Chapter 490 The Proposal
She was already walking toward the door. I cocked my head to the side when the door closed behind her and I was left alone in the room with Ace.
“I wonder what’s up with that...” I muttered curiously.
“I think she’s giving us personal time and space with the hope that I will surprise you,” Ace replied before grinning at me.
I had absolutely no idea what he was talking about, and I ended up cocking my head to the side as I stared at the mischievous sparkle that shone in his hazel brown eyes.
“Surprise me?” I repeated his words questioningly.
“I guess we shouldn’t disappoint your mother...” Ace said as he slowly stood up from his seat.
I stared at him as I failed to understand what he was about to do. At the same time, all I could really do was stare at him in wonder because I didn’t know how to react or what I was supposed to do. A strange tightness in my chest and a nagging feeling at the back of my mind told me that something major was about to happen although I wasn’t exactly sure what it was supposed to be. Ace had a slightly amused expression on his face, and I could tell that he was enjoying teasing me with whatever it was he was planning to do.
Ace stood close to me before suddenly dropping down on one knee. I blinked in surprise while telling myself that this couldn’t possibly be what I thought that it was. It felt so random, out of place, and extremely sudden. Within that short span of moment, I had already convinced myself that it was nothing and thinking that it was anything would just be me getting way ahead of myself. With that thought in mind, my mouth hung open when Ace brought out a small box that truly resembled a ring box.
It can’t be...
Ace smiled at me charmingly before he slowly opened the box. I had no idea why I was so shocked at that moment, but I was so shocked that there was a diamond solitaire ring inside the box. The huge diamond sparkled in the light like it had a life of its own. My entire body stiffened as my heart thumped fast and hard in my chest. I must have forgotten to breathe for a few seconds and then I simply started to panic inside.
“You look so shocked...” Ace teased me before letting out a giggle.
“Well...” I muttered as my mind raced to comprehend the entirety of what was happening.
Ace’s smile widened as he smiled up brightly at me. His smile only made my heart race faster in my chest. Once I managed to somewhat get a hang of myself, I quickly stood up to discover that my legs were shaking.
“Marry me, Rina...” Ace said simply before he showed me a smile that made my heartache with emotions.
Although I should have known that a marriage proposal was on the way given the fact that he was down on one knee and he even had a diamond ring out and ready, I still couldn’t quite believe it until those words came out of his mouth. Ace looked at me with longing eyes as he waited for my answer.
Whenever I thought about us getting married, I would worry endlessly about what would happen to us and what the future would hold. It felt scary and it felt like there were just too many unknowns. However, I had to say that my mind couldn’t have been clearer than it was at that moment.
It felt like I knew by some ingrained instinct that this was also what I wanted. Whatever doubts and worries that I had before completely vanished from my mind, and I felt a sense of determination and courage. I felt so lost in Ace’s mesmerizing gaze that I forgot for a moment that he was still waiting for my answer. n-)OvelBIn
“I guess we can always have a baby together first before we get married if that is what you preferred,” Ace said before smiling up at me again.
I could tell that he was probably only half joking. Having a baby with Ace surely didn’t sound like a bad plan at all.
“Let’s get married first...you know...before we have a baby...” I replied softly.
Despite feeling so shy and self-conscious all of a sudden, I couldn’t stop smiling at the same time. Ace’s eyes visibly lit up and I could feel his happiness as if it was my own feeling as well. His smile widened as he reached for my left hand and held it ever so gently in his. His touch felt so warm and so secure.
“I take that as a yes,” Ace said while sounding clearly satisfied.
Ace looked so confident so I was sure that he knew that I wouldn’t turn him down this time around. It felt impossible for me to reject his proposal given how much I also wanted to marry him and share a future with him. Building a family with Ace felt like the most magical thing ever and I couldn’t quite believe that he was giving me the opportunity to stay by his side.
Ace slowly slipped the wedding ring on my ring finger. The ring felt slightly cold as it slid down to the base of my finger. Surprisingly, the ring was a perfect fit, but I guessed that Ace could figure out a detail like this if he put his mind to it. The diamond sparkled so vibrantly as it reflected light. Ace smiled at me, and my heart skipped a beat as I stared directly into his eyes.
“I feel like I might faint...” I confessed before I could stop myself.
I pressed my right hand flat against my chest to feel the rushed beating of my heart. Ace brought my left hand to his lips and kissed the back of it romantically. Despite the fact that we were simply alone in my mother’s humble apartment room, everything about that moment felt so perfect and right.
