Mr. Reid, is this a marriage proposal?
Who was the protagonist?
Everyone looked around, but they didn’t see the figure of his recently revealed girlfriend.
All eyes fell on Caroline, who was dressed in a magnificent gown, and whispered among themselves.
“The clothes were not as good as new, and the person was not as good as before. It seems that Mr. Reid finally chose his first love,”
“Poor ex–girlfriend, slse probably didn’t even know the reason for the breakup.”
Listening to the whispers coming from all around, and looking at the various roses spread throughout the hall, Caroline’s eyes were filled with pride. She knew that Bryan would ultimately choose her.
He liked her for eight years, and his initial feelings remained unchanged.
Why did Hailey compete with her?
As the banquet was about to begin, a few sisters took her to the restroom and took out their portable cosmetics, insisting on doing her makeup.
“Mr. Reid is about to propose in public soon, Caroline, you must stay in your best condition!”
“Yeah, those young ladies outside will probably be jealous of you later. You have to suppress all of them.”
Listening to the praise from her sisters, Caroline couldn’t stop smiling
She squinted her eyes, as if she had already seen the happy scene of her dreams coming true.
Everything went as Caroline had imagined.
At the climax of the banquet, Bryan, who had been absent all along, appeared wearing a black suit, accompanied by the sudden playing of a romantic piano piece

“Isn’t this “The Everhart Diamond‘ that was sold for a billion dollars a few days ago? And it’s actually in Mr. Reid’s b

“Proposing with this ring? Mr. Reid is truly deeply in love with Ms. Harris ”
These envious voices fell into Caroline’s ears, giving her more confidence.
She slightly lifted her chin, revealing her slender neck, like a graceful swan.
But in front of Bryan, she had to continue pretending to be confused, so she raised her hand and partially covered her lips, making a surprised expression “Bry, you were.”
Bryan did not answer her, but instead showed her the answer through lus actions
He took a few steps back, knelt down on one knee, lifted those captivating peach blossom eyes, and asked with a smile that fulfilled Caroline’s long–awaited dream.
“Would you marry me?”
It is not known who started it, but there was a burst of noise, and the whole crowd began to make a commotion, screaming and shouting like bolling water that had been opened
Caroline was deeply moved and slowly extended her right hand.
The plano plece mysteriously came to a halt.
The romantic atmosphere that had been rendered for a long time was instantly destroyed.
The guests at the scene all turned their heads in mison, wanting to see where the problem was, but they could never find the issue. They could only silently shift their paze to Bryan, the planner of the proposal ceremony, the main character of the banquet.
Caroline also felt a little spoiled and posted, sulking.
“Bry, this piano piece…”
“This piano piece, I called it to a stop,”
Bryan pot up and told her the answer.
When he stood up straight and lifted his head, the smile on his face lad vanished, leaving only a cold indifference.
Many people could sense that something big was about to happen when they saw him change his facial expression.
Everyone held their breath.
