Bab 296: Show of affection

Back in the ballroom, the remaining guests were leaving, including the newly engaged couple. Remaining in the hallway were the organizers and the staff, cleaning and packing up the place.

Alex guided Dani to their waiting car, both tired but ecstatic of the success of the night. He pulled her close to him, wanting to give her comfort by placing her in his embrace.

"I still don't get it. Why did you feel the need to propose?" She finally voiced out after a very long silence inside the car.

She stared at the beautiful ring in her hand. For him to give her something that belonged to his Nanna was an honor. She knew how much he loved and respected his Nanna's wishes.

The ring could only symbolize his eternal love for her. She suddenly felt a slight pressure from the way things were moving. She believed it would have been better if they had talked about marriage first.
