This was probably a spiritual match.
Minerva thought that although she wouldn't know what would happen in the future, as long as the two of them were together, she would be grateful.
She shut her eyes and wrapped her arms around Maddox's neck. However, he pulled her hand down and held on to her fingers tightly.
Tticked by, and she was gradually lost in her thoughts. Her body laid softly in his embrace.
There was a sudden chill between her fingers.
She was stunned on the spot. She felt the ice-cold sensation gradually making its way up into the middle of her finger.
She suddenly cto her senses and pushed him away, lowering her head.
She saw that he was putting on a diamond ring on her finger.
"You..." "What's going on?" She stuttered as she stared in shock at the diamond ring, which was almost pushed onto her finger.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter Maddox was pushed away, he held her wrist with his other hand. He moved gently and carefully put on the diamond ring on her finger properly.
The diamond ring was dazzling and it shone under the moonlight.
"What? When did you buy it?" Minerva couldn't help but ask as she stared at the diamond ring on her finger.
"Do you like it?" He did not answer her question. Instead, he held her hand and gently kissed it.
She didn't answer him. She merely stared into his eyes and asked, "When did you buy it?" He chuckled. "Why are you asking this? You're not satisfied?" Minerva shook her head.
She was not dissatisfied. More importantly, she wanted to know when he bought this ring for her. However, he seemed as if he did not want to reveal it.
What's more, the meaning behind giving her a diamond ring...
"How could you... suddenly cup with the idea of givinga diamond ring? I..." Maddox leaned over to pinch her chin. His voice was hoarse.
"Don't you know that I'm proposing to you?" Hearing this, Minerva's face flushed red. She couldn't help but bite her lip. Of course, she knew that gifting her a diamond ring was an indication of a marriage proposal, but... Would this be a little too perfunctory? Was there no other ceremony? However, he did not give her the chance to react. He bent down and pressed his lips against her ear.
"Will you marry me?" Minerva was frozen on the spot.
They were still quarreling in the afternoon. A few days ago, they were still giving each other the cold shoulder.
Who would have known that he would propose to her on this night? She couldn't even understand what this man was trying to do.
She blinked, and her red lips twitched. Before she could say anything, Maddox uttered, "If you don't say anything. Then, I'll take it as a yes." "What?" She widened her eyes in surprise. "When did I agree..." "Humph." He chuckled. "So you don't agree?" "I..." Minerva stuttered.
She didn't mean to refuse. She glared at the man in front of her and huffed, "Is this how you propose to me? Why do I feel like this is not a proposal, but you are forcingto marry you?" His eyes were dazzling in the night, sharp and filled with satisfying joy. He pinched her chin and forced her to look up at him.
"What's wrong withforcing you? Can't I force you? Even if you don't agree now, I'll personally abduct you to the wedding ceremony if I have to." Minerva's pupils constricted in the face of such a domineering and fierce man. Moments later, her aura weakened. Her face flushed red, and she complained in embarrassment, "Who proposes like you? You don't even say anything, and you just shove the ring at me!" Hearing this, Maddox was a little taken aback.
"This is my first marriage proposal." She was dumbfounded for a moment. She felt as if her heart had jolted.
"You..." "I have no experience in proposing." She gritted her teeth and glared at him.
"You're dead if you have the experience." "That's why," Maddox leaned over and rubbed his head against her fair neck. "Whether you agree or not, there will be a wedding next month. Don't forget that when you were abroad, you also acquiesced." When it cto what happened abroad, Minerva recalled that he had suddenly taken her to the airport, and then she met with the Dormer family.
Back then, he announced in front of the Dormer family that they would hold the wedding the following month.
At that time, Minerva only thought that it was a joke. She did not expect... Maddox was actually serious about it. She was a little surprised.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I, I thought you were just joking. After all..." After all, she was the one who took the initiative, and Maddox merely cooperated with her. He was taking her side.
But now, she was puzzled as he actually planned a wedding for them in a month. Before she was ready, he had already forced the ring on her, and then the wedding was about to be held. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but cast a worried glance at him. "Next month is around the corner. What do you mean by the wedding will be held in a month? Is it the starting of the month or the end of the month?" Hearing this, Maddox raised his eyebrows. "Are you in a hurry?" Minerva blushed. Gnashing her teeth, she said, "Who's in a hurry? I'm just worried that the tis not enough. Moreover... I wasn't really mentally prepared either." "You've already been married once. It's just another wedding. What do you need to prepare for it, huh?" The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this matter was a little sloppy. Hence, she coughed softly, "Letthink about it again." After that, regardless of his reaction, she pushed him away directly and ran into the room.
After entering the house, Minerva went to find a nightgown and put it on. Her shirt collar was wet by Maddox's hair just now, and she felt uncomfortable.
As she hid in the bathroom to change her clothes, she felt her fingers he tremble a little.
She had been m buckling up her button for stnow. She could only force herself to calm down and fasten the buttons seriously. However, her fingers were trembling so much that she was still unable to fasten her buttons properly.
After a long while, she looked at her reflection in the mirror helplessly.
With a beaming face and languid eyes, she was obviously nervous and shy.
"Minerva, are you really that useless?" She despised herself in her heart, then took a deep breath, bent down, turned on the faucet and splashed a handful of water on her face. She closed her eyes and tapped her cheeks.
After a long while, the heat on her face gradually receded. The cold water calmed her down a lot. Minerva covered her face and looked at herself in the mirror.
"It's nothing, it's just a marriage proposal. You have to be steady."
"These were things that you have experienced before. Even if it's a wedding, there was nothing to be afraid of After all... A wedding was just a formality. What really matters was how both of us are going to spend our upcoming days." After comforting herself, Minerva lowered her head and buttoned up her pajamas. Then, she pushed open the door and walked out.
