Chapter 769: A Sudden Attacked
Heather sighed with mixed feelings. Perhaps this was what karma meant.
In fact, she and Alexander hadn’t done anything to them, but the family had been thrown into confusion by themselves and directly fallen into the abyss.
Kim herself had chosen such a bad man, and now she had such a bad result. She wasn’t pathetic at all. As for Allen, he had been completely a playboy who had been spoiled by Gary and wasn’t capable at all. Therefore, after losing everything, he never wanted to stage a comeback or live a peaceful life but directly chose to degenerate.
Anyway, whatever happened to the family, it wasn’t Heather and Alexander’s business. “When will you be here?” Heather asked.
“I’m almost there,” Alexander said in an unnatural tone. “Heather, will you go to the middle of the square and wait for me?”
She was at a loss. “Ah? Why?”
“Stand in the middle of the square so I can find you easily,” he said.
Although she was still puzzled, she finally agreed, “All right.”
She went to the square, only to see a circle of roses in the middle of the square and many people surrounding them.
She frowned slightly and thought, “What’s going on here? Is there an activity in the square?”
She took out her phone and was about to call Alexander to explain the situation when she froze.
Alexander was standing in the middle of the roses, gazing affectionately in her direction with a smile in his eyes.
She was dazed.
“Heather, come here,” he whispered.
She seemed to hear clearly what he was saying even though they were far apart.
She walked in his direction. It seemed that her heart was about to pop out of her mouth, her mind going blank.
She walked almost mechanically in his direction.
He began to walk towards her.
He couldn’t wait anymore.
She watched him approach and then get down on one knee in front of her.
“Heather, marry me,” he said as he took from his arms a velvet box he had prepared, in which a beautiful diamond ring lay quietly.
She hadn’t been able to come to her senses. It turned out that it wasn’t because Alexander was busy, but because he was preparing the proposal, he couldn’t pick her up. So he wanted to surprise her?”
However, she had no mental preparation at all!
“Marry him! Marry him!” The onlookers around shouted in unison.
Her cheeks flushed as she listened to their voices in her ears.
“Heather,” Alexander said, gently taking her hand. His eyes were full of deep emotion. “I want to walk with you the rest of my life.”
Her heart missed a beat.
There was a look of embarrassment on her
face. “But, but…”
“Are you… unwilling to marry me?” he asked in a hushed voice, with a touch of hidden resentment in his eyes.
Her cheeks went red, and she quickly explained, “No. When I went out today, I didn’t even wear much makeup. I didn’t even wear formal or pretty clothes. I was totally unprepared for such an important proposal, and for some reason, I feel it a pity.”
A smile curved his lips as he watched her panicky, aggrieved expression. “My Heather is the prettiest at any time.”
She still felt a little down. “That being said…”
He chuckled. “Then you say yes first, and when you’re ready, I’ll propose to you, okay?” Looking at his warm, gentle smile, she couldn’t resist agreeing, as if she had been. bewitched. “Okay…”
He took her hand and slipped the diamond ring into her ring finger sweetness in her heart seemed to overflow. Alexander had asked her to marry him…. “Kiss her! Kiss her!” shouted the onlookers.
Looking at the ring on her finger, then again.
Alexander stood up, stretched out his arms, and tenderly wrapped them around Heather’s waist.
Her heart beat like a drum when she looked into his eyes that were as deep as the sea. He slowly leaned over and kissed her on the lips.
Kissing in front of so many people, she should be shy, but her brain was a mess. She just wanted time to stop at this moment. She couldn’t help but reach out her arms and wrap them around his neck.
Countless balloons were released at this moment, and the whole square became particularly beautiful.
As they kissed, Hazel watched the scene with interest.
“Honey,” she began, looking curiously at Joshua next to her, “you see your beloved daughter being proposed to after you fly home immediately. What do you think of it?”
He looked at her helplessly. Now Hazel was more and more like a naughty child, but he just liked her and loved her and wanted to spoil her.
“Here’s what I think,” he answered as his mouth tilted upwards slightly at the corners, and he used his long arm to pull his lovely wife directly into his arms. “I’ll have more time to be with you when our daughter has someone to trust.”
Her heart was warm. After so many years of marriage, their daughters had found her true love, but they still seemed to be in love.
She was about to say something when she saw someone sneaking into the crowd, trying to get closer to Heather and Alexander.
“Honey, look!” Hazel hurried to tug at Joshua’s sleeve and screamed.
They tried to push their way through the crowd and approached the man. However, there were so many people that they couldn’t get closer any faster.
Heather and Alexander’s kiss was over.
“Heather…” he whispered, with a contented smile on his lips. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he pushed Heather away.
Heather looked back in astonishment and
happened to see Allen holding a sharp knife and stabbing it at them.
And, in a twinkling, he was right in front of them!
“Alexander Christopher, I’ll kill you!” Allen shouted angrily.
Coldly, Alexander raised his foot and kicked Allen’s dagger swiftly out of his hand.
Allen’s hand hurt badly, but his face became more and more ferocious. The next moment, he directly took a bottle of liquid out of his chest, opened it, and threw it at Heather.
“Ah!” the onlookers screamed. This sudden incident completely overwhelmed them.
Heather’s face turned strangely pale. She couldn’t dodge such a large area of unidentified fluid even if she wanted to!
Suddenly, a warm body held her tightly. When she found it was Alexander, her pupils suddenly dilated!
Alexander stood directly in front of her at the critical moment and completely blocked her.
“Alex!” she cried in alarm.
“I’m fine,” he whispered to comfort her.
“How can you possibly be fine? Let me check! Quick!” she tried hard to suppress her panic and said. “Let me help you with the wound first!”
