Chapter 359 - Besties should always be like this... (1/2)

”I don't want to marry you because no matter what, I'll be the only person who will marry you. Even if you don't agree, I'll pull you to the aisle and yell loudly…Yes, I love you honey and I'm ready to tie the knot with you anywhere and any moment you ask for me..”

Reuben smiled brightly at her and got up from the floor but before he could took the ring out of the box, Veronica jumped on to him and engulfed him in a tight hug as she started crying on his chest.

Reuben balanced themselves at first and then wrapped his arms around her waist tightly, embracing her in warm hug.

Kissing the top of her head, he caressed her back to pacify her as she was sobbing hysterically in his soothing embrace.

Her tears were replica of her true emotions which had only love, fondness and infinite amount of trust..

”It's okay love! You can cry as much as you want. But if we don't exchange the rings right now, then our mothers will go crazy on me because they had clearly notified me that we need to be done with our engagement before their so called auspicious time ends.” Reuben joked to make the mood lighter while others laughed at his poky comments.

Veronica too chuckled and hit him on the chest playfully before she moved away a little from him.

Reuben wiped off the tear strains from her angelic face and kissed her forehead lightly which brought a smile on her lips instantly.

Reuben then held her left hand in his left one and kissed it softly which made everyone present there smile at the couple's sweetness.

Taking the ring out, Reuben slowly slid it into her ring finger which earned a round of applause from the guests.

The moment Veronica noticed the design of the ring and her mouth opened wide in shock as she stuttered, ”Bennie, it's the design that I..”

Before Veronica could complete, Reuben cut off her and said, ”Yes, it's the same ring that you had designed a year ago, coordinating with the pendant I gifted you on our first date.”

The ring had a very sophisticated design with simple curving but it was absolutely innovative. It was divided into two parts horizontally..

The first part had a big shining diamond placed in the middle of the golden plate. And the second part had been carved in a design of small leaves which matches the pendant and had the same meaning..

It was really beautiful and precious than any other heavyweight rings..

Veronica was completely impressed with Reuben's efforts and she guessed rightly that the planning of the party had started way before her known date..

”If this ring is here, then where is yours? If I'd have known about the surprise engagement then I'd have prepared the ring for you which I had designed along with mine..” Veronica complained while pouting cutely.

Reuben chuckled and replied, ”Don't worry love! I've arranged everything beforehand.”

Then he motioned to Mrs. Smith to bring the ring and gave it to Veronica. When she noticed it, she was again dumbfounded with all the preparations.

It was the same ring with more magnificent details. The ring was made of platinum and a huge diamond in a round shape which was connected the two sides of the ring in a intricate way..
