She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 925

Thankfully, Daphne slammed on the brakes just in time, or she would have face-planted right into a massive bouquet.

The man standing in front of her was holding an enormous, stunning arrangement of red roses, looking incredibly romantic.

Daphne blinked in confusion. Which patron was this, and were they trying to woo one of the Male Hosts?

Just as the thought crossed her mind, the man lowered the flowers, revealing his face.

Daphne's jaw dropped.

"Everett?"

The man holding the bouquet was none other than the guy she had been agonizing over all morning.

Everett hadn't expected to run into her so abruptly and looked a little sheepish.

"...Yeah, it's me."

They stood there staring at each other in awkward silence.

"Oh, right. These... are for you."

Everett's voice trailed off, his gaze darting away nervously.

He thrust the flowers toward her, refusing to make eye contact.

Daphne's eyes went wide, absolute delight washing over her.

She never would have imagined that these gorgeous, vibrant roses were meant for her.

She stood frozen for a second before slowly reaching out to take them.

Roses didn't have the overpowering scent of lilies, but they carried their own elegant, sweet fragrance.

The intoxicating aroma washed over her, making her feel giddy.

This was the very first time in her life she had ever received flowers.

And not just any flowers—red roses, the ultimate symbol of romance.

Clutching the bouquet and inhaling their scent, Daphne's heart hammered wildly against her ribs.

The day after her confession, he showed up with a bouquet of red roses. Did this mean...

Sensing her burning, hopeful gaze, Everett's cheeks flushed slightly as he stammered.

"So... I... I thought about it..."

Watching his retreating figure, Daphne couldn't help but giggle.

If she wasn't mistaken, he had totally been blushing.

Touching her own face, she realized her cheeks were burning up too.

Carrying the stunning bouquet inside, she felt like she was on cloud nine.

She displayed the flowers in the most prominent spot in the club, then spontaneously handed out bonus pay to all her employees.

Afterward, she ran up to her third-floor bedroom to call Melanie.

"Melanie! Melanie! Everett accepted! And he bought me flowers!"

In the CEO's office at the Royce Group, Melanie had to pull the phone away from her ear to avoid being deafened by her friend's screaming.

It was glaringly obvious how thrilled she was; her voice was so loud that Preston could hear every word from across the room.

They chatted for a bit longer before Melanie finally hung up.

"I've got some good news."

Melanie looked at Preston, feigning a dramatic air of mystery.
