Carla saw the handsome man walking among the balloons. Standing still as a rock, her heart began to pound so fast.
The man looked somewhat familiar to her. She was in awe the moment she laid her eyes on him.
He looked like the Prince Charming from a fairy tale!
Carla was fascinated by his smile.
"How was the chocolate?" Terence asked.
He looked deep into her eyes with a gentle smile.
Carla nodded, gave the other candy to him and replied, "You should taste it. It is really good!"
Terence moved towards her and gave the pink balloon to her. "I know. Because I had asked them to make it extra special for you," he replied with a grin.
Carla's jaw widened as she took the balloon from his hand. "Really?" she asked in surprise.
'Wait a moment! What did he say?
I need to chill out for a second!
No wonder those fireworks were going off all the way as I came here.
So...
Terence arranged all those things for me?
So it means that the rich guy was Terence?' she mused.
When Carla came to her senses, she saw a group of people approaching them with balloons in their hands. They all expressed their happiness with vibrant smiles on their faces.
'So was it Terence who arranged this party for me? The party that caused a sensation in the entire city!' she thought to herself. Seeing the surprised look on her face, Terence grinned widely.
"Carla, I'm sorry. I promised you that I would give you a big proposal when we got back here. I should have done it earlier. But, whenever I had the thought of arranging a proposal party for you, I planned to make it perfect," Terence said. Heaving a sigh, he looked at Carla.
Theo had designed the proposal party for a long time. But Terence wasn't satisfied with it, so he had to keep holding it off.
Because he desired to give her the most extravagant and romantic proposal.
When Carla noticed that a lot of people were standing around her with big smiles on their faces, she blushed, casting her eyes down.
The scene was being broadcast live to a huge crowd gathered there.
"Carla, thank you for coming into my life. I'm grateful that I met you for the first time in BH City that evening. You not only saved my life but also gave me some of the best memories in the world!" Terence said.
Pausing for a second, Terence continued, "You entered my life when I was going through many difficulties. You were the one who had faith in me that I would overcome all those problems. When I was lost and in doubt, you were the one who comforted me in the dark. I'm sure that you will be the only woman for the rest of my life."
With his eyes glued on Carla, he then muted for a second and continued, "Carla, Will you marry me"?
Terence knelt on the ground with a large bouquet of red roses that he got from the Rainer.
The woman stood dumbfounded when she saw Terence kneeling on the floor. She broke out in a cold sweat. Heaving a sigh, she wiped off the sweat of her forehead and moved forward. "Terence, please get up," Carla pleaded.
"If you say yes, I will get up." Furrowing his eyebrows, he stared at her with a gentle smile.
Carla heaved a sigh and gazed at him and the flowers. She suddenly realized that he was more handsome than usual.
But Carla didn't rush to answer him. She wanted him to kneel for a while longer as she was embracing that beautiful moment and didn't want it to end so soon.
She wanted that moment to last forever.
But in a short time, she was taken aback by the scream of the people watching.
"Lady, do you want to accept him or not? If you wish to refuse his proposal, we are waiting to marry him!"
"He is a worthy prince in JA City! You cannot put him down!"
"Alas. I've had a huge crush on Mr. Terence for ten years! It is disheartening for me to see him propose to you..."
Carla just let him kneel on the floor for one minute, but they already clenched their fists in anger.
Carla cast her eyes on Terence, who was smiling at her with the bouquet in his hands.
Terence put his arms around her shoulder and softly whispered, "Babe, please don't cry. If you have any doubts, you can ask me anytime you want, even after our marriage."
"Hubby..."
"Huh?"
"Hubby."
"Yes?"
"Hubby!"
"My dear wife!"
Carla could not control the tears rolling down her cheeks. "Thank you so much for bearing with me. And I know that you always take good care of Sean. I'm grateful for everything you have done for me."
Meantime, Theo burst into tears as he watched the scene through the drone. "Oh god, that's so touching and sweet! Can you both hug and kiss each other?
I really can't resist this!"
Theo fanned his hand on his eyes, trying to control his tears. At that same moment, he longed to get married too!
Inside the square.
Listening to what Carla said, Terence burst into laughter with his eyes sparkling. He released her arms, bent over and planted a loving kiss on her lips. "My dear, it's okay. You don't need to thank me."
He did all those things for her because he loved her.
He was madly in love with Carla that he couldn't wait any longer to marry her.
"All right, babe. Are you feeling hungry? Let's have dinner."
Terence put his arms around her and walked towards the Rolls-Royce parked along the road.
When it was all over, Theo raised and shouted to the crowd behind him, "Mission accomplished! Mr. Terence booked a restaurant to treat us to dinner. Let's go!"
