "Cindy, marry ."
"Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"
The people around them started cheering again, changing ’marry him’ into ’kiss’.
Craig Landers chuckled, cupping Leia Quinn’s face as he slowly leaned in...
Leia Quinn passively accepted the whole situation, suddenly finding herself engaged.
She wasn’t prepared to marry, but the current scene made her feel she should marry him.
After all, didn’t she love him too?
Leia Quinn slowly wrapped her arms around his waist, returning the embrace gradually.
People around them captured the romantic mont, buzzing with discussions.
Landers family old residence.
Selena Taylor sat on the sofa, drinking sweet soup prepared by the servant, while browsing her social dia feed.
When she saw a friend’s small video post, her expression changed.
Watching Craig Landers deeply and romantically propose to Leia Quinn, Selena Taylor suddenly threw the bowl to the ground.
Her chest heaved with jealousy in her eyes.
Who was Leia Quinn anyway!
What right did she have to accept Craig Landers’ proposal!
Craig Landers was hers!
He couldn’t marry Leia Quinn!
"Oh dear, Selena, what happened? How did the bowl break?"
Hearing the noise, Mrs. Landers ca downstairs and asked in surprise.
Forcing herself to calm down, Selena Taylor touched her lower abdon, "Sorry, mom, my stomach hurt, and I slipped."
"Your stomach hurts again? Should we get the doctor to check it out?"
Mrs. Landers asked worriedly.
"No need, I’m fine. I just need to rest." Selena Taylor managed a smile.
Mrs. Landers nodded, "That’s good. You’re pregnant, Wright has soone to carry on the family line. Now Craig also has a girlfriend. Once he marries, my two concerns will be resolved."
Upon hearing this, Selena Taylor’s face darkened, "Mom, Craig is one of Sea City’s elite, and Leia Quinn is just a doctor with no family background. Is she good enough for him?"
"Isn’t that true? But since Craig isn’t the heir, his father and I don’t have high demands on him, we only hope he’s happy."
Mrs. Landers wasn’t entirely satisfied with Leia Quinn, but maintained an open mind.
At this point, she received a call from Craig Landers.
"Coming ho for dinner? Bringing your girlfriend too? Okay, I understand."
Mrs. Landers hung up, her face full of joy.
"Craig said he’s bringing his girlfriend over tonight to discuss their wedding. I must get the maid to prepare more dishes."
They’re about to get married!
Selena Taylor’s nails dug deeply into her palm, her face contorting.
She couldn’t let Leia Quinn marry Craig Landers!
Blue Sky Apartnts.
The Hawke couple had taken their two little ones to the old residence.
In the kitchen, Elara Don brewed soup as she watched the steam rise, lost in thought.
Cole Hawke used Damon Hawke’s lineage to threaten her, demanding she cannot marry Damon Hawke.
Did he think she would be subject to his control?
And why should she be?
Was it just a matter of lineage?
Why couldn’t she tell Damon Hawke?
If she told him, and he was no longer recognized as a legitimate heir, wouldn’t that an he wouldn’t qualify to be the leader of Hawke Corporation?
To her, it didn’t matter.
Could she let him give up everything, including his role in the Netherworld Organization, to live an ordinary life with her and their two children?
But was it really that easy?
Could he really live an ordinary life with them?
"What are you thinking about? Why are you daydreaming?"
His arms wrapped around her waist, his breath warm against her ear.
Elara Don returned to her senses, feeling his tender affection calming her restless heart.
She turned to look at the man’s handso face, "Tom, do you trust ?"
Damon Hawke paused and then nodded with a smile, taking her question seriously, "Of course I trust you."
"Good, then let’s break up!"
Damon Hawke: "..."
Because he trusted her, there needed to be a breakup?
Why?
...
Landers family old residence.
It was Leia Quinn’s first ti eting the in-laws, so it was natural to feel nervous.
Fortunately, the Landers were quite open-minded and treated her politely.
Craig Landers’ older brother, Wright Landers, was indifferent but didn’t show dissatisfaction or disdain.
The one who had hostility towards her was Selena Taylor.
Despite Selena Taylor’s smiles, Leia Quinn could always feel her unfriendly gaze whenever she turned away.
She only wanted to keep a respectful distance from such a person.
"Cindy, have so chicken soup. Mom had the maid prepare it specially from a ho-raised chicken."
At the dining table, Craig Landers was very attentive to Leia Quinn.
Leia Quinn thanked him and quietly drank the soup.
"Try this dish too, and this one. They’re all your favorites."
Craig Landers served Leia Quinn more food.
"It’s okay, I’ll help myself."
"Don’t be shy. You can see my parents are easygoing. They’re just hoping I marry you soon and give them a grandson."
"Wayne, that’s enough. Stop it."
"Feeling shy? Look, your face is all red."
"..."
Watching Craig Landers tease Leia Quinn, the two of them filled with sweet affection, Selena Taylor’s expression kept changing, and she accidentally dropped the spoon on the table with a clatter.
