Chapter 2464
"Hey, put me down!" June said, her cheeks turning bright red from all the eyes on her.
Once she was on her feet, Samuel produced a small velvet box from his pocket, within which was a dazzling diamond ring.
Without hesitation, he put it on June's left ring finger. "Do you like it?"
"I love it," June said, her eyes fixed on the ring.
It was the exact style she adored. As she was taking it all in, Samuel went on to produce another small box.
"What's this?" she asked with a hint of surprise in her voice. "Help me put this on," Samuel said, passing the box to June. She opened it to find a men's ring; a perfect match to hers. With a warm smile, she slid the ring onto his finger, filling her with all the warmth and fuzziness that the moment had to offer.
The lights flickered then back on, drawing everyone closer. "Make a wish and blow out the candles," Samuel gently said. June took a moment, looked at the faces of everyone present, and asked, "How about we all join in?"
"Alright, let's make a group wish and blow out the candles," Lulu suggested. "Here's to happiness everlasting."
Nicole, sharing a glance with Jared, added, "And to lovebirds never parting from one another."
With that, they both smiled at one another.
After each person had shared their wish, they all came together to blow out the candles, whereupon cheers erupted from the group. But when they returned to their seats, they found that the main dishes had been swapped out for fruits and dessert.
Lulu, with a grin, remarked, "Who knew you had this sneaky side to yourself, Samuel? So you've been cooking up this surprise the whole time?"
"Of course I couldn't spill the beans early. It wouldn't be a surprise anymore if I did that, would it?" Samuel replied with a cheeky grin.
Then, after turning over to look at June, Lulu teased, "You got June so choked up. Her eyes are all red. Everything is as it should be now, huh?"
