Suddenly, Chloe did not know how to react. The only he talked about was marriage.
At the same time, Melody overheard Byron just as she was about to serve them tea. She was surprised too.
She thought that her son was being emotional and that he would change his mind after meeting Chloe.
She never expected that he would propose.
On top of that, he did it so bluntly!
"Byron, what’s the matter with you? Why did you suddenly propose to marry me?"
When Chloe came back to her senses, her intuition told her something.
‘Something must’ve happened for Byron to do this!
‘What is it, then?’
Melody paused at Chloe’s question and looked at her son in puzzlement.
‘I’ve asked him repeatedly, but he wouldn’t tell me. Now, even Chloe thinks so. There must be something wrong.
‘I wonder if he will tell Chloe the truth.’
She was waiting at the kitchen door.
She thought Byron would say something. However, after waiting for a while, Byron unexpectedly turned his head and looked over.
The mother and son’s eyes met. Melody was taken aback for a moment. Then, she placed the cups on the table as if nothing had happened.
"Have some tea. Let's chat while drinking!"
With that, she wanted to sit down beside them.
Byron interjected. "Mom, would you please excuse us? I want to talk to Miss Lincoln privately."
Melody paused. The expression on her face froze. "What is it that you must say without me?"
She was displeased.
Byron did not intend to explain.
