âPlease stop thinking of more ideas! This is already over the top. We canât compete with this!â
âYeah! Youâre the most romantic couple in the world. So, just stop here, will you?â Bobby teased Katherine and Lily. âSee that? If your partners donât meet this standard for surprise, break up with them immediately!â
Katherine and Lily exchanged a smile. âWeâre happy in our relationships, too.â They didnât feel envious, as they were content and happy in their own relationships, which was the best feeling in the world.
While Joelle was overwhelmed with amusement, Michael approached with a box. Inside was another ringâa matching set designed by Adrian.
Then, on the billboard and under the watchful eyes of the entire city, Adrian slowly knelt on one knee in front of Joelle. âJoelle, I know being with me hasnât always been a smooth ride. Over the years, weâve faced highs and lows in our relationship, but thanks to our deep love for each other and the workings of fate, weâve overcome them all. Because of this, Iâm confident we can face whatever challenges the future holdsâtogether. One year ago, I asked you to be my wife, but I want to ask you again. Every year, I want to look back on our journey and recommit to the love weâve built, and to promise you, once more, that I choose youâtoday and always. So, Joelle, will you marry me again?â
Joelle gazed at Adrian. She wanted to rush into his arms, to accept his proposal and hold him tight, but the weight of the publicâs gaze made her hesitate. âIâm not perfect, Adrian. Are you sure about this?â
Ga ln ovels . com fuels your imagination Adrian was momentarily caught off guard by her hesitation, but he understood it all too well. âYou are perfect to me, Joelle. In my eyes, you are the best wife and the best mother. I hope you see how incredible you are. How you were an orchestra prodigy and won the highest award at fourteen. How smart and brave you were to marry me with all your heart and then leave me just as decisively when I was being a jerk. You are selfless, a mother who would give everything for our children, even your life. Every day with you fills me with pride and gratitude, Joelle, and I couldnât ask for more.â
Watching the touching scene, the viewers were moved to tears. Since Joelle had jumped off the building, public criticism against her had significantly decreased. Now, seeing the proposal, the public was more convinced of her good character.
Adrianâs words filled Joelleâs heart with utter happiness, a feeling she hadnât experienced in years.
âYes, Adrian. Iâll marry you again.â
Adrianâs declaration of love was a spectacle that captured the entire nationâs attention. Every channel on TV broadcasted his grand gesture, making it impossible for even those indifferent to Joelle to avoid witnessing his devotion. The event wasnât confined to television alone; it spanned phones, outdoor billboards, and lit up every conceivable screen powered by electricity, leaving the entire city bathed in the news of his love.
As Fred, Gracie, and Dunn stepped out of the building, the LED backdrop behind them illuminated dramatically. All three paused and turned, looking up at the dazzling display on the rooftop above.
âDunn, letâs head home,â Gracie called out, breaking the momentary trance.
Dunn hesitated, then hurried to catch up with Gracie. Meanwhile, Leah and Aurora arrived at the scene. Aurora stepped out of the car, her eyes wide with wonder.
