Chapter 16 Was He Making Fun Of Her
Chapter 16 Was He Making Fun Of Her
Aaron grinned as he held Rita's hand tightly and whispered in her ear, "Are you satisfied about this?" The smile on his face became deeper.
To be honest, she was really surprised.
She had been just joking then. The reason why she had joked to ask Aaron to propose to her was to tease him. But he had really given her a proposal ceremony. Was this guy so rich that he spent money at will? Or was he bored enough and playing with her?
Rita looked around. Pink gauze was put down and flower petals were scattered on the floor. The music was melodious. There was a note of her name showed on the brightly lit building in the distance along with a sentence, "Marry Me Rita!"
Everything here looked like a fairy tale.
Today, she was the princess in fairy tales and the heroine of this fantastic proposal. She could not believe it, and even had some doubts.
She had never thought that she would be proposed by Aaron.
She had never thought that Aaron would prepare a proposal ceremony for her.
This kind of ceremony might be nothing to him. He just moved his fingers and asked people to prepare everything. He just needed to show on time and take her out to the surprise. Everything was reasonable.
But for a woman, being proposed is the most important moment of her life.
There was only one first proposal in a lifetime, which was the most precious thing.
She gave her valuable things one after another to Aaron like that.
Was God playing tricks on her?
"Marry me." He took out a ring, with a pigeon-egg-sized diamond on it, which was shining with brilliant light. It seemed to absorb all the radiance around, like the vast sky, shining with the stars.
She saw Aaron getting down on one knee. He was kneeling in front of her and begging her to marry him.
She was stunned.
She was completely stunned. She didn't even know what she should do. She didn't even know if she should refuse.
If she refused him, Aaron would certainly make her suffer a lot. What's more, refusing meant the bankruptcy of the Gu family.
If she accept him, how could she persuade herself to accept the hypocrisy of this man? She knew that everything was fake, and she had to pretend to be the happiest woman in the world.
She took a deep breath. She noticed the shock on Magee's face in the distance, and the envy in Yvonne's eyes. She seemed to be in a deep water, and she was about to drown.
What would Magee think of her? He must have thought that she was the kind of woman greedy for money. He must have thought that it was she to hook up with Aaron.
She wanted to explain. She wanted to tell Magee that she had her own difficulties and her relationship with the Aaron was not like this what he had seen.
She wanted to tell Magee that she was actually waiting for him.
But she could not speak out. The relationship with Aaron had come to this stage and there was no way turning back. She had to give herself to Aaron in order to save her family.
She was obviously in pain, but at this moment, in the eyes of outsiders, she was the happiest woman ever.
Was this the purpose of Aaron? Just to see her in pain and in dilemma? Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
She turned her glance back to Aaron.
There was a playful smirk on his face.
She was sure that he was making fun of her!
But she had to cooperate with him. She had no choice at all.
She had to accept him, or else the Gu family would go broke. She had no way, and she had to continue to act in the play with him.
She and Aaron didn't really love each other. She did this for the Gu family, and what did he want? Just for fun?
"Marry me," he said again with a smile.
"Okay," she responded indifferently and handed her hand to him.
She was obedient, and spontaneously let him put the ring on her fourth finger. At that moment, all the balloons rose, and there was a burst of applause in the restaurant, and everyone was blessing them.
She was the happiest woman in the world today. At least in the eyes of others, she was the happiest because she married to Aaron Leng.
But she knew she was the most unfortunate one. This was not even her choice.
Being held in Aaron's arms, she accepted the cheer and applause by the people around her. She was like the most beautiful princess who was loved by the prince.
She turned her head sideways to look at Aaron beside her. He had been smiling all the time. No matter what happened, there would always be an unfathomable smile on his face.
"Why... Why did you do this?"
She whispered in his ear in a serious tone. "I don't believe you like me. I don't believe that you would like someone in only two or three days and even wanted to marry her. What do you want? The Gu family has nothing you want, and you don't lack women at all. The good or bad skills in bad are just lies. You can get whatever you want. So... Why do you marry me?"
She really wanted to know the real reason.
Aaron definitely had his own reason. Otherwise, he must have other purposes to marry a woman he hadn't known for a week.
