Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 374

James would usually not be on intimate terms with women in public and was always cold towards others. It was rare for him to do that and people started looking.

Angela felt like her face was getting hot and she wanted to smack his hand away. Suddenly, he stood up and put his hands on her face. Then, he kissed her on the lips.

She could see her reflection in his eyes. Angela tensed up and her mind went blank.

Something fell onto the ground and made a crisp sound.

The sound helped Angela snap back into reality. She bit down her teeth, not letting him in and pushed him a few times on the chest with moderate strength.

James smiled and let her go, seeing how red she turned, “You still don’t want to call me your husband? How about if I call you my wife?”

“…fine. Sit down, everyone’s looking.” Angela lowered her head and frowned, she pinched his arm lightly.

Maybe she didn’t realize, but what she did was rather flirtatious.

James sat down. He glanced to the side and smile when he saw Danis. Danis was telling a waiter to go clean up the broken plate on the floor.

Angela saw what happened. She grimaced and quickly looked away. She didn’t see Danis’ expression.

After a while, the waiter served the steaks, desserts and red wine that they ordered.

“There’s also some rose-flavoured cake here, try some.” James gave Angela some of the cake.

Why did James put the desserts on her plate before they even started eating the main dishes? Angela didn’t really like to eat sweets, but she still grabbed the cake.

Halfway eating, she felt something hard in her mouth.

It couldn’t be… how could James do something so lame?

Angela glanced at him, and she found a ring in the cake.

“Are you surprised?” James took the ring from her hand and put it on her finger.

Angela was speechless.

“James, you didn’t kneel and ask if I would marry you. There are no flowers, no confession…” Angela didn’t care about the form of the proposal, but she was a bit disappointed at how crude it was.

James lowered his head and kissed her on the hand, “Ask about what? Who else would you marry if it wasn’t me?”

That was true. But Angela was still disappointed.

She wanted to say something but she held herself back. She didn’t say anything in the end.

The ring was on her finger now and she was pregnant. Could she say no? But… she felt cheated.

James looked at her expression and couldn’t help but laugh.

He pinched her face and looked at her lovingly, “Grandfather is still here and everyone is looking at us. I cannot do something lavish. Just put on the ring first, take it as if I reserved you. I’ll promise you a grand proposal later on, okay?”

He didn’t plan to propose to her so suddenly. But what happened in the morning made him anxious.

He didn’t pay attention briefly and something happened without him knowing. He could’ve lost her back then!

…

At Star Restaurant.

The Smith family, Charles and Timothy were there.
