Chapter 28 Dead Loss âHello, my name is Madeline Tuffin. You can call me Ms. Tuffin Anna is still young and immature.
Please take good care of her in the future. Madeline was obsessed with looks. As soon as she saw Julian, she felt that he and Annalise were a match made in heaven âHi, Ms. Tuffin Julian greeted âAll right. Letâs go in together.â Madeline smiled Hearing Julian calling her Ms. Tuffin, Madeline had a better impression of him She was an artist and had always been very sensitive about a personâs temperament.
Hence, she could tell at a glance that Julian was from an extraordinary background.
The noble aura that his body exuded was ingrained in his bones; formal wear could not simulate such an Žura A person of extraordinary birth could be so humble and polite without a trace of arrogance.
This, again, won the favor of Madeline.
Since Annalise was single now, Madeline decided to observe Julian first. If he was really a decent person, she could create opportunities for them.
As they were walking toward the lobby, they suddenly heard a whooping noise coming from above.
Everyone subconsciously looked up and saw a helicopter coming.
A banner decorated with colored lightbulbs was dropped from the helicopter. It read âAbigail, will you marry me?â
The colored lightbulbs were all heart-shaped. Together, they looked festive and sweet.
Immediately afterward, numerous drones came from all directions in the sky.
The drones changed into all kinds of colors â purple, red, blue, and pink..
In the end, they formed a heart shape, and then a confession: âAbigail, I love you. Please marry me.â
âWow! Who is it?â People started talking about it.
âI didnât hear that Abigail Barton has a boyfriend.â
âItâs not necessarily her boyfriend. She has so many admirers.â
âWhy do I think itâs Benjamin Quigley?â
âNonsense. Benjamin Quigley is Annalise Bartonâs boyfriend.â
âPfft! How could Benjamin keep loving a bumpkin like Annalise? He probably only thought of her as a dummy and a cute country girl, which made him feel interested in her for a brief moment. Heâll eventually grow to dislike her after his initial interest fades.â
âYouâre right.â
âLook! Someoneâs coming down. Who is it?â
From the helicopter, a man in a suit walked down the stairs.
âHeâs so handsome! Heâs even more handsome than Benjamin Quigley!â someone exclaimed.
âWho is that?â
âI donât know him. Heâs probably not from Horington â
âThen, where is he from?â
âLook, the Barton familyâs car is here,â another person exclaimed.
Slowly, a Rolls-Royce pulled over and stopped in front of the hotelâs entrance.
Kent handed the car key to the valet, who ran over, and Abigail got out of the car from the backseat.
She wore a long white dress and looked as beautiful as a fairy descended from heaven.
Before she arrived, she had already seen the helicopter and drones in the sky.
It was a nice surprise, and she liked it very much. It was amazing enough, and it was enough to embarrass Annalise.
With her around, she would never give Annalise a chance to shine.
At the same time, Alexander also saw Abigail.
He felt that she had good taste and was glad that she did not disappoint him.
The long white dress was gorgeous. Her jewelry and bag were also well matched. Besides that, her hair was also done nicely, which improved her temperament a lot.
Moments later, he walked up to her with roses in his hand, knelt on one knee, and smiled gently.
âAbigail, will you marry me?â
âAhh! This is so romantic!â
âIâm so jealous. Why does Abigail Barton have so many admirers?â
âAll we can do is feel envious. After all, Abigail is too outstanding. Sheâs already a famous doctor at such a young age, and Moonlight Group is dealing with medicine. Sheâs now accumulating knowledge in school while getting hands-on experience in the hospital. In the future, sheâll take over Moonlight Group. She has a bright future in front of her!â
âBut from what Iâve heard, Moonlight Group is the property Annaliseâs deceased mother left behind for her.â âStop dreaming. Even if the Barton family really lets her inherit Moonlight Group, does she have the ability to manage it? Sheâs just a bumpkin from the countryside. She should never think about running a company.â
âThatâs true. By the way, who is this man?â
âI donât know.â
âWill Abigail accept his proposal?â
âDefinitely not. I heard that Abigail likes Benjamin.â
Coincidentally, Benjamin happened to be standing in the crowd. When he heard that Abigail liked him, he could not help but raise his chin.
The reason he went there that day was to piss Annalise off.
Annalise humiliated him the other day, and he would not let the matter slide so easily.
Therefore, after much consideration, he decided to attend the charity gala to show off his love for Abigail and piss Annalise off.
Since there was no way to make up with Annalise, he did not care if his actions would embarrass her or not anymore.
He texted her the previous day, asking if she would attend the charity gala, and she replied that she would be there at seven oâclock.
Little did he know that he would witness an affluent playboy proposing to Abigail as soon as he arrived.
âHa! Which family is this playboy from? Doesnât he know that Abigail is my woman? Heâs just making a fool out of himself,â he thought.
He had completely forgotten about how he had made a fool of himself previously.
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Abigail take the rose from Alexanderâs hand with a smile on her face, and she answered sweetly, âI do!â
Her response caught Benjamin by surprise.
âWhat? What did I just see? This must be a hallucination!â he exclaimed mentally.
Instantaneously, he rubbed his eyes, only to see her take the flowers and wrap her arms around the neck of the man who had proposed to her.
âThatâs impossible!â Benjamin pinched his thigh hard.
âOuch! It hurts. Everything in front of me is true. Abigail really accepted another manâs proposal,â he mused.
âTsk.â At that moment, Annalise was standing next to the hotel entrance with Julian and Madeline.
Seeing that Abigail had accepted Alexanderâs proposal, she gave a contemptuous snort.
âWhat a scene! The Barton family is not short of money, and Abigail has been well-pampered since she was a child. Does she need to be so snobby? Seeing that Benjamin was the heir of the Quigley family, she snatched him away from me, regardless of the fact that he was my boyfriend. When she realized that Julian wasnât an old man who required a wheelchair like the rumors claimed, she took advantage of the opportunity when we had a meal together to drug Julianâs wine, even when she knew that he and I had registered our marriage. Now that she knows she has no chance of snatching Julian away from me, she quickly accepts Alexander Parks. How dare someone like this feel that herself is pure and noble and no oneâs worthy of her?â she wondered.
âMs. Tuffin, letâs go in,â Annalise said.
âOkay. In the future, whoever wants to propose to you has to prepare a proposal thatâs more romantic than this. Otherwise, I wonât agree to it,â uttered Madeline.
At the side, Julian silently noted down Madelineâs request.
He probably did not have a chance to prepare a proposal ceremony, but he would definitely hold an extravagant wedding ceremony.
Soon, the three of them walked inside, and Benjamin saw Annalise at a glance.
