In My Desperate Time novel Chapter 396

In the crowded Prague Square, Frances and I are lost in our amorous kiss.

This kiss is sweet and fresh as ever many years later.

After the fierce kiss, Frances pulls me into the carriage, and we wander around the square.

I still stare at the ring on my finger and can't look away.

"Frances, where did you get this?"

I ask again.

My perseverance prevails and Frances explains to me, "I bought this ring at the auction that day."

An auction?

I remember Frances came back in a good mood then. It turns out it was because he obtained this ring.

It is safe to assume that he has been planning on proposing to me since then.

No wonder he has been acting so mysteriously these days. It has been about the upcoming proposal arranged in secret.

I am so touched by him.

I smile and he continues.

"This ring was given to his favorite concubine by Ramses II. He loved that woman all his life. I bought this ring to prove I would love you for the rest of my life."

I come to realize every word that comes from Frances can make my heart race.

When he says them, the clichés become the most touching words of affection.

"Gross," I grumble in a flirtatious manner and lean against his shoulder, my heart filled with happiness.

Frances' proposal drives away all my displeasure from these past few days.

We have fun in Prague for three days. Then Frances decides it is time to go home because a project in his company needs his attention.

After bidding farewell to my parents, we get on the plane to return.

Frances goes straight back to the company, and I go home in a car.

Old Mr. Louis has returned, and Sabina still locks herself up in her room.
