Chapter 130
Anastasia heard a loud ringing in her ears. You’ve gone too far this time, Nigel. “I knew you wouldn’t reject me, Anastasia. I know you love me too!” Nigel cried happily. His voice was so loud that the crowd could hear him even though he wasn’t using the microphone.
By then, Harriet had already arrived at the front of the stage. She looked up to see Nigel and Anastasia hugging each other, and she was too stunned to say anything for a moment. Did both my grandsons switch roles? Was Anastasia more interested in Nigel all along? Either way, I just want Anastasia to be a part of our family. It doesn’t matter who she gets married to; I’ll be happy just to have her with us. If the one Anastasia truly likes is Nigel, then I’d be happy to support their marriage as well.
Elliot watched the whole proposal from the second floor without a hint of emotion on his face. However, he tightened his grip on the railing, and veins popped up on the back of his hands. He looked like he was trying to crush the railing
“Get off the stage. Stop fooling around,” Anastasia told Nigel. Nigel held her hand before he grabbed the mic and addressed the crowd below him. “Thank you for the wishes, everyone. I’m really happy that my proposal was a success.”
Anastasia eyed him speechlessly. Fine! I’ll have to explain myself to him later.
At the same time, the Harts wore grim looks on their faces as they turned to glare at the Mansons. “What’s going on, Mr. and Mrs. Manson? Does Nigel want to marry someone else?”
“We’re not too sure about this. That woman once saved Nigel,” Brenda explained before letting out a sigh. Brenda knew that Nigel had always been thankful for the girl who had saved her, but she hadn’t expected her son to propose to the girl tonight.
“I still hope for Nigel and Leah to get married. We would gladly marry our daughter to him if we get the chance to do so,” Leah’s mother uttered. She still hoped that there was a chance for changes to happen.
