We didn't really talk much, nor did we delve deeply into the matter. Somehow, my anger toward Felix's feigned illness dissipated just like that.
I suddenly realized that I didn't actually hate him. As he was Colin's family, he would become mine too in the future.
There shouldn't be hatred between family members.
Colin lifted my chin and gave me a sly smirk. This melted me immediately. I leaned into him, naturally wrapping my arms around his waist.
This seductive temperament of his was truly alluring.
"Tired?"
"Mm."
"Seems like you're not fit enough, my wife. You need to work out more," Colin teased me with a smirk.
My face flushed. We hadn't reached that stage yet, but it was necessary to make it clear to him. I was solving a problem for him too.
"When will you stop eavesdropping like that?"
"I was sitting so far away. How could I possibly eavesdrop? A certain someone must have spoken so loudly that even I could hear it so far away. You can only become his sister-in-law after becoming my wife. Have you thought about our marriage?"
I was caught off guard and thoughtlessly blurted out, "You haven't even proposed. Why should I think about marriage?"
Colin pressed his forehead against mine and asked me in a husky voice, "Will you marry me if I propose?" His voice was really making me weak.
"Huh?" I was dumbfounded.
Perhaps I was looking a little silly because he chuckled softly. The sound vibrating from his chest was especially seductive. "You silly girl."
