She suddenly stood up and followed the three brothers out the door to investigate, only to find a row of vehicles parked at the entrance, with musicians already playing on the nearby road.
As the slowly opening door revealed a handso man, it turned out to be William Foster in a wheelchair.
Beside him were his two old friends, Arthur Davis and Zam.
Clara Bennett gasped, staring in shock at everything outside the door.
William Foster!
Why would he co?
What the hell is he up to?
Clara’s mind was filled with doubt and unease, unable to comprehend why this mysterious man would suddenly appear at her doorstep.
What on earth is inside these boxes?
They were arranged neatly and mysteriously, seemingly harboring so unfathomable secrets.
Jas Bennett noticed that William Foster’s face was not relaxed at all; instead, his eyebrows were tightly knitted.
He seed sowhat puzzled about this unfamiliar visitor because such a figure had never appeared in the Foster family’s territory.
As for that attendant Zam, since his attention was entirely focused on his sister that night, he hadn’t rembered much about this person either.
So he slowly approached the visitor and asked coldly with suspicion, "May I ask who this distinguished guest is, visiting my humble abode?"
Hearing the other party bluntly ask about his identity, William Foster offered a friendly smile in response and then politely introduced himself, "Hello, might this be the renowned Mr. Bennett? Allow to introduce myself, I am the youngest son of the Foster family, ranked ninth in the family. My visit here is not accidental, but with a special purpose. That is, I hope to gain the affection of your sister and am here to propose marriage. I wish to express my sincere desire to marry your sister through this extrely generous and respectful gift to your family."
As his words settled, the scene beca even more bustling.
The people from those luxurious vehicles stepped out one by one, each holding a large, heavy box.
These boxes were carefully placed on the ground and quickly ford a grand and sprawling procession.
Redwood boxes were closely connected one after another, seemingly stretching several miles.
This spectacle was truly astounding, the magnificent scene of ten miles of red decorations presenting itself vividly, almost endless to the eye.
Facing such a sudden and grandiose marriage proposal, Clara Bennett was at a loss for how to react best for a mont.
Her gaze fell on those brightly colored red items, and she couldn’t help but feel slightly dizzy, almost losing her footing.
Originally, she thought that today both parties would just sit down and discuss the marriage contract simply!
Who would have thought she’d be shocked by such a bold strategy?
Just a mont ago, she clearly rembered the words William Foster said last night: Tomorrow, I’ll give you a special surprise.
So this is that so-called "surprise"!
But to be honest, for Clara right now, this isn’t so much a surprise as it is an unexpected shock!
Regretting not asking more details last night, Clara felt very remorseful and self-blaming.
If only she had insisted on a few more words back then...
Then at least she could’ve been ntally prepared beforehand, instead of feeling completely at a loss now?
At this mont, various complex emotions lingered in Clara’s mind to the extent that they were indescribable by words.
And at this mont, it wasn’t only her feeling shocked and surprised; even the other Bennett brothers present were just as bewildered by what was happening before them.
Their facial expressions turned extrely serious and grim, as if covered by dark clouds.
Upon hearing William Foster’s candid declaration of his true intention, the normally calm and composed Jas Bennett could no longer suppress his inner anger, clenching his fists tightly, with his eyes burning with a blazing fire.
"You bastard, you actually have the guts to co here? I absolutely won’t let you off!"
He roared loudly, then suddenly took several steps forward, intending to pounce directly at the provocateur in front of him.
Yet, at this critical mont, a figure quickly rushed between the two, blocking the extrely angry Jas Bennett.
Seeing this, Clara’s heart suddenly raced faster.
As a professional bodyguard, Arthur Davis’s skills are far above ordinary.
Clara knew this well, understanding that if her brother and Arthur Davis really got into a fight, her brother would suffer as Arthur was a professionally trained expert.
"Big brother, don’t be like this!"
Clara quickly stepped forward and grabbed Jas Bennett’s arm, her voice filled with urgency and concern.
She knew that if she was not careful, things could spiral out of control.
Although his arm was grabbed, Jas Bennett’s expression remained as stern as steel.
Yet he imdiately reacted, protecting Clara behind him as if building a shield for her, saying in a low voice, "Go back."
Clara felt a bit embarrassed, unsure how to persuade her brother, "Big brother..."
William Foster heard her voice and interrupted her before she could continue, maintaining a smile on his face, "Good morning, Clara."
Facing the uninvited guest’s attitude, Clara couldn’t help but glare at him and then frowned, asking, "What are you doing? What exactly do you want by showing up at our house so early today?"
William Foster kept his courteous smile, but his answer was very succinct: "Here to propose."
Those few words were enough to ignite the tense atmosphere hanging in the air.
This statent directly infuriated Charles Bennett standing beside him, making him almost lose control: "I’ll kill you, you bastard!"
Rage welled up from his heart, almost ready to burst out.
Having just cald down his eldest brother’s emotions, Clara now needed to turn to another urgent side.
Clara hurriedly explained to her third brother, "Third brother, calm down. Let’s talk this out, don’t get physical."
Edward Bennett looked ahead with a stern face, showing no willingness to relent: "What’s there to talk about? This guy dares to show up looking for trouble; I see he’s bored of living, ready to be beaten out!"
Ever since they learned that the person who had bullied Clara was none other than the William Foster standing before them, how could the three brothers possibly sit idly by?
Not to ntion he dared to bring a huge pile of gifts and swaggeringly visit, wasn’t this deliberately causing trouble!
Regarding this way of proposing, the Bennett brothers’ view could simply be described as despicable and shaless.
Seeing the increasingly tense atmosphere around, William Foster showed an expression of surprise, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Clara, your family reacts so strongly against the matter between you and ; shouldn’t you have inford in advance?"
Jas Bennett, hearing this, beca even more furious, angrily reprimanding the other party.
