“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 you going 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’t actually fit her. In fact, it was slightly too big for her finger, so it hung loosely on her finger. For a moment, 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 even know 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. “If we 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 else were to see these two prominent figures in the field of business like this, they would probably think that 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, she was happy when being proposed to, and she would gladly marry him. When she first knew that Pierre 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.
