He Gave Her Strawberries, Gave Me Hives (Ford and Sylvia) novel Chapter 124

This sudden farce was like a mirror, reflecting Felix’s completely shattered dignity and Stella’s unbreakable resolve.

Far from ruining the proposal’s atmosphere, it acted as a catalyst, allowing Stella to see clearly who was truly worthy of spending the rest of her life with.

She turned to Archer, who had stood up and was looking at her with concern and anticipation in his eyes. She took a deep breath, and a smile of relief and determination spread across her face.

She reached out and took Archer’s hand, saying softly but clearly.

‘Archer Hayes, I do. I am willing… to try and walk into a new future with you.”

The restaurant erupted in warm applause and cheers of congratulations. Overcome with emotion, Archer pulled her into his arms and held her tight, as if embracing a long–lost treasure.

And Felix, thrown out of the restaurant and left slumped in the cold hallway, could only listen to the cheers from within. It felt as if his very soul had been ipped from his body, leaving nothing but an endless, consuming darkness.

After the proposal, Stella and Archer’s relationship entered a new phase. They grew closer, appearing publicly at important events as a couple.

Chapter 26

Like a madman, he bolted from his office, jumped into his car, floored the accelerator, and ran countless red lights, racing towards the accident site.

He had only one thought in his mind.

Save her! He couldn’t lose her! Absolutely not!

When he arrived, he was met with a horrifying scene.

The mangled car was emitting black smoke, the air thick with the smell of gasoline and blood.

Rescue workers were trying to pry open the car doors. Archer had already been pulled out and was lying on a stretcher nearby, unconscious.

But Stella was still trapped in the passenger seat, her face pale, her breathing faint.

“STELLA!!!” Felix let out a gut–wrenching roar and, ignoring the rescuers‘ attempts to stop him, charged forward like a wild animal that had lost its cub, his eyes bloodshot.

“Sir! It’s dangerous! The car could explode!” A firefighter shouted.

Felix couldn’t hear a word! His eyes were fixed on Stella’s pale face.

He used his bare hands to tear at the twisted car door. His fingernails broke, his hands were cut and bleeding from the sharp metal, but he felt no pain.

He had only one thought.

Get her out!

“Stella! Hold on! I’m here! I’m here!” He screamed at the semi–conscious Stella inside as he frantically worked on the door, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
