Chapitre 512: They're Alive

"Vincent wanted to settle a score with Samuel," John replied. He added, "I will make him pay for what he has done to you. You would not have been caught in our fight if I had known his plan. I'm sorry, Carmen." 

John brought Carmen's hand to his lips and placed a soft kiss. Carmen, who listens eagerly, senses the sincerity in his voice. Maybe John is genuinely in love with her, she thought.

"John, I do not fully comprehend everything going on now, but please be careful."

With what Carmen said to him, John saw a glimmer of hope. Maybe it was the best opportunity, so he replied, "I will. When everything is over, please marry me."

John let go of Carmen's hand and reached for his back pocket. Carmen gasped when she realized what was in John's hand.

"I wanted to propose properly in front of your family and mine."
