Book2 Chapter26.
"You-look beautiful."
Wait, what?
I didn't expect Leo's first words after approaching me to be anything remotely like that.
I was in a T-shirt and jeans, no makeup on, with a pencil still tangled in my hair.
He actually thought I looked beautiful like this?
I awkwardly took the bouquet from him.
It was "Endless Summer," the symbol of everlasting love - my favorite before.
Leo used to say that having flowers around might bring pollen into the office, triggering Luna's allergies. So, we hardly kept flowers at home, and I rarely received any from him.
"Elizabeth, since Leo's here, I'll leave you guys to it. We'll talk about the design drafts later," Rolin said considerately as he stepped away.
I watched Rolin leave, absentmindedly noting that my drafts should be be ready the day after tomorrow.
Lost in thoughts, I almost missed Leo's next words.
"Beth... will you marry me?"
