A Touch of Sweetness (Finnick Norton and Vivian William) novel Chapter 1559

Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1559

“Will you still accept me? I’m no longer the great princess. Now, I’m even worse than an average person. I can’t even do housework. Will you still think of me as someone great?”

Gabriella’s voice was trembling. Carl’s words made tears brimmed in her eyes.

Adoration filled Carl’s voice as he pleaded, “I will. The one I love is you and not your identity as the Wards’ daughter. You might not have believed it back then, but I’m sure you do now. Gabriella, marry me!”

As she listened to Carl’s proposal, tears finally escaped Gabriella’s eyes and streamed down her cheeks.

She never thought Carl, the one she once looked down on and detested, would choose to propose to her when she was at the hardest time of her life. I’ve always misunderstood him. He really does love me.

A warm sensation seeped into her heart at that thought. Although he was not excellent—he was even disabled now—what Gabriella needed now was a family who could protect her and a man who would worry about her.

Right as she was about to speak, Carl continued, “Gabriella, I know I’m not good enough for you. I lost the use of my legs because of some things in the past, and I really am not worthy of you. But still, I hope you can accept me. Please consider it, Gabriella. If you want me, I’ll come and pick you up at your place tomorrow. Let’s go back to my house. Let’s go back to a place where you’ll be loved.”

“I don’t need to consider it. I do. I’ll come with you!”

By then, Gabriella was already sobbing, her defenses having broken down by Carl.

Carl could give her everything she wanted. Why would she not say yes to him?

“That’s great, Gabriella. I’m so happy. I didn’t think you’ll accept me; I thought you were going to reject me without hesitating.”

The joy was audible in Carl’s voice. It was a day he had been waiting for long.
