Unmasking Mrs. Newton's Secret Identities novel Chapter 1460

"I appreciate your concern, Madam Newton and Mr. Adrian, but I believe you're both overthinking this. I met Ms. Gabin while we were abroad, and as you know, I came on this show specifically for her. I've given it a lot of thought, and I'm ready to take this step," Hobart said, his optimism shining through.

With such genuine sincerity, no one dared to disrupt the moment.

Priscilla shot Adrian a frantic look, silently urging him to speak up.

However, Adrian kept his gaze lowered. He remained lost in his own thoughts, completely oblivious to her signals.

"I'm all for it. The first round of funding has wrapped up, so this is the perfect time for me to kick back," Jenson said, standing up.

Stretching lazily, he gave Hobart a cheeky wink.

"See? That's just how generous I am," Jenson thought to himself.

Adrian stayed silent, shooting him a sharp glare.

"Thanks," Hobart said, smiling knowingly.

"We're here to help, so just let us know what you need," Chandler added, offering his support as well.

Everyone except Priscilla and Adrian nodded in agreement, eager to show their enthusiasm.

After a moment, Adrian tucked away his tablet and stood up.

Priscilla's excitement surged, believing he was finally stepping up.

But then she heard him coldly say, "A virtuous woman deserves a gentleman's affection. In Cathayan culture, we've always valued helping others. If you need those balloons for decoration, just leave it to me."

With that, Adrian picked up his tablet and headed upstairs.

Priscilla was furious, nearly gasping for breath.

…

At 8:00 pm, a housekeeper guided Ursula into the garden.

The entire space was transformed, filled with vibrant flowers, twinkling lights, and enchanting music. Every corner radiated a romantic and heartfelt atmosphere.

Moments later, Hobart approached her, holding a beautiful bouquet of roses. "Ursula, will you be my girlfriend?" he asked softly.

"Say yes! Say yes!" Cheryl exclaimed; she was the first to cheer enthusiastically.

Adrian stood nearby, embodying the image of a noble gentleman, but his icy demeanor overshadowed the moment.
