章節 222: A Proper Proposal

Daphne suddenly heard the swell of violins. She turned around to see a group of musicians that had struck up a romantic tune. They were noticeably not looking in her direction, making it seem like they had simply decided to practice at this time, at this place. 

Daphne narrowed her eyes. Did the castle even house musicians?  She took a closer look and realized there were flower petals scattered all over the garden. 

"Were they there the whole time?" Daphne wondered, pointing to them instead of answering Atticus's question. "And I think the servants forgot to sweep the courtyard. It's very messy." 

Atticus wanted to slap himself― he had pulled out all the stops to make the proposal a romantic event, but it seemed to be distracting his wife instead!
