Chapter 629 - Fulfilling All Your Dreams (2/2)
On the stairs, apart from the candles burning beside her, there were also rose petals scattered in the middle. She had only taken a shower for a while, but her house had become this warm and romantic.
Anya's lips curved into a sweet smile. Did Aiden do all this?
When she went downstairs, Anya was surprised to see that the family room on the first floor had been filled with a sea of flowers. Red roses scattered from the stairs to the garden.
There was no one in the room. Apparently, everyone was gathered at the park.
Every step that Anya took was accompanied by a growing sense of anticipation as well as nervousness.
Earlier, she felt touched and a little jealous when she saw Nico proposed to Tara. In all her life, she had never been proposed by the man she loved. Their wedding was too rushed and held in a very simple way.
She unintentionally said her wish to Aiden. But the man looked confused and didn't understand what she was saying.
Was Aiden really going to propose to her today?
Would that cold and unromantic man really kneel before her and propose to her?
Still, even if Aiden didn't propose to her, their marriage was perfect already. Plus, they were looking forward to the birth of their twins in their little family.
This proposal was only her wish and desire as a woman. But she did not think Aiden would grant her wish.
Anya's footsteps grew faster as she walked towards the garden's door.
Her hand grabbed the knob and opened it with a hopeful heart.
In the garden, Aiden stood on a pile of heart-shaped roses in his neat suit, carrying a bouquet of irises.
Anya was stunned for a moment when she looked at him. ”Am I in the wrong place? Isn't the party over?”
”Nico's party is over, but our love story has only just begun.” Like a prince, Aiden approached Anya, one step at a time. Then he gave the bouquet of flowers he was holding to her.
An hour ago before all the guests left, Hana came over to Aiden.
She had heard from her son that Aiden intended to propose to Anya, so Hana decided to tell Aiden something.
”Sir, when Anya first lived in this house, she told me about her dream. She said she dreamed that you were carrying a large bouquet of flowers and a ring, kneeling in the garden and proposing to her,” said Hana. She still remembered everything Anya had told her. Anya said it was just a dream as a man like Aiden would never do anything like that.
”Looks like she really wanted to be proposed romantically,” Aiden said with a serious look. All this time, Anya had never told him about her wish. Aiden too, wasn't sensitive enough to matters like this, so he never realized it.
”At that time, I told Anya that her dream could come true. Even though it's difficult, that doesn't mean it's impossible. What if you made her dream come true tonight?” Hana said with a smile. ”Sir, if you propose to her, she will be very happy.”
Aiden nodded and whispered to Harris. ”Harris, please prepare everything.”
An hour later, all of Anya's wishes had come true.
Aiden was standing in a sea of irises, the flower she liked, carrying a bouquet of red roses. The man and the red rose in his hand stood out in the midst of white irises.
”Aiden, are you going to propose to me?” Anya stood where she was, as if she couldn't believe all this. She didn't even dare to take the flower Aiden gave her, for fear that all of this was just a dream.
Aiden didn't answer, but he suddenly knelt in front of Anya and took a ring box from inside his coat's pocket.
”Anya, I'm not good with words. When I saw Nico proposed to Tara today, I laughed at him and found his behavior very embarrassing. I'm not a romantic man, I'm not good at pleasing women. But one thing is for sure, I will make all your dreams come true, even the smallest ones,” said Aiden as he opened the ring box he was holding.
Inside the box was a very beautiful diamond ring. It was nothing like the big, gaudy diamond Nico gave Tara. The ring looked cute and tiny, like Anya in Aiden's eyes. His cute and petite little wife...
”Anya, will you marry me?”
”I must be dreaming. I must have fallen asleep and haven't woken up yet,” Anya was stiffly silent in her place. She still couldn't believe any of this.
Nadine couldn't help but laugh. She chuckled and said, ”Auntie, this is not a dream. Uncle is really proposing to you.”
She was not surprised to see Anya's reaction. As a niece, Nadine really understood her uncle, and never had she imagined that Aiden would do something so romantic for a woman.
But it was true that love could overcome everything. Even the solid wall of ice in Aiden's heart could melt because of that.
