Chapter 2873
After receiving the bundle of roses, Tia wrapped her hand around Stanley's and helped him up.
With his eyes still locked with Tia's, Stanley produced a velvet box from his pocket. After opening it, he took a diamond ring out and gently placed it on Tia's left ring finger.
"Oh my gosh, congratulations!"
"Finally, you've taken a load off everyone's mind."
Everyone congratulated the couple with joy, though they did not forget to complain about how long they had waited for this day to arrive.
Tia's cheeks reddened from the fanfare, while Stanley caressed her hair, smoothening them for her.
"I'm truly thankful we didn't slip past each other," he said.
Stanley would often still cringe thinking about how foolish he was to put Tia at the sidelines. Fortunately, everything had played out the way they wanted now, and from this point onward, they were going to be together forever.
With the proposal over with, the restaurant's ambient lights returned to normal, and Stanley led Tia back to the dining table.
My gosh! Well, you two didn't have it easy," Lulu said, almost driven to the point of tears..
Tia's cheeks were still maroon from all the shyness and nervousness she had been feeling from the past minute.
Knowing that she was in no condition to respond to anyone, Stanley held her in his arms and said to Lulu. "It was indeed a tough road."
"Hehe. Cherish her forever, okay?" Lulu teased.
Solemn and unsmiling, Stanley nodded. "I will."
"Stanley," Tia called out, pulling his shirt in embarrassment.
As it was time for them to proceed, Nicole looked at them with a wide grin on her face. "Alright, settle down, guys. Let's all take a seat and prepare to dine in."
With that, the waiters gradually served everyone their dishes, allowing them to chat while enjoying the food. It was an eventful night to say the least, and once everyone had gotten their bellies filled, they returned home.
The couples then filed out of the restaurant hand-in-hand, leaving Preston, who looked like a forlorn beggar on a rainy day, to approach Nicole. "It seems that I am the only one left to send you home. Do I have the honor, milady?"
