Chapitre 98: [98 - The Proposal]

"Eli -" she called him by his nickname but Elijah did not look surprised until she asked, "Will you marry me?"

At first Elijah assumed that he must have not heard properly, he must have misunderstood the question that she wanted to ask. Perhaps, she was asking him about what he had brought for her, or why did he wake her up, or what was it that was smelling so delicious.

She certainly did not ask him to marry her, now did she? Of course not, there was no way that she would ask that question so early in their relationship. Agreed that they were quite close to each other and shared almost everything with each other but that is how the couples do right? This is how a relationship is.

Elijah shook his head, his lips curved up in a smile of disbelief that also reflected in his eyes, "What?" he asked followed by a hesitant chuckle, "What did you say?" he wanted to confirm that he did mishear her and there was something else that she wanted to ask him.
