Justin was in his room, having changed into his tuxedo.
He took out an exquisite small box and opened it.
It was the diamond ring he had spent a long time selecting. Today, his proposal had to succeed.
Filled with anticipation, Justin placed the box into the inner pocket of his suit.
Just then, someone suddenly hugged him from behind.
Justin jumped in fright.
He turned around and saw it was Cathy.
“Justin!”
“Cathy, what are you doing? Let go!” Justin pushed her away forcefully.
“Justin, do you really not want me? You’re going to get engaged to that woman, Claire?”
“Cathy, I’ve made myself very clear. The person I love is Claire. Please stop harassing me, okay?”
Cathy smirked. “And if I insist on harassing you?”
“Cathy, we’re family. Stop causing trouble. What do you want?”
“Cancel the engagement. I want you to cancel the engagement with Claire and be with me!”
“Impossible!” Justin denied instantly.
He loved Claire. There was no way he would cancel the engagement.
“Justin, are you really this heartless?”
Justin looked at Cathy and calmed himself down. “Cathy, I’m begging you. Stop this. Don’t hurt Claire. She is the person I love most. Don’t ruin this for us, okay? Aside from that, I’ll agree to anything you want.”
“You don’t want me to hurt her? So you’re willing to hurt me? I love you too! I like you just as much! Justin, why do you only think about Claire? Cancel the engagement!”
“Impossible. Leave. I don’t want to see you.”
Justin turned to walk away.
Dylan spoke gently. “Today is Claire’s engagement. Of course I had to come! This is a big event.”
Dylan held Elena’s hand, his thumb caressing her palm.
“Tell me, did you miss me lately?” Dylan whispered in Elena’s ear.
“There are so many people here! Why are you asking that?” Elena felt a bit shy.
“Whisper it to me. Did you?”
“I did...” Elena whispered, feeling embarrassed.
“I missed you too. Like crazy. Once this is over, I’ll take you away for a trip.”
“Okay, sounds good,” Elena agreed.
“Oh my, Mr. Sinclair and Elena are certainly close. Sharing secrets?” Mrs. Carter saw Dylan and came over to make conversation.
“Mr. Sinclair and Elena are a perfect match, a match made in heaven. I wonder when we’ll be celebrating your wedding?” Robert ran over to suck up to him as well.
