From centuries ago, marriage proposals had been done by the male partner in the relationship.
Furthermore, it was a top-class man like Amos. If other women had been arranged to have a wedding with Amos this way, they would probably wake up from their dreams smiling.
However, Eudora blamed herself for not proposing to Amos.
No one understood her at that moment.
However, Amos laughed joyfully when he heard the answer, as though he had uncovered a treasure.
âAre you going to propose now?â Amos asked in a low voice.
Eudora frowned. âI wanted to propose now, but I didnât prepare anything! I donât have a ring, neither do I have flowers. No, no, give me an hour, Iâm going to prepareâ¦â
âThereâs no need!â Amos glanced at Clint, who was standing behind him.
Clint immediately went forward and handed Eudora the diamond ring that had been prepared for the wedding. He also passed a bouquet of roses to her.
Eudora was disgusted when she saw the red roses.
âI need blue roses!â
Red roses were for women, and Amos was a man. Naturally, he needed something different.
Amos played along with her antics as he would usually, âBlue it is then. Bring them here at once.â
Clint was in disbelief as he thought to himself, âYou two should just mess around with each other if you want to. Please donât involve me.â
Fortunately, there were a lot of flowers on the scene and all kinds of roses had been prepared, many of which had been sent over from abroad.
Clint was secretly glad that he had not been complacent before. Otherwise, he would have been extremely busy at this moment!
He quickly went to find some blue roses and asked someone to pack them up in haste. A moment later, a bunch of requested flowers was delivered to Eudoraâs hands.
Eudora was quite bold in the beginning, but she started to feel a little embarrassed as the critical moment approached.
Her face was flushed red, and she stammered, âI⦠Iâ¦â
The manâs deep voice, filled with warmth and assurance, rang in her ears. âYes, Iâm here. Donât be afraid, Eudoraâ¦â
The simple words almost made her cry. Everything that she had gone through with Amos replayed in her mind like a movie.
Every single one of them made her tear up.
Eudora sniffed and let go of Amosâ hand. She knelt on one knee and passed the flowers to his hand.
âAmos Granger, I want to be with you, no matter how the world changes, forever together. Will you marry me?â
Amos was shocked. She was proposing for real. He had thought that she was just joking around, but he did not expect that she wanted to propose to him in such a serious manner.
Moreover, she was even doing it like a man, kneeling on one kneeâ¦
Tina, Thea, Clint, and the others who stood aside all covered their faces with their hands, not daring to watch them.
Tina muttered in a low voice, âThis is bad. Maybe Eudora has never seen people getting married before. She doesnât know that proposals were supposed to be done by the man.â
Thea didnât think so. âNo way?â
Harley reached out to knock on the top of Theaâs head. âYouâre really an idiot. How could Eudora not know that? Sheâs making up for the past!â
He suddenly teared up.
âAmosâ efforts have finally paid off!â
Thea agreed with him, âHoney, youâre awesome.â
Tina and Clint were at a loss for words.
Christopher could not help but mutter, âItâll be fine as long as the flowers are accepted. Isnât it too strange though, to wear a ring?â
Everyone nodded in agreement.
âOh, you fools!â Only Harley thought differently. Amos was now Eudoraâs fanboy. Apart from asking him to dress up like a woman and dancing on the street, Harley felt anything that was done by Eudora would be acceptable for Amos!
As expected, Amos reached out to catch the bunch of flowers and positioned his fingers right in front of Eudora.
âI do!â
Everyone fell into shock.
Eudoraâs eyes lit up. She took the diamond ring and put it on Amosâ finger.
Wait a minuteâ¦
Everyone looked at the ring with bright eyes. Wasnât the ring⦠meant for the wife?â
What did Eudora mean? Did she actually put the wifeâs ring on Amos? Was she trying to rebel? However, Amosâ face was filled with excitement. Had he gone mad?
Clint could not help but remind her, âMrs. Granger, the ring is the wrong!â
Eudora shook her head. âItâs the right one!â
Only after the ceremony was completed, did she stand up and look at the crowd with a smile. âI hereby announce that from now on, I will protect Amos and our child well. I will definitely not allow him to suffer any more harm!â
Everyone was confused. This announcement shouldâve been made by Amos, right?
Clint looked at Amos with confusion. âUhâ¦â
Amos smiled and agreed, âItâs a great honor for me!â
Everybody gave up and said, âAs long as you guys are happy.â
â¦
The proposal that Eudora had cared about so much, was finally completed, and the real wedding was about to begin. Gordon took Eudoraâs hand and placed it onto Amosâ hand.
Not only that, when Eudora entered the wedding hall, she discovered that the flower girl and page boy were actually Juju and Sugar Bun.
Juju was wearing a white fairy dress while Sugar Bun was wearing a tailored suit. The two cute little children looked just like Romeo and Juliet.
Sugar Bun was smiling very brightly when he saw Eudora. He seemed very excited and he chattered non-stop as he looked at Eudora.
Eudora looked at the two little children and the tall man beside her. Her heart had finally settled down.
After going round and round, she had finally came to this point.
She was satisfied.
At this moment, Eudora and her family were happy and harmonious on the stage, but she didnât know that someone was looking at them with cold eyes in the audience.
The personâs lips curled into an evil smile as they hid in the crowd.
â¦
The wedding drained their energy completely. Eudora was so tired that she was going to faint.
Since Amos was now the head of the Granger family, the wedding house was set in the old Granger manor.
However, when she went back and looked at the antique buildings, Eudora always felt that it was not as good as the house in Clearwater Bay where they used to live.
Home was supposed to be a place for the whole family to spend their time in. There were already memories made there, so it couldnât compare to anywhere else.
âBut thereâs nothing I can do!â Eudora told herself quietly.
This place would be the place for her to go through the ups and downs for the rest of her life. No matter what, she had to accept it.
At this moment, the door was opened and Amos approached her.
Tonight⦠would be the night of their wedding!
Although they had been a couple for a long time, it was different that day, and for some reason, they felt different. They put on the matching pajamas that had been prepared by the Granger familyâs traditions.
Both of them looked equally stunning, complimenting each other.
Eudora felt that her heart thumping as Amos walked towards her.
His deep voice rang in her ears, âEveryone else in the house is asleep. Letâs hurryâ¦â
Eudoraâs face was a little hot. âWhatâs the rush?â
âWhy shouldnât we rush? Havenât you always wanted it?â
Eudora replied in confusion, âWhen did I want it?â
âDonât you want it?â Amos questioned with a smile.
Eudora blushed and closed her eyes obediently. However, what she had imagined did not come. Instead, she felt Amos pulling her up.
âThe car is ready. Wesley is waiting outside with the children. Letâs go back to Clearwater Bay now.â
Eudora was shocked, âHuh???â
