Chapter 278
Zoe froze on the spot, taking a moment to process what she had just heard.
The call was from Chuck? And he was planning to rent out the entire restaurant to confess his feelings to someone?
But Zoo remembered what she had heard from Hammond; Chuck was a bachelor who had little interest in women. How could it be possible for him to make such a grond gesture?
Did that mean the person who was doing it would be…
The mere thought made Zoe feel deliriously happy. As soon as the cashier hung up the phone, she quickly paid her bill and rushed back to Yuna.
“Yunal Great news! Mr. Winston is going to confess his feelings for you in four days! I overheard Chuck making a call to the cashier. Mr. Winston has booked the entire restaurant for you, and they’ll be setting up the place in the next couple of days!”
Yuna’s eyes widened in surprise, “Really?”
“Of course! I heard it with my own ears, how could it be false? I knew it was a good thing when Laverne passed away! It has accelerated your progress with Mr Winston!”
Zoe and Yuna lightly embraced each other in shared excitement. But what Zoe didn’t see was the manic happiness and arrogance in Yuna’s eyes, and the hair she had anxiously pulled from her scalp clutched tightly in her fist
For the next three days, Marguente was kept busy at the funeral home, with Frederick accompanying her every step of the way.
After putting Marguente to bed late at night, Frederick would then go to the Bluebell Bistro to personally set up the place with Chuck, often working till the early hours of the morning
Today was the last day.
Once Marguerite’s grandmother was laid to rest tomorrow, Frederick would bring her to the venue in the evening and candidly express his feelings for her Surrounded by roses and tulips, Frederick was growing increasingly nervous. He had never confessed his feelings to anyone before, and all of this was completely
new to him
He was afraid that Marguerite wouldn’t like it, and also worried that she would think the setup was too cheesy. All of this made his heart flutter nervously.
At that moment, Chuck was adjusting the lights. With a press of a button, the entire restaurant was adorned with clusters of starlight, creating a high–class and dazzling atmosphere.
Even Chuck was surprised to see this romantic side of Mr. Winston
“Mr. Winston, don’t worry. I’ve looked through many stage designs and wedding ceremonies, both domestic and international, and none of them are as beautiful as this. I know Marguerite will love it.”
Frederick didn’t respond to Chuck’s words, and Chuck asked, “Mr. Winston, have you thought about what you’re going to say to Marguente tomorrow?”
Frederick finally looked up
What was he going to say to her?
He hadn’t thought about that. Between the funeral home and planning this grand gesture, he hadn’t had time to think about it
Frederick’s expression was slightly guilty, as if he felt he hadn’t done enough for Marguerite.
Chuck caught on to this and said, “It’s normal for you not to know, after all, you’ve never been in love! But I’ve read romance novels! I know exactly how to confess
to a woman!
You should say something like, Marguerite, I love you. My love for you is as constant as the transition from night to dawn, from dusk to the four seasons. It’s everlasting”
Fredenck’s expression became strange, and he scratched his nose awkwardly. “That sounds a bit cheesy. She doesn’t seem like the kind of woman who likes to hear those kinds of words.”
“Mr. Winston, it’s your sincerity that counts. Marguerite will love it.”
Chuck was certain of this Overjoyed, he suddenly asked, “But Mr. Winston, have you thought about how to deal with the baby she’s carrying? Don’t tell me you’re not bothered.”
Seeing Fredenck’s face slowly harden, Chuck quickly cut himself off.
7’m sorry, Mr. Winston I shouldn’t have dampened your mood.”
To his surprise, Frederick’s mood was unusually good, “I don’t mind. After today I will thoroughly investigate who hurt Marguerite. He must give her an explanation” Hearing Frederick’s words, Chuck breathed a sigh of relief.
As they finished their final checks and prepared to leave the restaurant, Jocelyn was standing by the door, looking at them with a stein expression
He knew his mother had always dicapproved of his relationship with Marguerite, so he hadn’t mentioned a word about his plans of proposing to her
But Frederick didn’t give Jocelyn the chance to speak He blurted out, “Mom, I know you were trying to convince Marguerite to break up with me. But now you see my decision. I know you might not be happy, but I hope you’ll support me.”
Jocelyn tumed round to face him Her face was stern, radiating displeasure. “So, knowing It would upset me, you still went ahead anyway? Couldn’t you have discussed such a major decision with me?”
Jocelyn looked at him with a knowing, motherly gaze “If you’re going all out for tonight, I wonder what you’ll do for the wedding if you botch it, Marguerite might be disappointed”
