Female Novel
Chapter 340
“Why would you still need time to consider?” Pierre stood up while glaring at Selena.
“Kneel back down!”
He flinched immediately before reverting back to his kneeling position. “Tell me. How long are yougoing to spend considering my proposal?”
“Three to five years, perhaps?”
“Selena!”
“Fine, fine. I’ll stop messing with you.” Selena then reached her hand out to him.
“That’s more like it,” he mumbled. It wasn’t until he put the ring on her that he realized that it didn’tactually fit her. In fact, it was slightly too big for her finger, so it hung loosely on her finger. For amoment, an awkward silence hung in the air.
When Selena saw that, she was pissed off by it. “How dare you propose to me when you don’t evenknow the size of my finger?” She wondered if it was too late to take her word back.
“I know!” Pierre then picked up a petal from the floor to tuck it in between her finger and the ring. “Ifwe do this, the ring won’t come off anymore.”
How Selena wished she could just take off the ring and throw it away!
“Hey, it’s my first time proposing to a woman, so I don’t have experience. I’ll get better next time.”
“How many more times are you going to propose to me?” Selena glared at Pierre. If anyone elsewere to see these two prominent figures in the field of business like this, they would probably thinkthat the proposal was kind of awkward and underwhelming.
“Anyway, weren’t you averse to the idea of marrying me?” Selena gazed at Pierre. Of course, shewas happy when being proposed to, and she would gladly marry him. When she first knew thatPierre was Juniper’s biological father, she made the decision to be with him no matter his choice.Even if he wouldn’t marry her, she was willing to stick with him.
Finally, he was getting serious about it. He took off a necklace made of a red string from his neckwhere a ring was hung. When Selena took a closer look, she noticed that it was the ring she hadonce used to propose to Pierre. Back then, both of them had exposed each other’s secrets, so theproposal failed, and she threw the ring away. She didn’t expect him to keep it on him though.novelbin
Then, Pierre put the ring on himself. “I already thought this through. I will marry you, and I willprotect you and our children.”
“Yeah, our children too.” Selena was tearing up. They’re indeed our children.
“I have to warn you that life with me won’t be easy. However, you have to trust that I will work hardfor both of us.”
“We’ll both work hard. Don’t worry; I won’t become a burden to you.”
Their eyes met, and a smile appeared on both their faces. Then, Pierre heaved a sigh of relief. “It’sfinally over.”
“What is?”
“The proposal.” Apparently, Pierre looked like he was being relieved of a heavy burden. “This issuch a bother. Niall wrote me a few pages worth of speech that he told me to memorize, but Icouldn’t remember a single word.” While Pierre spoke, he took out a few pieces of paper from hispocket. If he could, he would have just read everything off the paper.
Upon witnessing his behavior, Selena was even more furious. “Pierre Fowler! You’re proposing tome, so can’t you take it more seriously? How could you let other people handle the preparations?”
“Why would you say that? I’m being serious about this!”
“You just aren’t!”
Meanwhile, Joaquin was watching them quarrel on the sidelines. The house will be a lot livelier fromnow on, since they might quarrel everyday. Well, it’s better than living in a lifeless house.
After that, Joaquin was sent back to Fowler Residence. Pierre, on the other hand, brought Selenaback to her temporary dwelling. It was an important day for them, so of course they would have sex.After that, Pierre left, as he didn’t want to risk being spotted by dragging out his stay. When Selenawoke up the next morning, Pierre was long gone. Upon opening her eyes, she saw the ring on thebedside table, which prompted her to smile.
