Female Novel
Chapter 903
Karl caught a glimpse of her and he stood up, pulling the seat for her.
Juanita sat down, "I'm sorry I'm late. Something came up and I need to deal with it."
"It's okay. In the past it has always been you waiting for me." Karl said softly. Yes, for the past four longnovelbin
years, he knew that she had been waiting for him, and he had made her wait too long.
Juanita looked up and smiled awkwardly.
It had been two months again, and she had cut her hair short, and she looked lively and cute.
Her delicate features and dark pupils were shining with a crystal light.
Karl had a close look at her, and she looked a little like the way she was in the past.
"Wow, you get so much delicious food. I'll get fat for this dinner."
Juanita smiled, revealing two sweet dimples.
"It's okay. You've got thinner again, and you should eat more."
Karl pushed the plate toward her.
"Yes?" Juanita touched her cheek, "Thinner? Wow, you don't know how busy the municipal government
can be. There are endless things to deal with every day. It's all just a bunch of chicken and egg stuff.
I've been making so many mistakes lately, and I think I'm going to lose my job." Juanita complained as
she began to eat.
"Oh, the current governor, filling in for your father, is also your father's student. How dare he to scold
you?" Karl made fun of it.
"It's so annoying. I want to quit even if he doesn’t want to kick me out. I really don't want to do this job
anymore. I'm not the social type either." Juanita shook her head and laughed bitterly.
She still missed the old days when she worked in Khebury. She was happy and carefree, and nobody
would be fighting for power at all.
"You can resign." Karl took a velvet box out of his suit pocket.
He opened it, and inside was a large diamond ring, shining under the spotlight.
He gently pushed it in front of her, "Let's get married and I'll take care of you."
Juanita held the fork in her hand and suddenly gave a lurch. Her hand was a little stiff, a little shaky,
and almost unsteady.
"I'm sorry for making you wait for me so long." Karl looked at her, as if he was apologizing.
Over the years, he must thank her for her silent companionship, her dedication, and her understanding.
The wedding, in fact, had long been prepared, and the two families had exchanged gift lists long ago.
They even got them a house for their life after the wedding, which was a secluded mid-mountain villa.
Everything was ready and all that was needed was just a nod from Juanita.
He knew in his heart that all these years, it was Juanita who found all kinds of excuses to help him out.
Juanita was pressured by both sides, but she suffered in silence.
Juanita's heart trembled. The man in front of her was much more mature than the boy in her memory
and was much more charming.
She looked up at him and was almost dumbfounded. No matter how long it had been, every time she
saw him, she just couldn't help but feel her heart banging and thumping.
The fork in her hand, finally, slipped off to the table.
Her hand stayed awkwardly in mid-air. She didn't know whether she should put it down or take the ring.
She simply loved him and had been waiting for him, waiting for him to say the words himself.
She had been waiting too long. It had been so long that she felt increasingly afraid to see him. She was
afraid that once she saw him, she could no longer wait.
Karl could see her embarrassment.
He tenderly reached out and gently took her hand and took out the ring. Tenderly, he put it on her.
She was a good woman and worthy of his life.
The moment he put the ring on her.
Her tears slipped down her cheeks, silently and quietly.
