Chapter 419 - His Gentleness (1/2)

Senior Sy felt extremely accomplished and proud as he watched Chelsy's graduation ceremony. He bore witness as to how hard she had studied in order to graduate with high honors.

The ceremony started in the morning and finished before lunchtime. He stood up from his chair and went on to wait for Chelsy at a corner near the exit of the function hall where the ceremony was held.

A friend of his, who was a professor of the university approached him and said, ”Mr. Sy… I'm surprised to see you here. Are you waiting for someone?”

Ram nodded and said, ”My girlfriend…”

”Oh! someone among the professors here?” The man commented in surprise because they had a lot of stunning professors here at that ceremony.

Ram chuckled and said, ”she's a student and has now graduated with honors.”

His friend was taken aback but immediately composed himself and said, ”Well then congratulations to you and her.”

Ram nodded as he casually chatted with him. Soon his friend left and he looked in Chelsy's direction. He no longer had insecurities like before pertaining to the age gap between him and Chelsy. He had somehow managed to overcome it over time with Chelsy's help since she never did anything of the sort that would give room for him to feel insecure about their age.

His eyes were filled with love when he watched Chelsy with her classmates and professors. She was wearing a formal royal-blue gown and he could not take his eyes off her. She made him feel young again, and because of his habit of maintaining his physique, their age difference would not even be noticed by other people whenever they would go out together.

It had been a year of him waiting for her and he silently congratulated himself for being able to manage waiting for that long. Yes, he had decided to wait for Chelsy to complete and finish her studies first. He wanted her to spread her wings, work towards the future she wanted during that time and also give her an opportunity to think carefully if she really wanted to stay with him for the rest of her life.

Then today would be the day… the judgment day… He would finally come to know if Chelsy was willing to spend the rest of her life with him after a one-year relationship with him.

He put his hand inside his pocket and a smile escaped his lips when he felt the small box sitting in his right pocket. He intended to propose to Chelsy during dinner tonight, in front of his family members who Chelsy had managed to win over by means of her endless wooing.

He could not help but chuckle at recalling all those scenes. Miley even started complaining about her figure since Chelsy did not stop giving her all the delicious food and meals she cooked.

His and Chelsy's eyes met and she gave him her sweetest and brightest smile. She immediately finished saying her pleasantries to classmates and professors and ran to meet Ram who was at the corner, just staring at her quietly.

Not caring about the eyes around them, she rushed towards him, and he immediately took her in his warm and tight embrace.

”I did it. Thank you!” Chelsy beamed as her eyes filled with tears.

”Congratulations…” Ram whispered, feeling ecstatic at seeing how happy Chelsy was.

”Why didn't you approach me? I would have introduced you to my classmates and professors.”
