“Luna, even now, you’re still so considerate!” Grant gripped her shoulders, his tone thick with pained admiration. “You have every right to be selfish! You shouldn’t have to worry about anyone else your own happiness should be enough!”

“It’s alright, Grant. I’m just thankful today’s mess didn’t drag you down with me. I could never forgive myself if it had!”
“You… you’re too selfless!”
Touched that Luna was still protecting him even in her downfall, Grant was deeply moved. He pulled her into a tight embrace.
“Grant, there’s… one last wish I have. Can you fulfill it for me?”
“Of course. Name it. If it’s within my power, I’ll make sure it comes true,” he vowed firmly.
“It is, as long as you’re willing. It definitely is.”
“Tell me.”
Luna looked up, her tear–filled eyes shining with a mix of shyness and determination. “Grant… let me be your wife. Please?”
Grant hesitated, not immediately agreeing. “I…”
Tears instantly welled up anew in Luna’s eyes. “Grant… you don’t want to?”
“No! It’s not that, Luna! I’m just… not fully prepared yet. I want to focus all my energy on my career right now.”
“But I might not have that much time to wait.” A single tear traced down her cheek. “I want a grand wedding with you, witnessed by everyone… I want to become the happiest woman in the world…
“Grant, you know how much I love you. I love you so much I’d give you everything I have…
“And… after I’m gone, the elders who’ve looked after me will extend their care to you because of me. Consider it… the last gift I can leave for you.”
Grant was profoundly shaken.
He looked down, startled, at the fragile woman in his arms, who was still planning for his

future even during her own life’s countdown. His hands trembled slightly with uncontrollable shock and elation. “Luna… so this is what you’ve been thinking?”
“Grant, I told you. I’m willing to do anything for your sake.”
Luna wrapped her arms tightly around his waist. “You’re the only one in this world I can’t bear to leave behind. I just want you to reach greater heights!”
“With your blessing, I certainly will.”
A new resolve solidified in Grant’s voice. “Then… we’ll do as you wish.”
Luna stared, disbelief quickly giving way to sheer joy. “Grant… you agree?!”
“Silly girl, proposals are a man’s job.” Grant made his promise. “Wait for me. Soon, I’ll give you a grand proposal and a wedding that will make you the envy of all Jindiwood–no, the entire world!”
Luna wept tears of happiness. “Yes!”
After hanging up, Oriana set her phone to silent and quietly continued dinner with Micah.
Not wanting him to worry, she proactively explained the whole story of what happened in the conference room.
He’d probably already heard from other sources…
But by now, she understood his subtle ways. Hearing it directly from her lips would please him immensely.
Sure enough, a visible delight softened his features.
“You are incredible today. That deserves a reward.”
Oriana hummed skeptically. “What kind of reward?”
Micah pretended to think for a moment, a smile playing on his lips. “I’ll reward you with one chance to beg for mercy tonight.”
What kind of reward was that?
She shot him an exasperated look, her ears turning pink from his teasing. “Are you sure that reward is for me, and not for you?”
To her surprise, Micah sat up straight, feigning innocence. “Whatever do you mean? I was

“…Right.”
