Chapter 2245
Night of Destiny
Josephine thought about it and believed it had to be something Ethan had arranged. She nodded.
âSure!â
Subsequently, the clerks helped her with her makeup and into a beautiful blue evening gown. Once
done, she resembled a stunning mermaid, noble yet mysterious. She looked at her reflection in the
mirror, satisfied with her princess-like makeup and hairstyle.
âMiss Jacobson, we wish you a delightful evening. The four clerks left. Soon, Josephine received a call
from Ethan. âHey, where are you?â She had begun to miss him. âOpen the door, enter the hallway, and
come straight to the deck. Iâll be waiting there.â
She replied, âSure. Iâm coming.â As she was wearing an evening dress, she could not help feeling like
she was a fairy tale princess. Everything that happened to her was like a dream.
The deck would usually be crowded, but why is it so empty today? Just as she stepped foot into the
hallway, she was flabbergasted because the deck had been decorated for a huge proposal. A live band
was playing romantic songs on the side while Ethan donned a blue suit, standing there and watching
her with a smile as she approached.
Josephine, come here,â he instructed. When she approached him, she finally understood his
disappearance. He had been here, decorating this place for their proposal. While looking at the large
heart made of roses, the white veil moving in the wind, and the romantic dinner table on the side, she
covered her chest, feeling so touched that she was about to cry.
Once she arrived beside Ethan, she was pulled into a gentle hug. After releasing her, he got on one
knee before her and held her hand, asking, âJosephine Jacobson, will you marry me?â
âI do!â Josephine replied with determination. Ethan held her hand while slowly rising to his feet. Then
he grabbed her waist with one hand and cupped the back of her head with the other, gently kissing her
before the crowd. Josephine, thank you.â
She did not expect he would propose to her before he regained his memory. âWhy didnât you wait until
you recovered all of your memories?â âI was afraid youâd feel displeased with me and escape, so I have
to make you mine first,â he announced.
That cracked Josephine up. âDonât worry. Iâm not going anywhere. Whether itâs this lifetime or the next,
Iâm yours. You canât escape from me.â
Ethan leaned his forehead against hers. âHow would I bear to leave you alone if youâre willing to stay
beside me?â
Music began to play, and he hugged her waist. âDance with me!â
Then the couple waltzed to the slow music. Rather than saying they were dancing, it would be more
appropriate to say they were pacing slowly while embracing each other. Under the dazzling sunset and
a gentle sea breeze, a romantic atmosphere filled the space while several cameras were placed on the
side, recording everything.
She raised her head and asked, âI heard thereâs a masquerade ball tonight.â âWould you like to join?â
âWill it be fun?â
âOf course!â
âSure. Iâll join the ball,â she said. On the other hand, another young lady was currently inside a
presidential suite on board- Willow Presgrave. Her assistant ran over and told her, âMiss Presgrave,
guess whom I saw on the deck!â
Willow was in a daze while propping her chin on her hand. She asked, âWho?â âI saw Mr. Quarles
proposing to a beautiful woman!â âYou mean Ethan?â Willow exclaimed in surprise, not expecting to
bump into him here.
âYes, itâs him. The proposal was so romantic, but guests werenât allowed to disturb them, so we could
only watch from far away. Why donât you go and congratulate them?â
