On Weibo, netizens began a heated discussion—
“I was in Goldfield Plaza and personally witnessed the entire proposal. I even have a video as proof. Look, everyone.”
“A wealthy man proposed to X Entertainment’s CEO, Georgie Clementine. Moreover, this man is a close friend of Josh and Stanley Batton. Their wives were also there at the time!”
“I’m always impressed with other people’s proposals. I’m jealous.”
“Ahh, Georgie is a true winner in life. Why is she still working as X Entertainment’s CEO when she could stay at home as a housewife.”
“Am I the only one who noticed that the watch he’s wearing costs fifty million? It’s a globally limited-edition watch, too. Who exactly is this person?”
“Look at her ring. It looks super expensive. That’s the real deal. I’m so envious I could cry.”
“The proposal, the ring, and her boyfriend. I’m extremely jealous.”
They were all envious.
At the same time, marketing accounts were taking advantage of the proposal to gain popularity.
Georgie Clementine became the center of attention in the country because of the marriage proposal.
Meanwhile, the recently betrothed couple was with their closest friends, drinking and celebrating in a private room at a western restaurant.
Henry ended up drinking a lot as he was in a great mood that night.
After toasting thrice, he finally stopped drinking and hugged Georgie. “Honey, when do you want to get married to me?”
“I would prefer to have the wedding when it’s warm. Furthermore, it should be before Xyla delivers the baby or after she’s recovered,” Georgie said.
Her greatest wish was for Xyla Quest to be a part of her wedding ceremony. She was fine if others couldn’t come, but Xyla had to be there.
“Yeah, of course. I know how important Xyla is to you,” Henry immediately agreed.
He then shifted his gaze to Xyla. “We'll have the wedding before you deliver your baby. I can’t wait too long, so I’ll get an astrologer to check the best date.”
Georgie resisted when she heard him. “You know I don’t believe in superstitions.”
“I didn’t believe in them in the past either, but I read something on the internet yesterday. People say that bad luck might befall those who get married on an inauspicious day.
“It’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to these matters. After all, I don’t want to risk anything when it comes to you. I want to be with you forever,” Henry said carefully.
It was clear how much he cared about her that he didn’t want to risk their relationship being affected in any way.
Georgie felt her heart warming at his words.
Waving her hand casually, she said, “If that’s what you believe, then go ahead. Do what you need to do and decide on a date. Just let me know after that.”
He instantly nodded. “Since you’ve agreed, I’ll go to an astrologer tomorrow. We still need to order our wedding outfits, prepare a house and a car."
“A wedding can be rather complicated. On top of that, we also need to send out invitations and prepare gifts for our guests.
“Also, I must not forget about a betrothal gift for your parents, though I have yet to meet them. We should plan to meet them soon,” he went on and on.
Although he could be flamboyant at times, he seemed to take this matter seriously.
